Nathan, Thanks for redoing the website for us.
No apologies neccessary. You are doing us a great service, and I think you have every right to all the polite and thoughtful assistance from the group that you desire. I think the website looks great, the calendar tool tips are cool too. I may have chosen the google calendar option, because it would be easier for untrained personnel. But we aren't in the linux group for an easy time, so I say do it your way. I'll be happy to see and use the new website. Thanks again for all your efforts. -- Pat On Tue, Jul 6, 2010 at 10:11 PM, Nathan W <nat...@nathanewilliams.com>wrote: > Apologies in advance for continuing to hit the mailing lists with > requests for feedback, but i'm really getting to the point where > community input is preferable for the last few bits. > > *ahem* this one's a scorcher, ye been warned. > > 2 quick things, only one of which requires feedback. > > quick one first: the calendaring solution has been set up and is > functional, rather than using a third party solution ala google calendar > (oh how i loathe to trust a 3rd party w/ critical functionalities), i've > instead written a php script to generate the current months calendar, > and compare the dates to a simple csv file containing event info, > finally setting a tooltip for event days. i do plan to turn these into > links eventually, but for the moment i'm keeping that one back until the > wiki is set up and ready. > if you wanna see it in action, same url as before: > http://nathanewilliams.com/projects/pdxlinux/ > if you happen to wanna look at teh codez: > http://www.badgerbait.net/offtopic/php-calendar-from-a-csv-file (note > this site's been getting hammered by spambots, so may be a little slow > tonite) > > > second: here's a cleaned up (lots of dead links) and slightly fleshed > out (as much as prior knowledge and a cursory google search could) > version of the NW Linux Groups/Businesses list from the current site's > resources list. if you know of a group i've left out, please add their > info at the url below, and i'll add to the list before updating the site. > > http://pastebin.org/384933 > > alternatively, this could go into a wiki article, but then i don't know > what i'd put into side-nav... maybe a local it jobs rss feed or > something... > > thanks for your continued patience and advice/opinions folks, we're > almost there w/ the site. > > regards, > > nathan w > _______________________________________________ > PLUG mailing list > PLUG@lists.pdxlinux.org > http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug > -- p.j.timl...@ieee.org www.timlick.com 503-476-3119 10990 NE Paren Springs Rd.
