I'm re-posting this so that it will get picked up by the main Bug Fixes
Archive page ( http://swiki.gsug.org/sqfixes ) and be visible in the
default Bug Fixes Archive Viewer. Andreas's bug report is below, with
my comments following.

The following should be fixed in the 1.23 BFAV release:
- the HTTP-get should handle server-not-responding better
- error messages should not get saved to the file repository anymore
- the BFAV will check there are no gaps in the list of posts that it has
loaded, after each "load updates"
- if there are gaps, the BFAV will try to load the missing posts
This bug could use a lot of test-love. Volunteers to install and test
the latest BFAV from SqueakMap?
