[AOLSERVER] Compression
So, from my reading, its seems as though that in 4.5, we got on the fly ADP page compression. However, it seems as though there isn't comparable functionality for Tcl files (i.e. ns_return). I know there are some work arounds, but I was just curious why this was not implemented in the core? I took a look at the sources, and it looks fairly straight forward to add this functionality. I see there are three possibilities: 1) modify ns_return to take a flag. The optional connid parameter makes parsing the args a little trickier. Current: ns_return ?connid? status type string (is connid ever used??) New ns_return ?connid? status type string ?gzip? OR ns_return ?connid? status type string ?-gzip boolean? 2) add a new command similar to the workarounds: ns_returnz status type string 3) Expose Ns_ConnSetGzipFlag to the script level. This would be most similar to how the ADP compression is done Or, am I missing something here? Is there already a way to do this (without workarounds)? Thanks, --brett p.s. I'd really like on the fly compression for static files as well (yes, I know there are work arounds). You rock.

Re: [AOLSERVER] Compression
Hey John,
I use something similar...in fact I think I stole it from an older post from
you, IIRC. However, I guess my point was, that the mechanism is all there in
4.5. The *only* thing that is needed for ns_return's to return compressed data
is to set a flag (via Ns_ConnSetGzipFlag)...that's it. It's seems like a shame
to me to let that go to waste...
Thanks,

Well, at least he has a goal to achieve, and once we attract 'people' who are interested in developing beta grade software, we will surely get there very quickly. A cute logo isn't going to attract the level of developer who would be able to maintain AOLserver, much less provide a useful enhancement. But like I said: why not figure out what needs to be done...first. IMHO, by advertising the stability of the AOLserver API, you will attract users who would otherwise be correctly scared off by constant hacking. Another thing which might attract interest is if our current community members would write a brief application note explaining how they use AOLserver, and why they chose it over other potential platforms. Additionally, we could catalog sites known to run on AOLserver. My guess is that developers who have similar interests and motivations or similar problem solving skills as current community members will be attracted to the community. Given the fact that there have been only a handfull of CVS commits in the last year, I would venture to guess that most community members are happy with the current codebase, and that means that new community members will probably be looking for a mature project which allows them to focus on their own application, at least at first. Then, they may contribute a module which extends AOLserver. A quick look at all the modules in CVS suggests that this is the best way to contribute code, not by hacking on the core. Change for the sake of change will scare off any sane developer, we don't charge for upgrades, please remember this fact. tom jackson -- AOLserver - http://www.aolserver.com/ To Remove yourself from this list, simply send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the body of SIGNOFF AOLSERVER in the email message.

Re: [AOLSERVER] Minor facelift to aolserver.com
Good one there, Brett. As a suggestion: save it as PNG, that way colours won't change. Also, you can try starting the lines from the L itself, or more to the right than they're now. Or you can make them fade in from the L too... I don't know how to fix it exactly, but that I like the lines is a fact :) Good work :) On Tue, 2008-04-08 at 15:42 -0700, Brett Schwarz wrote: Something sort of like this, is what I was thinking about: http://www.bschwarz.com/aolserver2.jpg Although the orange color kind of changed when it was converted to jpgit was originally more like what Juan had... - Original Message From: Brett Schwarz [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: AOLSERVER@LISTSERV.AOL.COM Sent: Tuesday, April 8, 2008 1:58:01 PM Subject: Re: [AOLSERVER] Minor facelift to aolserver.com I like the color.

BTW, are there any legal matters that we need to be concerned with in creating a logo for aolserver? Good question. I really should have a serious conversation with AOL Legal about this issue. I'm hoping that as long as we stay away from the actual AOL logo treatment itself, we'll be okay ... but I'd like to get that in writing. -- AOLserver - http://www.aolserver.com/ To Remove yourself from this list, simply send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the body of SIGNOFF AOLSERVER in the email message.

Re: [AOLSERVER] Minor facelift to aolserver.com
OK, so I added one more horizontal line (so now there are 4 instead of 3), and added a slight single pixel step, to try and match the slant of the L. http://aolserver.com/images/aolserver.png http://aolserver.com/images/aolserver.xcf I'd like to redo the original .xcf - what font face and size did you use?

Re: [AOLSERVER] Minor facelift to aolserver.com
actually, where I was going with this whole thing was trying to convey speed (meaing aolserver is fast). That's the reason I used italic text, and that's why the lines fade away from the 'L'. Oh well, I guess I didn't do a good enough job conveying that :( BTW, the xcf for the second version is at my website as well: aolserver2.xcf Here are the logos I have so far, with 2 additional based on Juan's commets'... the last 2 are png as well... http://bschwarz.com/aol_logo.html - Original Message From: Dossy Shiobara [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: AOLSERVER@LISTSERV.AOL.COM Sent: Tuesday, April 8, 2008 5:24:45 PM Subject: Re: [AOLSERVER] Minor facelift to aolserver.com On 2008.04.09, Juan José del Río (Simple Option) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: As a suggestion: save it as PNG, that way colours won't change.

Re: [AOLSERVER] Minor facelift to aolserver.com
Ah, ok...now I know what you meant about following the L...yes, that looks better. darn it...I thought by saving as xcf, Gimp would remember the colors, etc :( I believe I used Arial bold italic for the text. I think I started with the blues in the article I quoted, but ended up making them darker. The colors from the article were 6291c0 and cce6f9. Sorry about that...I should have noted everything...I don't play around with the Gimp much :( - Original Message From: Dossy Shiobara [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: AOLSERVER@LISTSERV.AOL.COM Sent: Tuesday, April 8, 2008 5:48:55 PM Subject: Re: [AOLSERVER] Minor facelift to aolserver.com OK, so I added one more horizontal line (so now there are 4 instead of 3), and added a slight single pixel step, to try and match the slant of the L. http://aolserver.com/images/aolserver.png http://aolserver.com/images/aolserver.xcf I'd like to redo the original .xcf - what font face and size did you use?
