MS-Phone... For testing needed
June-18, 2013 by: Mike Harrison
From: Mike Harrison ------------------------------------------------------ The server side is written in PHP on Linux (On Topic!) Anyone got a current generation Microsoft OS / Web Browser phone I can borrow for 5 minutes to see what a web interface looks like on it? I'll buy coffee, lunch, etc.. Option B: I can pick one up on eBay or elsewhere. I know.. --Mike--

Any Co-location providers in the area?
June-13, 2013 by: Lynn Dixon
From: Lynn Dixon ------------------------------------------------------ All, It appears I may be looking for a new co-location provider. I have been at Smith and Hammaker in Knoxville for over 2 years now without any problems and HAD been a happy customer. Fast forward to today: I get an email from the new CIO telling me they "Re-evaluated their pricing to best suit everyone needs" and then he proceeded to tell me my co-location contract would be increasing from $35/month to $410/month. An increase of 12x without any notification or justification is just not good business, and I am slightly pissed as you might imagine. So, do any of you know of any good local co-location facilities in the area that have decent pricing? I really want to stay local, but I am willing to co-locate far away to get good pricing. I have had good experiences with these 2, and I may end up going with one of these guys again: http://www.serverpronto.com/colocation.php and http://joesdatacenter.com/kansas-city-colocation-server-hosting-packages Thanks!

A call to hostgator helped me to realize the .htaccess file needed to
be IN the doc root, not just above it.

remote work opportunity
March-21, 2013 by: Nate Hill
From: Nate Hill ------------------------------------------------------ A friend in California asked if I knew anyone for this job. Maybe someone on the list wants to apply. http://califaproducts.blogspot.com/2013/03/are-you-techy-consultant-whos-into.html Description: The enkiLibrary is a shared open source eBook Network that allows California libraries to own and store purchased and free digital content, to share access to more content than any individual library can purchase on its own, to add features and functionality lacking in current third-party vendor models (e.g., renewing, suspending holds, donating, circulation data transferred to ILS, etc.), and to share access to unique local digitized content with other libraries within the Network. Califa and Contra Costa County Library partnered to co-develop an open source eBook Network, shared by, and accessible to multiple library systems in California. The platform is based on the Douglas County (CO) Libraries model, which utilizes the Adobe Content Server and the open source VuFindPlus, developed at Villanova University. The Quipu Group, a software development company, is developing the initial VuFindPlus interface. Funding for this project is available through a Bay Area Library Information Systems (BALIS) Innovation Grant, LSTA monies, and Califa. This position will be part of the team making enkiLibrary happen through system administration and support of the Adobe Content Server (ACS) and the VuFindPlus open source software, including configuration, maintenance and customization of these two servers. Working Knowledge and Experience with: Open source software for next generation library catalogs and discovery tools. Database administration (MySQL, Oracle, Solr) User-facing web standards/platforms (HTML/XHTML, cross-browser CSS, Javascript, jQuery/AJAX, PHP, mobile web) Search platforms (Apache Solr) Library software applications and protocols (NCIP, SIP, APIs, user authentication, integrated library systems) Web server software -- Nate Hill nathanielhill@gmail.com http://4thfloor.chattlibrary.org/ http://www.natehill.net

Thirty years in programming, looking for something to do

------------------------------------------------------
"Most" programming languages ... Perl, Python, PHP, Ruby, Java. Usually =
the deal is that there's already some existing application out there, =
it's in serious trouble (perhaps abandoned in favor of greener climes), =
and the task is to drop in and do it, always landing "four paws down." =
There's been some stranger stuff ... Prolog, R. Never a shortage in =
this world of half-finished stuff that's been left high and dry.
Can programming-languages be a hobby? I think so. I'm always poking =
around sites learning about new ones. I've even written a few. It's =
really interesting to me, to see how programming languages work and to =
see them as a power-tool for a particular class of problem. There's a =
really challenging Terracache in this area (I think it's still alive) =
which at its various puzzle stages included both a very large Sudoku =
puzzle and a logic-problem ("The man with the blue tie is not standing =

but, geek that I am, showed that one of the clues in the logic problem =
