Just a quick question regarding the sorted list for main tanks: does calling GetSortedTanks return both private and public main tanks, or just public? If it's both, is there any way to get only public main tanks? Also, is the order of public main tanks the same for everybody running oRA3?

Sorting is personal. Order of blizzard maintanks is random.
I thought the entire purpose of the oRA3 main tank stuff was to provide a way to sort the Blizzard main tanks that was consistent across everybody using oRA3?

I just want to make sure I'm understanding correctly...
Calling GetSortedTanks returns PersonalTanks+BlizzTanks in the order defined in your oRA3 window. However, there's no way to get only Blizz tanks from oRA3, and even if there was, there's no way to guarantee a consistent ordering across all members of the raid?
Also, not to be argumentative, but where is the "Sorted" part in "GetSortedTanks()"? It almost seems like it should be called "GetListedTanks()" because if I'm reading you correctly, there's no actually sorting going on.
It also might be nice to have a function called "GetBlizzardTanks()" that only returns Blizzard tanks, as opposed to all tanks. Likewise, there could be a similar function called "GetPersonalTanks()" that would return only private tanks.
Can we get an option for whether we want readycheck results announced to raid please?
(So I don't have to go comment it out myself)
This is new behavior with r462 and there are guilds (mine for example)
that like to keep these things out of public channels.
(we do readycheck 'votes' for extending raid time past officially planned
and posting results on /ra puts undue pressure on those that need to leave
as a specific example if needed)
I'm not sure if it's even intended as it's the assistants doing the /ra announce
and there seems to be a sysprint to give them 'personal' info there anyway.
Why would there be a raid-wide announce... out of control of RL and Assistants.
I have some display issues with the cooldown display. Notice both screenshots: On both the text sometimes boldens, don't know why. As a second request, the Name-server format clutters the display and the -server part could be stripped out.
When using ORA3 with BigWigs, the ORA3 Cooldown bars are coming up different sizes, one will be normal size (as seen when running test bars) and others will be larger in scale.
This only happens when BigWigs is running. I made a ticket on ORA3 but that appears to have gone missing.
Sounds like a bug in LibCandyBar-3.0, which is the library both oRA3 and BigWigs use to create and manage timer bars. Post a ticket on its project page: http://www.wowace.com/addons/libcandybar-3-0/
I've been using r516 with no troubles for most of Cata. For 5.0.4, you need to open up oRA3.lua and change all "UIPanelButtonTemplate2" instances to "UIPanelButtonTemplate" (i.e., just remove the trailing '2'). There are three instances, make sure you get them all.
I haven't tried some of its functionality yet, like setting MTs.

you misunderstood

And of course they are sorted. Its just that YOU decide how to sort them, and not some raid leader.
