AltME groups: search

And it's just a S3 bucket confiured as a website which keeps my costs 
down.

As you can see, I was having trouble as this new install populated 
lists: any time that I hit the enter key the post vanished but the 
list would not refresh by just going to another topic and returning 
to this altme topic.  Hence the 3 stutters in trying to report what 
may be a known issue as I was not sure if my post was in limbo or 
lost in the ethereal bit bucket

Crud, brief synopsis:

	write s3://<bucket>/my-file.txt "My File"

 write/custom/binary s3://<bucket>/my-png.png read/binary %my-png.png 
 [read]
	editor s3://<bucket>/my-file.txt
	layout [image load s3://<bucket>/my-png.png]

Requires AWS key and secret.

for now it seems that VID is just a bucket to randomly throw widgets 
in at your own whim. this should of course not go away, but higher 
level structures would be nice to have. there could be Dialog, Two-pane, 
Three-pane, Preferences (which provides a list in the left side and 
switchable pane in the right side).

Hope that is being tossed into the bit bucket

One thing I was considering.. rather than paying for expensive servers, 
like amazon EC2,  to host low usage sites, you could run mulitple 
copies of Cheyenne that would sync up.. and maybe an S3 bucket for 
data.. one at home, one at work etc. .. couple these with dynamicDNS 
so in the event one went down, the other(s) could detect that, and 
update the DNS to take over.  Could do some DNS based load balancing 
if necessary.  If you want to get real crazy.. you could share backup 
servers amongst agreeable Cheyenne users...probably wouldn't host 
e-commerce that way, but wikis / publicly available data would be 
fine.
