Changes made to the dev.citadel.org repo tonight:
1. When the server encounters a "directory" domain, it handles it as a
"localhost"
domain
2. When the text mode client encounters a "directory" domain, it changes
it to "localhost" before presenting it to the administrator
3. When WebCit (classic) encounters a "directory" domain, it places it in
the "Local Host Aliases" box
In both of the clients, saving the config makes the change permanent. For
reasons too complicated to get into here, it was easier to do it this way
than to add another upgrade module.
Next time I sit down to work on Citadel code, I'll write the UI bits to edit
a user's Internet email address[es] as part of the user configuration instead
of as part of the address book entry. Then we'll finally be done with this
not-so-little change and can move on to the next thing.
I feel good about this data
model change. It's so much cleaner. It's just a pain in the neck getting
there. And then once we've got the GAB cleaned up, perhaps it may be time
to get back to work on WebCit-NG.
