Hi Aran, I just called Xtra regarding the static ip for Azzuro, they reckon it's been set up since the 8th of December, but that the modem needs to be rebooted after the change has taken place (from dynamic to static ip address). I will see if someone can go in and check on the server since Xtra reckon the line and fixed ip are working fine.--Milan 00:21, 26 Dec 2006 (NZST)


Added another A record for www pointing to wikexpert. Don't know if this will help. Called the helpdesk. They reckon it's set up ok but are going to rebuild the zone, recheck and get back to me. --Rob 20:59, 20 Dec 2006 (NZST)


G'Day Aran, would you mind resetting Spaffs password for him? He seems to have forgotten it. Cheers --Schwaney 01:35, 18 Dec 2006 (NZST)

Thanks Aran --Schwaney 02:27, 18 Dec 2006 (NZST)
Sorry mate, what did you reset the password to? --Schwaney 02:44, 18 Dec 2006 (NZST)

Hey, you doin okay? drink some grapefruitjuice and exercise (preachin' to the choir) --Phalseid 22:07, 16 Dec 2006 (NZST)

I'm alright, I'm never in the mood for socialising :-| (also, we don't have enough bandwidth for video here in NZ) --Nad 22:12, 16 Dec 2006 (NZST)

Are you going to Angela's party? What time is it?

No I'm not in the mood for socialising, I guess it'd be normal sort of evening time like 8pm or so... --Nad 05:04, 16 Dec 2006 (NZST)

Yo, heres that transclusion link --Sven 06:44, 15 Dec 2006 (NZST)


Hey Nad, Can access the PFS Wiki Proposal page now, but what I wrote up yesterday (in the requirements area) seems to have disappeared and there is no history. Any ideas? --Schwaney 00:06, 13 Dec 2006 (NZST)

Oops I deleted it, I didn't realise it was embedded in the other, I thought it was just the same content. Fixed now --Nad 00:10, 13 Dec 2006 (NZST)

Morning! Just letting you know that n0mad wiki will be going down, I am restoring the SS LAN to a simple state in preparation for my move to 28 Mako Street. Might as well take it off the sync-list, etc. I don't know whether to put it back up again either, since we've been having these hassles connecting to it and I can add content on OD for now.--Milan 08:47, 11 Dec 2006 (NZDT)


Yo, theres a good tutorial on R programming available at http://www.stat.auckland.ac.nz/~ihaka/Workshop/2006-Auckland/, of specific interest is the section on numerical programming which has an exponental function example on page 15 --Sven 14:10, 1 Dec 2006 (NZDT)


Yo, check out MediaWiki Documentation and you will see some red links, These are internal interwiki links that don't appear to be in our winterwiki table (or maybe named differently). Once embedded using [transclude|transclusion]] in User:Sven they red links are colorised green (slight bug?) --Sven 12:05, 29 Nov 2006 (NZDT)

gimme their urls (full long-form url that is, not freindly url) and can add them --Nad 12:07, 29 Nov 2006 (NZDT)
Ok, full tables is at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Interwiki_map, and the two missing appear to be (check that the name is not different for MW 1.4.x);
--Sven 13:18, 29 Nov 2006 (NZDT)
Ok done, didn't need unfreindly after all - got peer on the brain ;-)

Check out this link: http://svn.ipodlinux.org/tools/ for an example of a dynamic loader for an embedded system. --Rob 12:32, 26 Nov 2006 (NZDT)


Justin birthday Friday. Might be good to do some kind of mild debauchery. Jack 15:36, 21 Nov 2006 (NZDT)


Visit this evening? 730 ish?

Yip catchya then ;)
must be a vat (the furry kind). I've got one at home. Keeps hunting vugs and bringing them inside.

dead link http://organicdesign.co.nz/wiki/index.php?title=Organic_Design:User_preferences_help&action=edit appeared after i changed my password--Flower 17:37, 20 Nov 2006 (NZDT)

Categories: XmlWiki | XmlWiki Components

this came up when i checked for articles written by me. obviously its not, but also, its the same article that i found yesterday in the uncategorizedarticle category even though it is in a category. just thought maybe theres something wrong with the file itself?--Flower 13:59, 19 Nov 2006 (NZDT)

Yeah there are some bugs both in the xmlwiki layer and the mediawiki layer, but i can't be bothered finding them or fixing them (I'm not even going to put them in the todo!) --Nad 14:38, 19 Nov 2006 (NZDT)

just created this category cause i cant actually delete any articles, so i thought a category would be usefull to colect all rubbish and then u can delete it whenever uve time--Flower 20:46, 18 Nov 2006 (NZDT)


Thinking of catching the 5pm ferry from the city this afternoon. What do you think?

ok seeyou then...

