Not sure if this was an intentional change or not, but it has become apparent to a lurker like myself.

The mechanics of Whose Online have changed. Before the 21st (from memory) it would show users who loaded a page within the last half hour. Now it is showing people who were online (at a guess) up to 90 minutes ago. It is currently 3:12 for me, showing people who loaded pages at 1:55 or so. For reference, by the old standard, I'd be the only one online, but currently it is showing about half a dozen people, most of whom haven't been active in over an hour. Not a big deal, but took me by surprise. Was this change intentional?
