Re: [svg-developers] planetsvg.com down

Hi Doug,

That should help a lot. I don't have much of an opinion on the issue of where 
its final resting place should be, but it is useful information and good to 
have a stable link.

muchas gracias,
David

  I created that page, so I actually had a local copy to use. I've 
  reinstated it here (which I believe was the original location):
  http://planetsvg.com/tools/mime.php

  It's not pretty (I still need to style it), but it's functional. You 
  can test it using this URL I've set up to have the incorrect MIME Type 
  ("image/svg-xml", note the "-" rather than "+"):
  http://planetsvg.com/tools/tests/wrong-mime/test.svg

  I don't plan on changing the server anymore, and if I do, I will try to 
  make sure that that page stays at a stable location. Sorry for the 
  disruption in service.

  It occurs to me that I could try to host that on the W3C site, as a 
  complement to the validator services. That would be an even more stable 
  location. Would you like me to check into that?

Hi Doug,

There used to be a link on svg.org that talked about server configuration 
issues (mime types and the like). The SVG Primer pointed to it. Then it went 
away, so we found a place on Planet Svg that seemed to have even better 
information and redirected the pointer to that. But now, sigh, that is down too.

Does anyone know of another good place to refer students to info on server 
configuration until Planet SVG is back up?

thanks
D

  I own the domain, but it was hosted on Rob Russell's server. He's had 
  some problems with it (I don't know the nature), and he's said he'll get 
  the original content to me. I expect that I'll probably go back to 
  hosting it in a rather stripped-down, easily-maintained form.

  What specific features should I retain? What are you using 
  planetsvg.com for, and what's important to you? Any help in maintaining 
  and improving it for the future would be very welcome.

  Thanks-

Re: [svg-developers] planetsvg.com down

Hi Doug,

There's one main feature of Planet SVG which I think would be useful,
which is to aggregate relevant SVG blogs. Like Planet Eclipse[0],
Planet Ubuntu[1], etc.

If you need hosting and/or support administering it, I'd be happy to
help with that. I have server resources which are underutilized, and I
don't think it would be too difficult to set up a basic news
aggregator.

Let me know what you think (off-list if you think that would be better),

Jake
