Stats and Top Projects
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear SourceForge.net User, In my last email to you, I mentioned that
the biggest issue with the running of the site is managing our growth.
Adding 700 new users and 70 new Open Source projects a day can, at
times, create strain on critical systems that drive the site. As you
may have noticed, CVS is visibly having growing pains. Due to system
load, we have had to move anonymous checkouts to our backup server.
This has made the code of our 65,000 projects more accessible. However,
since data is synchronized from the primary CVS servers to the backup
CVS servers at specific times during the day, it has also caused up to
a 24 hour delay in getting the freshest code on the site. I know this
temporary solution has frustrated some of you and I want to apologize
for that. The good news is, in the very short term, we will have a
solution that will solve this issue. We are upgrading our hardware from
one aging system to six new speedy boxes; this hardware is a portion of
the new CVS infrastructure that we are implementing to improve CVS
performance and reliability. The solution will be in place by the time
I write you next month. You'll know when we make the change. It will be
hard to miss. In the mean time, hang in there. I know it's frustrating,
but help is on the way. As always, if you have some feedback or issues
related to the site, please feel free to email me directly at
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Patrick McGovern Director, SourceForge.net [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Revolution OS -------------------------------------------- I want to
bring an excellent documentary about Open Source to your attention, now
on DVD. It's called 'Revolution OS' and it does a remarkable job giving
the history of Free Software, Open Source Software, Linux and why
sites, such as SourceForge.net, exist. All the fathers of the Free/Open
Source movement are interviewed, including: Linus Torvalds, Richard
Stallman, Bruce Perens, Eric Raymond, Brian Behlendorf, Michael
Tiemann, Larry Augustin, Frank Hecker, and our very own Rob Malda from
Slashdot.org I have shown the DVD to a number of family and friends.
Not only did they find it interesting, they also better understood what
I did for a living (which was a bonus). It's available now on a few
sites, including our sister site Thinkgeek.com. Netflix has it
available for rental as well.

Month: Tiki --------------------------------------------- Keeping a
busy web site up-to-date with fresh, engaging content is hard work.
There are timelines, multiple contributors, editing of content, and the
graphical layout of the site. Content Management System (CMS) is a
class of software that aims to make all these chores easy.
SourceForge.net's July project of the month, Tiki, is a project that
executes on this promise and sports the latest content management
features including: Wikis, Forums, Article/Submissions, Journals,
templates and 370 other features. Tiki has been on SourceForge.net
since October, 2002 and currently enjoys an activity ranking in the top
ten of our 65,000 projects. The code is licensed under the LGPL and
will run on any web server supporting PHP. The SF.net team is proud to
make Tiki project of the month. Project page:

http://tikiwiki.sourceforge.net AMD Quad Opteron System on Compile Farm
--------------------------------------------- Are you curious how your
latest code runs on a 4-way 64bit Opteron system? Now you can find out
using the latest addition to Sourceforge.net's compile Farm. AMD has
been kind enough to provide SF.net hardware for the community to use.
Running SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 this new system is now available
for you to use. Enjoy! The SF.net team would like to give a big thank
you to AMD for their support. To find out more about the compile farm:

Download and CVS Statistics Update
--------------------------------------------- As we covered in our
previous site-wide newsletter, work is under way To correct
inaccuracies with the download statistics system. As of the beginning
of this week, all required code changes have been made, testing of the
new code has been completed, and we have started reprocessing the log
data used to generate download statistics. Current (i.e. for recent
dates) download statistics are expected to be accurate; most projects
will notice an increase in their download counts. We expect this
statistics regeneration to take a couple weeks. Aggregated statistics
(such as project activity percentile) are also expected to change as
the download statistics are regenerated. CVS statistics data will also
be reprocessed, pending completion of the download statistics
correction. Nightly Tarball Changes
--------------------------------------------- Nightly CVS tarballs are
generated automatically for all hosted projects, as part of our project
CVS service. Information about nightly CVS tarballs may be found in the
Site Documentation and on the CVS section of the Project Admin pages.
In early August, the nightly CVS tarballs generated for each project
will be changing format from gzip-compression to bzip2-compression.
bzip2 compression/decompression tools are available for all major OS
platforms; use of bzip2 for compression represents a significant space
savings over gzip compression. Additional information regarding this
change will be provided on the Site Status page (link found in left
navbar) during the last week of July. SourceForge.net Site Enhancements
--------------------------------------------- In the past month, a
number of enhancements have been made to the SourceForge.net site; most
of these enhancements focus on improving the project support process.
Major enhancements include: - A special search page has been added
(https://sourceforge.net/support/filefinder.php) to allow you to search
through the files released by SourceForge.net projects, based on a
known file name. Users who download software from a SourceForge.net
project sometimes forget which project the software came from,
complicating their lives when they need support for that software. To
help reduce this confusion, users may simply enter the file name of the
file they downloaded and they will be presented a listing of projects
that may have released that file. - The old "Contact SF.net Support"
page has been replaced with a new "Get Support" page that provides
information about project support and site support. Project
administrators may now specify (via the "Preferred Support Mechanism"
area, in the Public Info section, of the Project Admin pages) which
forum, mailing list, or Tracker they suggest their end-users use when
reporting support issues. When the "Get Support" page is accessed from
a project page, this information will be provided. When the Preferred
Support Mechanism is set, a new link will appear in the top portion of
the Project Summary page, helping direct end-users to the right support
resource. - By popular request, the SourceForge.net team now maintains
an abridged (short) version of the Site Status page. The abridged
version of the Site Status page includes only information about major
issues (i.e. site-wide issues which impact many projects) and includes
information about the scope of issues, ETA for resolution and possible
workarounds. This page is accessible from the Site Docs page (see link
in left navbar; doc C9) or from the top of the main Site Status page. -
Finally, some developers have reported confusion regarding the status
of their requests for project hosting on SourceForge.net. We now
provide a "My SF.net Projects" page, accessible from the "My SF.net"
page, which provides status information on project registrations -- you
can see whether your project registration is pending review, has been
approved, or has been rejected. The SourceForge.net team is continuing
to pursue new enhancements to the site, both based on our own
experience and based on your suggestions. If you wish to suggest a
change or enhancement to the SourceForge.net site, we may be reached
regarding issues, concerns or feedback by following the instructions

