[pmwiki-users] Who Uploaded for the Uploads list?

[Andrius Kulikauskas]

Hi Patrick,

Is it hard to add the date/time of the upload?
How would I do that?
And be able to get a list of just the recent uploads?
Or perhaps it seems I am wishing for the Recent Uploads functionality 
which you mentioned.
But I will check as to how much we truly need that.
