Why does the sitemap generator add an &language=en to the end of the urls?
Urls look fine with that exception. The &language=en will create duplicate urls in google. How do you drop that?

I am still getting the Yahoo! ping error... anyone else experiencing this?
Other than that, everything is working fine for me.
Make regular site and database backups!
MSN has a new ping url. The new url is - http://www.bing.com/webmaster/ping.aspx?siteMap=%s.
<h4>Ping Yahoo!</h4>

In sitemap setup, Google XML Sitemap Admin, when you click on STEP 1 [HERE] what should you see int he pop up window? Your web site or the XML sitemap? I am assuming if your web site pops up the Sitemap files are NOT being found??
Can somebody CONFIRM which file is uploaded in Google , I am getting TWO different answers. Is it:
A. googlesitemap.php?inline=yes
or
B. sitemapindex.xml
The &language=en will cause duplicate url issues in Google if you already have a lot of pages indexed. So if the majortity of your site is indexed, do not use the sitemaps with those urls ending in the &language=en because it will kill your rankings.
