| 15:22.53 | tierra | I used to hate Trac so much, but now that I've been forced into using it, I've come to like it actually... if your project is using SVN, it's almost a no-brainer |
| 15:23.20 | unum | ya |
| 15:24.43 | tierra | I just wish they would fix up their MySQL support so it's actually usable |
| 15:25.10 | josephscott | herlo: do you know who runs openclue.org? |
| 15:25.14 | tierra | you don't really have much choice other than to use PostgreSQL |
| 15:30.09 | Heartsbane | josephscott: gabe gunderson |
| 15:30.50 | josephscott | any chance we can get him to make it only subscribe to posts of those blogs that actually talk about open source? it's pretty useless in its current state |
| 15:31.06 | josephscott | carmony: http://blogs.sun.com/zoran/entry/scaling_memcached_500_000_ops because you were interested earlier :-) |
| 15:32.06 | Heartsbane | josephscott: not likely as I understand it that would require everyone to use a category and/or him to police what goes out after being aggregated |
| 15:32.19 | Heartsbane | josephscott: I feel your pain |
| 15:32.54 | Heartsbane | and since gundy is trying to get his business solvent, he might not want to focus on that right now |
| 15:33.00 | josephscott | just subscribe to a category/tag feed for each blog, then people can easily complain about individual bloggers |
| 15:33.08 | tierra | Planet Gnome does the same thing fairly often unfortunately |
| 15:33.18 | Heartsbane | yes |
| 15:34.03 | josephscott | going with a specific category/tag feed seems like the obvious direction to go, it's what http://planet.wordpress.org/ does, seems to work well |
| 15:34.13 | Heartsbane | josephscott: we are working on something like that for planet.utos.org |
| 15:34.51 | carmony | thanks josephscott :) |
| 15:34.52 | Heartsbane | you more than welcome to help us make those changes |
| 15:35.01 | Heartsbane | s/you/you are/ |
| 15:36.20 | josephscott | I still haven't been able to make the link between credit card reform and utah open source ;-) |
| 15:36.44 | Heartsbane | what? |
| 15:37.22 | tierra | textpattern has had the ability to subscribe to RSS feeds of only certain categories for years now... I assume Wordpress can do it too |
| 15:37.44 | josephscott | http://planet.utos.org/ |
| 15:38.00 | josephscott | tierra: yep, easy to do in WP |
| 15:38.02 | tierra | I think the real problem is that the people requesting to be subscribed don't understand |
| 15:39.12 | HumanCell | josephscott: no separation of credit and source ... |
| 15:39.59 | cro | anybody know anyone that works at XMission? |
| 15:41.32 | josephscott | HumanCell: I think planet style sites are common enough that many people understand how they work (at least their target audience likely does) so getting bloggers who are part of one to use a specific category/tag is a small thing to ask |
| 15:44.02 | HumanCell | josephscott: categories have been valuable since the very beginning ... and don't seem to be used as much as they could be ... is it the ease of use that is missing? Or the concept? |
| 15:44.43 | josephscott | I suspect the concept, since these are the only planet sites that suffer from this problem |

| 16:12.34 | herlo | josephscott: planet.utos.org and openclue.org are two different entities, but Gabe and I discussed this long ago and I suspect openclue hasn't been updated in over a year. |
| 16:13.02 | josephscott | they both suffer from the same problem though, even if they are run by different people |

| 16:14.45 | josephscott | would be helpful to have some sort of contact info on the http://planet.utos.org/ page so we know how to let you know about blogs in your planet that are posting completely unrelated items |
| 16:15.16 | herlo | josephscott: you know, I've been meaning to do that for a while. |
| 16:15.19 | carmony | ;) |
| 16:15.47 | josephscott | carmony: 'tis true, that's why only posts I tag with 'wordpress' show upon the wordpress planet :-) |
| 16:15.57 | herlo | josephscott: wanna write a patch? I would be happy to accept it, since it is open source :) |
| 16:16.11 | josephscott | I'm not on any of the utah open source planet sites, so I should be safe :-) |
| 16:16.40 | herlo | you're not? |
| 16:16.43 | josephscott | herlo: a patch? how about just a contact link in the side bar area of http://planet.utos.org/ |
| 16:16.57 | herlo | josephscott: yeah, it's a simple patch then isn't it? |