Could you have a look in the sandbox.c and see what I am trying to do, please? :) Jack 10:55, 16 Nov 2006 (NZDT)


If I were to compile anydrive.c remotely in sandbox.c and you were to put any file called index.html in a root directory on the same drive allocation system as the sandbox, would that work? Jack 22:33, 13 Nov 2006 (NZDT)

The program itself would work the same, but the file paths are different in linux starting with a leading slash not an [a-z]: --Nad 22:43, 13 Nov 2006 (NZDT)
yep so I would have to loop with some kind of regex /*/index.html but one cant just do that in C can one? Jack 22:51, 13 Nov 2006 (NZDT)
You'd have to include a regexp lib like in peerd.c, but you can't use regexp to search a wildcard file path, you'd have to read all the items in the root dir and loop thru them checkinf for index.html (also don't do minor edits if they're not minor, since lots of people keep minor edits hidden since they're just corrections etc) --Nad 08:09, 14 Nov 2006 (NZDT)

Headings: = is the logical staring level. I'll change the css if you want to do the caretaker. All this is aesthetics of course ;) . Also, what do you think of the fuse stuff? --Rob 15:19, 12 Nov 2006 (NZDT)

Yip, I'll do the caretaker part. You'll have to explain fuse next time we go for a walk I think, it looks cool though --Nad 15:25, 12 Nov 2006 (NZDT)

Open source discussion at http://www.theregister.co.uk/2006/11/06/microsoft_novell_analysis/ - Jack 10:04, 7 Nov 2006 (NZDT)

freeky - if you're in to all that client-server-wig-head shit that is!

Have been hacking away trying to get some web interface for subversion going with websvn. Have got into a mess and now it doesn't work at all, either via web pages or via command line. I do have a checked out source tree that i've been using to try and create the setup again from scratch, but i've run out of energy for this today. I will revisit this as I do feel bad about leaving it in this broken state. No serious damage has been done though (no loss of data). I read the article about the distributed versioning system. Someone told me about some p2p svn system, maybe the same one. Rob 14:16, 5 Nov 2006 (NZDT)

I don't think we have quite a large enough SVN user base yet to warrent any stress about breaking it!
I've fixed it again now.
Ended up just importing the whole tree without externals and including build/temp files the lot. This is not very efficient but means we have everything on our server without the need for external resources. Will prune later. Rob 14:49, 5 Nov 2006 (NZDT)

Yo, have you checked out Google analytics? It provides some very nice information about url hit usage etc. You put a tag on every page which submits a small amount of info to them.

--Sven 13:25, 2 Nov 2006 (NZDT)

I don't even know where to begin with the explanation of why we're not going to put google tags in every page.....! --Nad 14:30, 2 Nov 2006 (NZDT)
I did actually check that script out a while ago tho - I kept coming across it and wondering what it was.
It can easily be removed again aswell... --Sven 10:53, 3 Nov 2006 (NZDT)

Morning Aran, I was just trying to upload an image to AWG but this error came up: The upload directory (/var/www/azzuro/wiki/images) is not writable by the webserver. - could you have a look at that please? I know we need to get the agreement in place first, but Dana understands about hours accruing, plus I thought we had that working before? Cheers, --Milan 09:57, 2 Nov 2006 (NZDT)

All the file perms were fucked up, must have missed out a step in the reinstall, try uploading again now... --Nad 10:54, 2 Nov 2006 (NZDT)

Awesome work on the "I Am That" - we have now got a very respectable collection of spiritual wisdom on OD. And the Peers have played a major role in the creation/borgification of them, that's cool. Just wanted to let you know that you should check your user talk on EA Wiki, got some Dana contract stuff in there. I hope to get it presentable before I fall over and go to sleep...--Milan 00:20, 27 Oct 2006 (NZDT)


"oligarcheous bastards", lol that's an excellent expression :-) Hey I was just setting up stuff on N0mad wiki and I noticed that Bwender hasn't copied some articles in the "Milan" category. For one, there are the subcategories, then there are the ones with "nowiki.php" applied which are embedded on my user page, such as Milan/Clock, Milan/Skype Status. Also, interestingly, User:Milan was copied but it had the name Milan on N0mad Wiki, so I had to copy the content into User:Milan there. Plus, where has the edit toolbar gone on OD? I have said in my prefs I would like to see it but it isn't there so i have to hand-type my sigs now...--Milan 17:26, 25 Oct 2006 (NZDT)

