Re: Recommendations for CMS

23 Jun '05

Here is a gigantic list of cms software to consider, http://www.cmsmatrix.org/ Nearly as useful: http://www.cmsinfo.org/ Having installed about a dozen different CMS over the years, I can only say: Don't take recommendations from others--the range of options and quality is so diverse that no single person can recommend to you what you need. Instead, I gotta say, if you're into content management delivery, you will fall in love with this website, because it allows you to demo dozens of CMS (click on 'portals' in the menu on the left): http://www.opensourcecms.com/ Have fun. -Jared

Brother Jonathan reaches 0.9.0
by Jared 22 Jun '05

22 Jun '05

Fellow luggites, I have been working on an open source project for 18 months; I wanted to have a solid core in place before asking others for help. It is finally ready to invite other PHP developers to join in. The project is written in PHP, and it manages manufacturing Assemblies, Quotes, Invoices, Purchases, and so forth. Target audience is a small manufacturing business. http://www.brotherjonathan.org/ I am writing to invite you or someone you know to help work on this project. Here are some vital statistics: o Written in PHP o uses Smarty templates o uses the ADODB database abstraction layer o Themeable; there is only one theme so far o developed with a MySQL backend, but any major DB engine will work. o one module is already object-oriented; the others are classic procedural Although large in its own right, it is a very small competitor for the vast Compiere project which has been on Sourceforge's top 10 list for over a year now. About 500 proprietary products compete with it, also. It needs work in the accounting module, with testing, with documentation, and with the 200 bugfixes and tweaks that measure the distance between a 0.9 and 1.0. An intrepid volunteer who is willing to extract Assemblies from its location within Quotes might be useful, also. Also, does anyone have a PHP5 server that can be used to host a demo? Sourceforge is still at 4.3, and it won't run there. http://freshmeat.net/projects/brotherjonathan/ http://sourceforge.net/projects/brotherjonathan/ http://www.kcpug.org/site/modules/news/ Thanks, -Jared Smith

IT training companies
by JARiley＠dstsystems.com 22 Jun '05

22 Jun '05

I have a buddy who wants to get into IT from a Geography Major/City Planner background. He checked out Foss Training Center yesterday and asked if I knew about their reputation as a trainer. I don't, so I was hoping some of you do. Can you give me some feedback? He is looking at an eight month program to get certified in Java and Web Design/Development. Would he be better off at another training company or even going back to school and getting some type of IT associate's or bachelor's degree (in regards to what local managers are looking for)?

Recommendations for CMS
by Jack 22 Jun '05

22 Jun '05

I'm thinking of adding a CMS to my server. Anyone use any and which would you recommend. Or should not use a CMS? Pros? Cons? I'd like a CMS that would allow my to hand tweak, or one that doesn't do wierd stuff with the files. I'd like something that uses php. Also, looking for a simple easy to use calendering system. I could roll all this myself, but why re-invent if there is something useful. Thanks, Brian D. __________________________________ Yahoo! Mail Stay connected, organized, and protected.

Smart multiline grep?
by Gerald Combs 21 Jun '05

21 Jun '05

Is there a grep-like utility that will return a variable number of context lines? I need to search through source code for occurrences of a particular function and get back the function plus its arguments, even if they're split across multiple lines. E.g. if I search for "proto_tree_add_text" I want back proto_tree_add_text(subtree, tvb, curr_offset, 1, "%s : Reserved", bigbuf); and proto_tree_add_text(tree, tvb, offset, payload_len, "Payload"); equally. I _don't_ want the extra one-size-fits-all fluff returned by GNU grep's "-A" flag.

Recursive symbolic linking question
by Rob Becker 21 Jun '05

21 Jun '05

I have a bunch of oggs in a partition called autotunes that are organized into directories by artist and then subdirectories by album. I am using ogg123 to play the files. As best I can tell, ogg123 does not have the ability to recursively select files from a nested directory structure. I need to have a symbolic link for each ogg appear in the /autotunes directory. I can get a list of all the oggs by just using locate *.ogg. I can dump that to a file with a redirection, but how can I use that file to create the symbolic links automatically? I assume that I'm needing to write a script to accomplish this task. I'm not at all familiar with perl, so I would prefer to use bash if possible. Does anyone have any pointers? I am somewhat familiar with bash scripting, but I'm a bit rusty so I could use a bit of a quick refresher if anyone has any links or advice to offer. Please don't suggest that I switch media players or anything of that sort. This is a music player for my car that has limited disk space that I want to conserve for the storage of the music. Thanks very much for any help you can offer. Have a great day. Rob
