Yes.  And I never did update the babase database either.
Just how much warning do I need to give people?  I guess it
won't be an issue much longer for me, but it probably will
for you and Lacey when you update the db because some
things will be updated before others.

Let's talk about it on the phone.  I think maybe the
top of the wiki could be a status page saying what's
updated.

We got a bit lucky with this one.  I don't think the rules
can catch this kind of error every time.

Yes.  Could you please fix and upload.  Then I'll run a new conversion.

I modified fake_cycgaps and undo_fake_cycgaps.  Easy enough to undo
but I'd rather use your copy if you've got one.  Let me know if
you upload those too.
