I like money better than people. People can so rarely be exchanged for goods and/or services!

Thanks for all the fish.

Yes, Megan would like to set up a Haligonista mailing list thing. Quest. Journey.

If I only had a brain...

There's an ugly in CVS.

Thanks, Betsy. I'm updating my copy of cvs (both server and client) as we speak.

Karl, I'm going to roll in Jon's admin changes, and then I think we can get going for real -- how's this weekend for you?

Woo hoo! Have we worked out how the testing php/web server will be set up?

Testing will have to go the same way it is now -- we need to work out a protocol for locking individual files down.

Also, for the admin page, I think I'm going to change the e-mail list to an e-mail search, since I think the usage is mostly going to be cut and paste from another source. I never actually read the e-mail addies, and doing so would slow me down.

Other admin opinions? We're talking about making the Maintain Users screen both less ugly and more useful.

ita, this is the weekend of Further Confusion, a sci-fi/anthropomorphic con in San Jose, which various members of my household are deeply enmeshed in staffing. I may or may not go to the con, but they have an Internet Room there, and I can do needed CVS set-up remotely, if necessary.

So the short version is: Send me a list of people (with e-mail addresses) who need CVS access, and I'll see that they're live by Monday night, by hook or by crook.

Did you know that, when you select a listbox, you can type in what you're looking for and it will pop down to the correct entry. You can just type in the first letter, or the first couple of letters, and it will jump to the first entry that starts with the same letter(s). Since the lists are in alphabetical order, it's the same as a search box but (IMO) more flexible.

Quisp:

Thinking about it a little more, I really prefer the multiline listbox to a search box. If a situation arises where you can't cut and paste, and/or you get a letter wrong, it's a pain in the neck to find the user you want. I'd much rather have immediate access to a whole list of emails, that I can still search by quickly typing in the first few letters.
