Private Instructables: a warning. Answered

Folks, a warning about "Private" instructables; if you make it public, the "published" date does not change.

I started an instructable as an idea a *long* time ago, but finally got around to making it real today. Unfortunately, when if wrote the draft, I accidentally made it private.

So, although i just finished it, it looks like I've got a project that has gone four years without a view.

Not complaining, just warning others.

Haha, no, I deleted the project when I found out it was going to look four years older than it really is.

I've written a fresh version, which I'm going to publish on Monday.
