So, what's with the name? Why name an IT website after an Indian fruity drink?

Cute, easy to remember, neutral. And there is a hidden pun in there somewhere too. I imagine that it being a popular drink to cool down after eating spicy food has nothing to do with it.

Out of interest, is there a way to find out what posts your reputation points come from?

I know, I know, ego/obsession/etc... Just intriguedI've not seen any way to do that. But there are new updates coming all of the time, things like that are likely far down on the platform feature roadmap. The new version dropped yesterday so hoping to see this place update this week, but I don't know what features are coming in this update other than a lot of talk of widgets.

Someone could spend a little time and write the DB query for it easily enough

We really do need to figure that out for a variety of stuff. Building our own reporting interface for a ton of data would be useful.

That is the point of open source. build it and make a pull request. or build it as a plugin. either way.

I'm thinking that an external tool might make more sense, talking directly to the database rather than through the platform itself. Although doing it as a plugin would let us leverage the authentication system that already exists. Although plugins seem to break so often, I wonder if that is worth the effort.
