Scripting News: “As promised, here’s the first draft of the RSS 0.94 spec. It’s a consolidation of all the specs I’ve written over the last two years. A few new features, listed on the (new) change notes page. Please read the roadmap to see what comes after 0.94. I’m not looking for much feedback until next week, but of course if you like it, no need to wait to say that. ;->” — Why 0.94? Why not just go w/ RSS 1.0?

C|Net: Out with AOL, in with Jabber – “When America Online closed its door on efforts to standardize instant messaging, a new one may have opened for Jabber.” — Go Jabber!

Earth And Beyond Portal – Net-7 Up and Running: “It would appear Earth and Beyond’s resident Net-7 Reporter, Arcturus, has been busy. The Net-7 Section of the Official Earth and Beyond Website has been updated with some new headlines.” — Cool!

Earth And Beyond Portal – Site Stats: “Just thought I’d note that we’ve hit our 2,500th registered user, and our 1 millionth page view. Kinda cool. Someone over in the UK buy AE a beer for me.” — Congrats! :)

Planned Downtime

Just got this from my hoster, FYI.

[Quote] “Hello DreamHost Customers!

Due to the financial instability of one of our upstream providers (among other concerns), we are now in the position of physically moving some of our servers to a new location. This will ensure that we are better able to provide our customers with the quality of service they’ve come to associate with the DreamHost name.

The move will be taking place on Saturday, Sept 14, between 10:00 PM and 3:00 AM PDT (approximately).

You’re receiving this announcement because at least one of your domains / users is on a machine that will be affected by this move. We are doing everything we possibly can to minimize the downtime that you will experience.

This move will affect all services for your domain, including http (web), ftp, jabber, mail (incoming and outgoing), and any databases.

Several months ago, we switched your services over to our new IPs. This means that IP addresses and DNS will remain unchanged for everyone during the migration.

Happy DreamHost Datacenter Migration Team!” [Quote]

I should write the GLUE install scripts, but I can’t force myself to work on ‘em. Not right now.
