I'm getting a few report of session timeouts while submitting. I've
increased the timeouts to 30 minutes. That should help out.

Why does it need to time-out at all?
It's not like there's a major risk of a security violation if someone else
uses my PC and it's still logged in is there.
It took me more than 30 mins to decide what I wanted to write in the
description section (I was watching TV & cooking, not just writing!).

At a guess, it's not a cookie timeout, but a connection-to-the-server
timeout.

Usually because the server allocates some resources for
each session and needs to get rid of them at some point even
if the user goes away without logging out explicitely.

Oh and if you happen to use Firefox have a look at

This is exactly the case. Every session uses memory space on the
server. Timeouts are the only effective way of getting rid of that
space. The problem is made even worse with the IRTC site because if you
aren't logged in, every page on the web site creates a new session.
This is the only way to get the bookmarkable URL's. These sessions will
only disappear on timeouts.

maybe it's possible to have a different timeout for for these
sessions (= not logged in). After all, no lengthy forms need to
be filled out when just browsing the site.