| 16:21.07 | herlo | josephscott: again, I can edit it, but it's about time. If you have a few minutes, it's pretty easy to hack. It's currently low on my list of priorities |
| 16:21.32 | herlo | josephscott: http://planetplanet.org <-- this is the software I use to run the planet |
| 16:21.37 | josephscott | fine, you give me access and send me login details and I'll edit it |
| 16:22.01 | herlo | josephscott: I will give you all the code you need in a tar file... |

| 16:45.06 | Lone_Wanderer | since when should we listen to the industry when they complain about laws that will restrict their rights to abuse people? |
| 16:45.44 | carmony | Gah! Its always embarresing when your "Related Post" plugin puts ASP.NET stuff that will show up on a Open Source Planet site ;) |
| 16:45.45 | utahcon | Lone_Wanderer: agreed |
| 16:46.00 | Lone_Wanderer | It's like henchmen saying "You know if you make whipping people who are in debt to our masters illegal, we'll be out of a job! You're creating unemployment by making beatings and thumb-breaking illegal!" |
| 16:46.02 | herlo | josephscott: patch is in place |
| 16:46.10 | herlo | should be up on the next run... |
| 16:46.37 | utahcon | herlo: did you ever have any luck with the patch for utos-conman + scale? |
| 16:47.00 | carmony | josephscott: thanks, I can't believe I waited until now to try memcached |
| 16:47.32 | josephscott | carmony: something you do have to be careful once you are using memcache is what happens when memcache goes offline or all data in it gets invalidated, can you servers last long enough to repopulate the cache |
| 16:48.04 | josephscott | we've melted a few db servers when we invalidated all of the data in memcache |
| 16:48.20 | utahcon | josephscott: what is the option there? |
| 16:48.27 | utahcon | how do you get around that? |
| 16:48.37 | josephscott | make sure you have enough capacity for the situation |
| 16:48.38 | carmony | yeah, when I flush it slows down so its noticable, but the site runs |
| 16:49.11 | josephscott | that's good, better than going down completely |
| 16:49.31 | carmony | ok, Zend Studio is starting to piss me off... |
| 16:49.40 | utahcon | josephscott: so don't use it as a crutch is what you are saying |
| 16:49.56 | herlo | utahcon: haha, nope. Meant to get working on it last night actually |
| 16:50.16 | josephscott | or at least be aware that it's a crutch and that you can hop on one leg long enough to pick it up again :-) |
| 16:50.20 | utahcon | herlo: it's all good |
| 16:50.22 | herlo | utahcon: but here's what I am thinking. I'm going to start holding monthly hackfests (maybe up it to bi-weekly later on) |
| 16:50.47 | utahcon | herlo: I am in for monthly (bi-weekly) hacks |

| 18:47.10 | fungus | tierra: what is your alternative? and don't say OpenOffice. |
| 18:47.13 | jsmith | The best part (in my opinion) is the separation between *content* and *presentation*, just like (good) HTML and CSS |
| 18:47.14 | herlo | I suppose you could do it with other tools, but I've never found one better... |
| 18:47.21 | tierra | fungus: like I said, it depends on the context |
| 18:47.37 | fungus | A technical paper. |
| 18:47.49 | jsmith | tierra: I'd be happy to go into more detail if you're open to learning something new :-) |
| 18:47.49 | fungus | A book. |
| 18:48.12 | tierra | jsmith: heh, that's one of the issues I would argue against docbook for... you always end up still mixing content with presentational markup still |
| 18:48.53 | stderr | Simple DocBook isn't so bad. |
| 18:48.57 | fungus | I keep intending to learn LaTeX, but often give up quickly. |
| 18:48.57 | jsmith | tierra: DocBook is all about tagging information as "This is a chapter" or "this is a footnote" or "this is a sidebar" or "this is a code snippet" or "this is the name of an application" |
| 18:49.00 | stderr | Simplified DocBook* |
| 18:49.18 | tierra | I'd love to dig into details, but I'm in bountiful, and I'm supposed to be in SLC in 10 mins |
| 18:49.26 | jsmith | tierra: What DocBook *doesn't* do is say what a footnote or sidebar or code snippet should look like... that's up to the XSLT |
| 18:51.26 | jsmith | tierra: When you're back online, we'll discuss further |
| 18:51.41 | jsmith | (and just for the record, I'm more than happy to learn more about LaTeX as well) |
| 19:20.58 | macnewbold | jsmith: unless you're moving into academia or serious R&D at a big company, don't worry about LaTeX |
| 19:21.09 | macnewbold | it's handy and works well for a lot of things, but there's a learning curve |
| 19:21.23 | macnewbold | and I don't see many benefits for you in LaTeX over what you can already do well in DocBook |
| 19:21.52 | jsmith | Sure... I already think I know enough about TeX to be dangerous |
| 19:22.02 | jsmith | But that doesn't preclude me from being open to learning more about it |
| 19:22.27 | jsmith | It's not my favorite, but that doesn't mean I'm closed-minded about it |

