[OpenGuides-Dev] Proposed BOF at lpw 2004
by IvorW 01 Dec '04

01 Dec '04

I'd like to organise an OpenGuides BOF at the London Perl Workshop if there is sufficient interest. A BOF is a Birds-of-a-feather gathering, usually a special interest caucus at a larger conference. It does not need to appear in the official timetable for the main event. -----Original Message----- From: london.pm-admin(a)london.pm.org [mailto:london.pm-admin@london.pm.org]On Behalf Of lpw Sent: 29 October 2004 15:58 To: london.pm-announce(a)london.pm.org Subject: [ANNOUNCE] London Perl Workshop: Registration now open =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= London Perl Workshop, 2004 - Registration open =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Imperial College Union, London, UK Saturday 11th December 2004 Registration for the London Perl Workshop is now open. You can sign up here http://london.pm.org/lpw/signup.html and a provisional list of speakers is here http://london.pm.org/lpw/talks.html As we hoped the workshop will be entirely free thanks to some generous sponsors and we may also try and fit in an open, lightning talks style informal track depending on circumstances.

[OpenGuides-Dev] RDF for Locales and Categories
by Chris Prather 30 Nov '04

30 Nov '04

So I've been pondering this for a few days, and I don't (yet) have a good solution. But I have an itch growing, and I need to dump it here before I totally forget it. Currently the RDF view of a page doesn't give the current Categories or Locales. I'd like to include these as some kind of a link to the Category or Locale page ... I'm thinking something like an rdf:seeAlso, but that really isn't descriptive enough. This is where I got stuck working on this idea, I couldn't find a decent RDF vocabulary to give this idea. The closest is spacenamespace's space:contains ... but that's the inverse of what I want. Having said that, isn't there a way to invert the process and get all the nodes in a Category or Locale via the RDF? I know zool asked about something like that at one point, and it could possibly have made it into the book. The ultimate purpose of all of this is I'd like to create a little bot to do OpenGuides searches. Something like mudlondon, though not nearly as featureful. I just want something that will perform locative searches for me when I need a resturant to eat lunch at. -Chris

[OpenGuides-Dev] Lat/Long changes in releases?
by Rev Simon Rumble 30 Nov '04

30 Nov '04

Don't want to hassle but the Lat/Long stuff is very exciting. Any idea when we'll Kake's wonderfulness in the release? (specifically, the Debian packages for me) Is there anything outstanding that needs doing that a mere mortal could do?

[OpenGuides-Dev] yet another similar project
by James Green 29 Nov '04

29 Nov '04

Hi, People interested in projects similar to OpenGuides might be interested to see http://wiki.ournottingham.net/, whose creator apparently felt that http://nottingham.openguides.org/ didn't quite fulfill Nottingham's collaborative-city-guide needs[1]. It uses MediaWiki, which is cool in some ways (discussion tabs!) but lacks features I for one consider important in OpenGuides (structured metadata, x-y coordinates) and apparently the content it released under the GFDL, though this information is hard to find without a spot of digging. While we're on the subject, does anyone know if the GFDL and CC by-sa 2.0 licence are "compatible" in either direction? That is to say, can content from either of these guides be easily included in the other? My rough understanding of the licences suggests not, but IANAL. Cheers, James [1] Grumble. This "providing content" lark sure is hard. -- jkg((-.+)?@(|the\.)earth.li|@(jimbo|wonky)\.org\.uk|03u@cs\.nott\.ac\.uk) Reader, suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress.

[OpenGuides-Dev] Why OpenGuides?
by Kake L Pugh 26 Nov '04

26 Nov '04

I often have trouble explaining to people why the Open Guide to London is better than other London guide sites. So I set up this page so you can all help me come up with articulate reasons. Please braindump. http://openguides.org/dev/?node=Why+OpenGuides Kake

[OpenGuides-Dev] OpenGuides goes global
by Kake L Pugh 24 Nov '04

24 Nov '04

22:59 <Kake> OI!!!! 22:59 <Kake> Everyone! 22:59 <Kake> I did it! 23:00 <Kake> OpenGuides location stuff now works worldwide. 23:00 <Kake> http://the.earth.li/~kake/cgi-bin/openguides/vegan-oxford.cgi is running entirely on UTM. CGI::Wiki::Plugin::Locator::UK isn't even installed on the machine any more. 23:00 <Kake> ...and you've all gone to bed so I have to be excited on my own. Backwards compatibility is safe. The kakemirror on london.openguides.org is running on exactly the same code and on the live London data. By the way, what happened to the Northern Ireland OpenGuide? Kake

[OpenGuides-Dev] Grand Unified Hackfest
by Earle Martin 22 Nov '04

22 Nov '04

For some time there have been mumblings and/or rumblings of the possibility of lots of people hacking together (hmm, lopht) on CGI::Wiki and OpenGuides in the same place. I offered to host, and it's got to the point where I can make good on that. When's good for you? E. -- Earle Martin http://downlode.org/ http://purl.oclc.org/net/earlemartin/