  • I hadn't noticed the toolbar disapearing again - will check it out sometime
  • Wikisync doesn't copy articles in subcats, but should have copied the category-article-content of each though...
  • Dunno why the userpage did that - might be another list-cat issue...
  • Your server is still down - I'll need the IP to check it out - probably dynamic DNS - talk:n0mad.net
OK, my ip is: 58.28.157.204. I hadn't noticed any problems and have been editing fine on N0mad Wiki but the box had indeed been turned off and I had to start it up on my return. No big rush on those sync issues, I have just let you know in the interest of smoothing out glitches in the process. For now it will be easier for me to just manually copy all my articles across that didn't work via list-cat. Wikisync is definitely a bit patchy, in the Milan/Todo Cat it only copied 6 out of 18 articles.--Milan 19:25, 25 Oct 2006 (NZDT)
Hey, I just solved the problem with wikisync, I think. Turns out that the missing articles are the ones that have been added to categories via "properties". All the ones that had the category in the article body copied fine. Would it make sense to make the list-cat wikisync feature sync the properties as well? I see you've implemented that for copy/move, which is very nice to see, it used to be quite a hassle getting those orphaned props.
I'll check it out - it should be working for properties too - copy/move not quite ready yet....
Thanks for looking at that wikiSync stuff, that rocks! If it really works like that, then i only need to add Category:Milan to wikisync to sync all my articles and categories, once I have tied together all my cats and articles. Tideeeee! Tonight we'll see how well that actuallr works...--Milan 21:37, 29 Oct 2006 (NZDT)
It doesn't do subcats, I just fixed the bugs, didn't add new features. --Nad 22:38, 29 Oct 2006 (NZDT)

That new stuff on Identity is great, really clarifies things to say that identity is the fundamental and most generic organisation. By the way, looks like the wiki workflow article got deleted off the 'pedia! Did they notify you? --Milan 00:04, 23 Oct 2006 (NZDT)

No I hadn't noticed they'd killed that one - those oligarcheous bastards won't be able to delete my articles once the projects borgified them!!!

nad, tried to ssh in, i don't know which password to use for phalseid..sorry. the only reason i need to get in is to change skins/common/wikibits.js, i need to disable the force out of iframe, if that is cool with everybody...comment out or remove the line: if( window.top != window ) window.top.location = window.location;" you need to clear the browser cache for this to have any affect. Once you do this, the wiki will no longer jump outside iframes. --Phalseid 13:09, 18 Oct 2006 (NZDT)

No problem. Login with phalseid/root passwd, then change it to your proper one once logged in --Nad 13:12, 18 Oct 2006 (NZDT)
Also you can use nano for editing instead of vi if you like, its much more intuitive keys ;-)
 :) what is the root pw? tried the VS one, is it the same for the debinaized rh? (you can answer cryptically) --Phalseid 13:17, 18 Oct 2006 (NZDT)
Same as before its on the WIKIEXPERT.COM article...
got it. changed pw. thanks....--Phalseid 13:24, 18 Oct 2006 (NZDT)

Aranm, the Azzuro ip is: 219.88.195.119--Milan 11:19, 18 Oct 2006 (NZDT)


whats the status? i just got an email from godaddy that the server was set up...??--Phalseid 14:27, 16 Oct 2006 (NZDT)
yes you dork, just do a ping and you will see that the addresses are the same. -Phalseid 14:29, 16 Oct 2006 (NZDT)
I thought you would have got three emails saying that cos that's how many times I had to nuke it before I got the debianisation process working... --Nad 14:40, 16 Oct 2006 (NZDT)

Just a minor thing I noticed, and this was the case before the move back to wikiexpert, is that the time for recentchanges is correct for me but my signatures are timestamped wrong. I don't know what the time of my sig is for you but my sig to this comment will be timestamped -13 hours, in this case to 22:12. Any ideas? --Milan 22:12, 15 Oct 2006 (NZST)

It was a problem with a hack to prevent it from defaulting to US timezone, but not needed now that we've reinstalled with NZST default --Nad 11:26, 16 Oct 2006 (NZDT)

Sorted my latest hardware program so up for a celebrate Jack 00:28, 13 Oct 2006 (NZST)

Heading over soon you mean? or just general weekend thing?
Yep how about one hour or so, that will be 2.45 or so
Ok seeyou then ;)

Yeah the cafe's up and running, the laptop has stopped running reliably, so i'm now needing a new one (with warranty!) to replace it. I'm on a desktop with a CRT (lol) and other people need workstations too so I'll set another up later today, but the main thing is to get productive again on OD. See how you feel tomorrow re party but whatever works, i can pick you up too. Kat is keen to meet you after hearing all the sordid tales :-)--Milan 22:40, 12 Oct 2006 (NZST);

I just don't know anyone there and they all have different outlooks than the project eg intellectual property etc so I'd probably just be having frsutrating conversations anyway. I'll catch up with your new misses another time. --Nad 23:39, 12 Oct 2006 (NZST)

visit on boat this arvo? Probably 5:30 depart city. Confirm? --Rob 03:13, 11 Oct 2006 (NZST)

Okidoki see you then - shall I meet you there, or is the time not definate?
On schedule: 5:30 sailing from City.
