Subject: Add maxlag compatibility
Please add a method to tack the maxlag parameter on to all requests with a user-defined value, and if you receive a maxlag error, wait 5 seconds then retry the request.
Sorry for delayed reply. Had some busy days. I'll try and find some time during the next week to implement this. Thanks for the feedback.

As you may have noticed, I still haven't fixed this. I'm hoping to do some coding on this today. Apologies for the wait.

Please could you give this version a test http://malus.exotica.org.uk/~buzz/cpan/MediaWiki-API-0.15.tar.gz and let me know how you get on. if it works for you then I'll make it a proper release. It handles the maxlag stuff transparently in the background (if it is enabled). The module needs a verbosity setting ideally so it can output what it is doing which would help debugging.

Version 0.16 which I have just uploaded adds maxlag capability along with some other stuff. Please do open new tickets if you have any problems with the new functionality. Best Regards Jools
