new bug in the request system
by Aaron Cannon 24 Sep '05

24 Sep '05

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello all. It seems as something has been changed on Ibiblio, and the pages aren't refreshing properly. They are getting cached for some reason. This causes requests to appear as though their status hasn't changed, when in fact it has. The temporary solution to this is hitting refresh every time the page. The permanent solution will hopefully be up by the end of the day. By the way, does anyone know what the directive is that will force a page to be refreshed each time it is viewed? In the long term, I will eventually be switching the system over to use MySQL. We're currently using a flat file, but it isn't a great way to do things, and has been slowing down more and more. Unfortunately, the MySQL server that Ibiblio offers is a nightmare. It is way too over loaded, as Marcello can attest. So, I have asked permission from Greg to put it up on snowy (a machine run by Greg Newby). We'll see what he says. Thanks for your help!

a survey
by Aaron Cannon 18 Sep '05

18 Sep '05

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'm curious if you all think it would be appropriate to send a survey to some or all of the people who have previously received discs from us? The purpose would be to aid us in developing new DVDs and CDs. The reason I ask is because we haven't asked permission to do so, but on the other hand, we did give them something for free, and it would of course be optional. Any thoughts?