| 19:42.54 | Lone_Wanderer | Anyone here familiar with WP? |
| 19:43.30 | josephscott | Lone_Wanderer: WordPress? sure, what's up? |
| 19:43.31 | orsonj | I used it back in the days of 6.2, but not much since then |
| 19:43.59 | Lone_Wanderer | I want to have the home page on a site be editable (but only in certain fields / areas) by non-techies |
| 19:44.25 | josephscott | ok |
| 19:44.54 | orsonj | Wait, wordpress... |
| 19:45.00 | Lone_Wanderer | http://asmicms.esourcehome.com/ - no blog component or anything |
| 19:45.59 | josephscott | sure, common to use WP as a general CMS |
| 19:46.13 | Lone_Wanderer | cool |
| 19:47.02 | josephscott | is the user just going to edit the content via wp-admin? |
| 19:47.20 | Lone_Wanderer | yeah |
| 19:47.51 | josephscott | now you just need some clean URLs instead of all those page_id's :-) |
| 19:48.57 | orsonj | I guess it was 6 (dos version) and later 8 ( http://www.guidebookgallery.org/splashes/wordperfect ) |
| 19:49.12 | josephscott | Lone_Wanderer: so what was the question? |
| 19:49.19 | Lone_Wanderer | I think I got it answered in #wordpress |
| 19:49.31 | Lone_Wanderer | but basically, how do I make it so the end user can change the copy on their home page |
| 19:49.40 | Lone_Wanderer | via the wp admin |
| 19:49.54 | utahcon | Lone_Wanderer: I just setup a site with a similar intent. |
| 19:49.59 | Lone_Wanderer | cool |
| 19:50.16 | utahcon | Basically made the page static but pulled the changeable content as a blog post, and only showed 1 at a time. |
| 19:50.25 | Lone_Wanderer | I've been wanting to write some articles and put them on my site... is it possible to do that with WP? |
| 19:50.27 | Utah_Dave | orsonj: We still use WordPerfect every day. |
| 19:50.32 | utahcon | That way the user could update the content and still schedule the updates to the pages etc. |
| 19:50.33 | Lone_Wanderer | I don't want them to scroll or expire or anything crazy like that. |
| 19:51.18 | utahcon | It all came down to modifying the theme |
| 19:51.29 | josephscott | if they are comfortable editing a page or a post in wp-admin then just pull the content from that particular page or post |
| 19:51.59 | orsonj | I installed DOS and used it to get on the internet today. I had no idea that was actually possible. |
| 19:52.30 | Lone_Wanderer | I think that makes you a stud, actually. |

| 20:50.24 | Lone_Wanderer | now I'm wondering what they just played and I can't find the web page |
| 20:51.09 | Lone_Wanderer | The only thing I know about it is that it says "House - Digitally imported - sexy silky deep house music direct from New York City!" |
| 20:51.40 | olds | that's soma.fm |
| 20:51.45 | Lone_Wanderer | cool thanks |

| 20:53.28 | Lone_Wanderer | There we go, thanks Dexter |
| 20:53.31 | DexterTheDragon | its di.fm |
| 20:53.38 | olds | guess I just make stuff up |
| 20:57.58 | Lone_Wanderer | sweet, they've got a link to the track and everything |
| 20:58.02 | Lone_Wanderer | too bad it's more than $2 |
| 20:58.58 | olds | finally have a pandora station that plays pretty good music all the time |

| 21:00.42 | Lone_Wanderer | 'cause I like this enough to actually buy it. with real money. |
| 21:00.42 | olds | I just like music to drown out what's going on around me |
| 21:01.35 | utahcon | Lone_Wanderer: AFAIK |
| 21:01.40 | Lone_Wanderer | cool |
| 21:01.59 | utahcon | Lone_Wanderer: you can always get it on Amazon and be sure |
| 21:03.38 | Lone_Wanderer | Woot! They have it. |
