Graham 6-Oct-2007 [1171] | interesting |
Kaj 6-Oct-2007 [1172x2] | Starting to feel for my way? ;-) |
A basic installer is one of the next projects, but it's one of those things that I don't know when I will get to | |
Graham 6-Oct-2007 [1174] | a movie will do :) |
Kaj 6-Oct-2007 [1175] | An instruction movie? |
Graham 6-Oct-2007 [1176] | yeah .. |
Kaj 6-Oct-2007 [1177] | Do you think that would add to command-line instructions? |
Graham 6-Oct-2007 [1178] | it means I wouldn't have to read the instructions :) |
Kaj 6-Oct-2007 [1179] | You won't get away with that :-) |
Graham 6-Oct-2007 [1180] | Amazon have all those instructional movies |
Kaj 6-Oct-2007 [1181] | But I could do a slideshow when I prepare an emulator image] |
Graham 6-Oct-2007 [1182] | Only hard core users will do a console install .. so need to bridge to those others |
Kaj 6-Oct-2007 [1183x2] | Yeah, it's for hardcore and adventurous users now. After you install, you're on your own configuring, anyway |
But I made sure that all standard configurations have useful default settings, unlike most Linuxes | |
Graham 6-Oct-2007 [1185x2] | We moved our daylight saving this year ... |
I think all my linux boxes have the wrong time. | |
Kaj 6-Oct-2007 [1187] | If you're installing on a stand-alone machine, you could get away without configuring anything, and with a different partition setup you only have to modify the filesystem table, which is standard practice for Unix types |
Graham 6-Oct-2007 [1188] | and there doesn't appear to be a fix for windows 2000 |
Kaj 6-Oct-2007 [1189] | Yeah, I read Debian refused to update it? |
Graham 6-Oct-2007 [1190] | Will Syllable be better ? |
Kaj 6-Oct-2007 [1191] | Eventually... |
Graham 6-Oct-2007 [1192] | Support NZ's new daylight saving hours? |
Kaj 6-Oct-2007 [1193] | We don't do timezone database updates yet, but we've been discussing it |
Graham 6-Oct-2007 [1194x2] | my rebelBB.cgi script has stopped working |
because the imap server thinks the time is wrong and keeps shutting down :( | |
Kaj 6-Oct-2007 [1196] | Yet another REBOL bulletin board? :-) |
Graham 6-Oct-2007 [1197] | Yep .. French one |
Kaj 6-Oct-2007 [1198] | Of course I'm planning my own :-) |
Graham 6-Oct-2007 [1199] | uses an IMAP server to store the messages |
Kaj 6-Oct-2007 [1200] | Integrating with legacy stuff always brings headaches |
Graham 6-Oct-2007 [1201] | perhaps I should just use UTC and forget about it |
Kaj 6-Oct-2007 [1202] | I can already see why I wouldn't want to use that one |
Graham 6-Oct-2007 [1203x2] | I think it's just a very finicky imap server .. dovecut .. that I picked |
dovecot | |
Kaj 6-Oct-2007 [1205] | Years ago I chose Cyrus. Not sure if that's still the best |
Graham 6-Oct-2007 [1206] | How about a vmware image ?? |
Kaj 6-Oct-2007 [1207] | My project leader is working on it, but we're going to release images a few days later |
Graham 6-Oct-2007 [1208x3] | Cool .. |
I can wait for that. | |
Include Rebol and Cheyenne :) | |
Kaj 6-Oct-2007 [1211] | Core is included. I've never tried Cheyenne yet. Is it hard to set up? |
Graham 6-Oct-2007 [1212x2] | no, runs out of the box |
I presume that you don't have Apache? | |
Kaj 6-Oct-2007 [1214x2] | Yes, an Apache package is linked from the README |
How big is Cheyenne? Does it require Apache? | |
Graham 6-Oct-2007 [1216x3] | few hundred kbs |
and no, doesn't need Apache | |
Might inspire doc to finish the web console if you release it as the default web server :) | |
Kaj 6-Oct-2007 [1219] | OK. It's not really something that qualifies for our criteria to ship in the base system. We wouldn't include Apache, but most of the REBOL stuff is so tiny that we might as well throw it in :-) |
Graham 6-Oct-2007 [1220] | I use Cheyenne for my web portal .. works fine. |