MSWL Olmec PBEM Soccer Game GPL'ed
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/07/27/197225
[0]zeb writes "[1]MSWL is one of the most popular PBEM football (soccer
for North Americans) game, which is itself a variation of a game of
postal soccer invented by Alan Parr in England around 1970. In this
game, each manager has to organise his team, manage fatigue, train his
players and trade them. Olmec is a game engine written by Alla Sellers.
It helps the commissioner (game master) to simulate the games and
publish the results. Allan has decided to release the [2]source code of
Olmec under the GPL, so that everyone can enhance the program. The
actual version of Olmec is written in Visual Basic and uses MS Access
as a database. The author suggests Olmec could be rewritten in a
multiplatform language, for example Java, using MySQL as the database.
This task is made easy because of the rich documentation about the game
engine ([3]PDF format)."

German Constitutional Court Blocks Napster Suit
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/07/27/1821219
djmutex writes "In an urgent ruling, the [0]German Constitutional Court
has temporarily blocked the Napster copyright violations class action
of several American recording companies and artists against
Bertelsmann. The court decided that the German court in Düsseldorf,
which was, according to international conventions, required to serve
the writ, may not do so until the Constitutional Court has checked that
the suit does not violate Bertelsmann's rights granted by the German
constitution. Since, according to those agreements, the service is a
precondition for both the suit to proceed in the U.S. as well as the
later acceptance of the U.S. ruling in Germany, the lawsuit is for now
halted. It is unclear when the Constitutional Court will definitely
decide, but it is not generally famed for its tempo on final rulings,
and it also stated in the [1]press release (in German) that
constitutional rights could possibly be violated if "proceedings before
state courts are obviously abused to discipline competitors through
public media pressure and the risk of a conviction"." Reuters has a

Nikon D2H: Digital Camera + 802.11b Option

can actually get solid work done seems to be after midnight under a lot
of pressure (ie. a deadline the next day). This has led to too many 5
a.m. nights and turning down too many invitations to go out only to
stay in and accomplish nothing. I have stopped playing games, stopped
watching TV, tried reading the [0] Seven Habits book, and am currently
seeing what classical music does for me. I don't think I have [1]ADHD,
and I am not sure what else to try. If it is computer work, the web is
always a click away, and I can always escape to my imagination. I know
many of you will have had the same problem. Can anyone please give
advice on how to overcome this problem, be it a little trick,
medication, or anything else?"

Slash on server running Livejournal?
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/07/24/0035257
Maybe this is the wrong venue to ask in, and I'm sorry if it is, but
this question has been nagging me for about the past week or so. I have
a personal server running Slackware 8 with a custom-compiled Apache
1.3.27 (with the appropriate mod_perl) and MySQL 4.0.13. This server is
currently running the LiveJournal server code and works quite well at
this. I'm interested in attempting to set up slash for personal use
(the Livejournal code is running for personal use as well), and herein
lies the question. Can slash be run on the same server in another
VirtualHost without having a separate apache installation/process and
doing some fancy trick with mod_rewrite? Or am I asking too much? I
will be happy to provide any further info anyone needs through e-mail
(the e-mail link above is NOT spam-armored at all).

Best hosting service for Slash?
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/07/23/1449209
I'm going to be doing some "big things" with Slashcode but am
interested in going through someone to set up Slashcode and the server,

All things come to an end and its been a wonderful ride. Today is my
last day at OSDN and this will be the last thing I will be posting on
Slashcode. It has been fun working on Slash for the last few years and
I have enjoyed working with the Slash community (tf32, ACS, vladinator,
ericdano, and many more that I am forgetting). On Monday I start work
for MySQL so I will be a bit busy for a while but I expect you will
still see Slash stuff coming from me in the future. I will continue to
be in #slash for a while, and you can still always reach me via email.
The best of luck with you and your sites, it has been great!

Multiple Instances
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/06/10/1543202
Please indulge a beginner. I currently have slashcode setup on a single
domain with its own IP address (wwwntm.biz) for testing purposes. Here
is my dilemma. I am setting up a community similar to yahoo/geocities.
It will be www.newthoughtcommunity.net and the individual communities
will be sub-domains of this domain ex;
community1.newthoughtcommunity.net, community2.newthoughtcommunity.net
etc Residents of the communities will be set up as users ex;
http://community1.newthoughtcommunity.net/user1,
http://community1.newthoughtcommunity.net/user2 etc. Directory is:
/home /newthoughtcommunity /community1 /community2 I know that slash
can be setup with virtual domains, but can sub domains have there own
instance. I need each community to have their own slash. Also. When I
set up a new instance of slash for a virtual domain, do I use the same
database and administrator with a new virtual user when I run
