Still here!

Geeze, nothing for nearly a month and a half, and that shortly after a post talking about how I should write here weekly.

As a quick update-which I seriously need to get back into the habit of doing here, don’t I?-I’m heading to Florida starting this coming Friday the 18th, and will be there for a week. My new job is somewhat less crazy now than

I'm interested! Specifically, low-level feature implementation and bug squashing, that's my thing. HTML and JS, not so much. How would we keep in sync, by the way? Mailing-list?

[chipotle]

A mailing list's possible, or just straight email, since there's not many people involved (counting Krinndnz below and you: three; Sebkha also expressed interest a while ago but I haven't pinged him since).

It looks like you both have accounts on C&Q's Trac, too (http://trac.clawandquill.net/cnq/), although IIRC that doesn't give you access to the Mercurial repository. When my brain's in gear I'll fix that.

From experience, a mailing-list works out better even for a small number of participants, 'cause communication is just a tiny little bit smoother when you don't have to remember who to email already. But then, I do admittedly tend to be a bit too obsessive about details. :)

I've been peeking into the Trac and, uh, pondering rigging up a script to extract the sources from its Web interface so I could toy around with it, but that was still on my pile of stuff to do. It'll be easier with Mercurial access, anyway. :)

Also in, though I'm still totally an apprentice at all of these things.

Hi! I'm a friend of krinndnz's, and we were just talking about my nervous tick when it comes to coding things every now and then. I have a few weeks off of work, and I'm trying to find a project to do- when I mentioned to Krinn that I wanted to write up a writing site in PHP/jQuery, he pointed me here.

So uh... I can help, too if you need it. :)

[chipotle]

I likely will -- the site I'm working on is being coded in Python/Django rather than PHP, but I do plan to be using jQuery as the Ajax library. (Python isn't that hard to pick up, although it's decidedly different from PHP's approach to things.)

At any rate, I've friended you and given you access to back entries in the Claw & Quill list here so you can see what I've been babbling about. There's a wiki/bug tracker/etc. at http://trac.clawandquill.net/cnq/ you can visit -- I'll give you a login there so you can actually see more than just the public wiki pages shortly. (I have to create an account and send you the password in email, or through a private message here.)

Python is a language I've always wanted to learn- and I suppose I'd have no better opportunity to do so then my two week vacation away from work! :)

If you'd like to create an account for me on the trackerwhatsit, that'd be great- my email address is soleil@tixen.net.

I'd be happy to help with jQuery and Javascript things- and if I manage to obtain a reasonable enough grasp of Python over the next few months, I'd happily help in that department as well. I have been the "webmaster" for Alain Pinel Realtors for the past two years now- I add quotes as I do mostly web development. For a few examples of my work, check out the development blog I write for projects completed for APR.

• CSSW
