Question about the list and follow up to advice questions
I moved all the way back to KC to attend KCLUG meetings, and I've already missed two. I could set up some sort of reminder myself, but it might be more useful to have an automated mailer send messages out to the group at large or a second mailing list. Can the list admin set up a second list, perhaps kclug-announce, with announcements about forthcoming meetings 24 hours prior, and announcements about special events as needed? PS: If anyone's wondering, I'm good and settled now, up in NKC. At my apartment complex, the only ISP options were SBC and Roadrunner. As the reason Speakeasy was unable to provide service was that my area was on an SBC DSL repeater to which they didn't have access. Not having any interest in being on an overloaded repeater, I went the TW route.

I have found TimeWarner RoadRunner to be quite good myself. Do note however, that they block of port 631 -- Fedora Core 6 and proud

So what is port 631 used for other than below? ipp 631/udp # IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) ipp 631/tcp # IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) I haven't seen/heard many people printing from the internet.

Sorry. Was referring to the point samba/windows uses for file sharing. -- Fedora Core 6 and proud

You've spoken of Speakeasy almost obsessively, which I never understood. If you were going to go with AT&T (formerly SBC) DSL, which many of us have told you is not as good a choice in this area, why wouldn't you deal directly with the company providing it? In any case, for whatever reason, you made the best choice, and I hope you enjoy the excellent service Road Runner provides - and that you never have to deal with their abysmal customer service, which rivals AT&T's.

http://kclug.org/KCLUG.ics might be a good starting point for that. A more primitive approach would do something like this: case `date +%d` in [1-7]) [ `date +%w` = 3 ] || exit;; 1[5-9]|2[01]) [ `date +%w` = 2 ] || exit;; esac #Your Reminder Here
This ics file doesn't have the Tuesday meetings on it. Doh! Monty J. Harder wrote:

It did the last time I looked at it, when I was complaining about it being in Z instead of unspecified local time, imputed to be C(S/D)T. Can someone with admin privs fix it? On 1/27/07, Jim Herrmann <kclug@itdepends.com> wrote:

When I click on the link for the ICS file, it opens in Konqueror, using the calendar, and sees the Wednesday meeting and the meeting after the meeting, but not the stuff on Tuesday. When I edit the ICS file I can see the events, but KDE's calendar doesn't see it. Not sure if the ICS is malformed, or if it's just Edgy's Calendar has a bug. I added it to Google calendar and it does the same thing: http://www.google.com/calendar/embed?src=b6mgv796t68k493ivoc306ge5eq2lqlp%40... So, that would indicate that there is a problem with the ICS.

The latest Thunderbird Lightning plugin does not care much for that file. The ics output from Lightning also looks noticeably different. ~Bradley Christopher A. Bier wrote:

Actually, it doesn't. Read section 4.8.4.7 The UID *must* be globally unique. On your ICS, the meetings share the same UID, and the post-meetings share the same UID.

Seeing that KDE/Konqueror has a record of being more standards compliant that Mozilla/FireFox, it wouldn't surprise me that KDE/KOrganizer was more compliant than Mozilla/Sunbird ;)

Fixed. Google still doesn't seem to like it. I created a google calendar with the same event details, exported it as iCalendar, and it output pretty much the same calendar file. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFFvnbVE5xXU3JS1mQRAmBlAKCKlNJ7mivt6w6oHOrmbeZhVMb3KACfYVSl rRwANyClwosP4yQXH4T0T3I= =apWG -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

It works for me, even in Google... maybe it cached the old copy for a while?
Could be. I deleted the calendar entry and created a new one. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFFvniYE5xXU3JS1mQRAut5AJsHcQNsABCxgtsEDD4cjzuf/90kPwCdHex2 TP2qlt0LHgNGElwBdH+zifc= =rQRI -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
