Just an update on the GMail delivery problems from eve-central.com. Of the 30-odd addresses subscribed from gmail, we were happily delivering mail to all of them with no bounces and other service interruptions. All it took was setting…
Read more →I’m pushing out a new update to the site today. Several new features are included and bugs are fixed:
Read more →Just a quick one, showing off a new screenshot of the trade compare tool. See it here. Also implemented is a nifty little autocomplete AJAX feature for the system and region names.
Read more →I’ve been quiet about my IRM 2 activities recently, and I apologize. This article is not really a status update, but a reflection on mapping programs such as IRM 2 to a traditional RDBMS.
Read more →I’ve taken the chance now to upgrade some of our APIs, make them more consistent, cleaner, and better documented.
Read more →Many nifty things are afoot for EVE-Central.com. For one, I migrated away from mod_python, which was hanging up the Apache process several times per day for unknown reasons. There was even a monitor script to kill -9, ipcrm, and restart…
Read more →Just a quick update highlighting what is going on in girm.it, the Git repository for IRM 2 (on Grails).
Read more →In addition to trying out new Kool-aid with Groovy and Grails, I’ve decided to move from tracking in Subversion to tracking in Git the gIRM code base.
Read more →Just a quickie. A few screenshots presenting IRM on Grails. Developed much faster than my previous solution, and in general making me feel a lot better about its direction
Read more →Its me again, and this time I bring news of lessons learned with the current development work on IRM 2.
Read more →So, long story short. I have a ThinkPad T60P, non-widescreen edition. I run Ubuntu 7.10 Gustry on it (after Windows did a suicide on its self).
Read more →atphttpd is another old software application from the my software archives. Its a very simplistic, memory caching web server, back when it was all the rage to develop web servers, especially for performance It achieved quite some good…
Read more →Just a quick update: I’m trying to push IRM 2 first alpha out once I’ve converted over to using Tapestry 5.0.6 (from 5.0.5). I’m finishing up the initial storage manager in the mean time and hope to have something usable soon
Read more →Just keeping everyone up to date – work on IRM2 is continuing. I’m trying to wrestle the beast which is the abstract storage manager into something, well, more manageable.
Read more →So, whats been going on? Well, I’ve moved cities over this past month, and still not totally done, which has put a damper on software development efforts to say the least. I’m going to resume working on IRM1.6 and IRM2 in a short while,…
Read more →We’re just busy wrapping up some silly bugs in the IRM 1.6 codebase and trying to get an RC out the door ASAP.
Read more →Work is progressing well on an interim release of IRM, to be called 1.6, from the original code base.. This is where most of my development time has been going these past two weeks. This is an effort to provide useful fixes and…
Read more →I get the occasional question about someone's browser being seemingly stuck in "IGB" mode. Usually, its not actually stuck, the user was simply expecting some more graphical pizzaz out of EVE-Central.com.
Read more →Hoax maybe, but it is funny. I present you with a good example of how not to ask a question.
Read more →This one took awhile to figure out. In Tapestry, if a component is passed to another component (such as your main page layout component), you need to pass it as a Block parameter. The problem with blocks, there is no quick way to render…
