Sorry for not getting back to you earlier on this. The email ended up in
the grayzone that is "deal with this later"-emails...

Maybe we fixed them at the very same time? There is no locking for edits
on that page, so if you started editing it and I also started editing it
before you saved, I got the non-fixed version.

requires someone with a browser...
