Re: CVS Hosting

JClark wonders about hosted CVS (ala Sourceforge). In the comments a representative of SourceHosting.Net suggests his service. It does look like a nice solution, but I'm wondering if $75/month is a little steep? I'm sure there are bandwidth issues to consider; anyone have any guesses as to the bandwidth used by your "average" SourceForge project? Not counting the SF.net website, of course.

Re: The recalcitrant engineer

I just found the recalcitrant engineer in my referer log - thanks for the link; I don't make many blogrolls outside of the Roller crowd. And I love the name and definition, as I hadn't realized I'm a bit recalcitrant myself.

Re: OPL

I know what OPML is, but what is OPL? OPM is Other Peoples Money, and OPT is Other Peoples Time. So is OPL Other Peoples Laundry? Would seem to fit with the title OPL Over the Air: airing other people's laundry. No?

OSCache 2.0 (beta 1)

Via David Czarnecki, a new version of OSCache is released. I think the current version of OSCache is responsible for some of the problems on FreeRoller (esp. Rickard's "my page is blank" problem). When I get a chance I'll work on getting OSCache 2 (beta) into Roller (looks like some code changes will be necessary).

Re: LGPL and the FSF

Kevin, thanks for posting that excerpt from the Slashdot thread. I was going to do it, but lethargy stole over me, after a day of considering and discussing the LGPL. I'm relieved to see that the LGPL makes it possible for Roller to continue with an Apache-style license (though I'm curious what the requirement Make available the source code for the LGPL library entails).

As Dave says

I would add: If you find any annoyances, please log them in our bug database (but please check first to avoid duplicates). And if you have the solution, please send us a patch!
