GetSemantic Wiki
What GetSemantic Will Do:
Point web designers, developers and users towards data standards that they can use today.
Develop new data standards that they can use tomorrow (with Darwinism as our garbage collector).
Provide really good semantic web documentation that is accessible to people who aren’t semantic web experts.
Encourage discussion around building new formats …
The WP dev team has decided to hold back version 2.2 for at least a week or two from the original date of April 23.
How To: Point your domain (example.com) or point your subdomain (directory.example.com) to the OPML community server per the “How to” link, wait for the DNS to propagate. Check.
In the OPML Editor, open your Directory outline opml file by selecting Community > Instant Outliner > Open My Outline. Select Community > Map A Domain. You should see your Outline URL is filled in (note: you can supply any valid url path to an outline). Enter your domain name that you pointed to the OPML server, as above. Select the OK button. Check.
This fails with:
“The server returned error code 4: Can’t map an outline to the domain because the domain doesn’t point to the server.”
But the domain does point to the server. Running trace route resolves to the correct opml server IP, and when I access my sub-domain url that is pointing to that opml server in a browser, it returns:
‘Sorry! There was an error: The attribute “allowDirectoryListings” must be true.’ ??
Testbed: OPML Editor on Win98. I have tried this at different times over the past few weeks with the same result. Does anyone have this feature working with the OPML Editor in a Windows env? I do see some working directories out there, but I cannot get this to fly.
I see an another opml blog, Per Diem is getting the same error when attempting to Map a Domain recently.
Wordpress V2.1.3 was released.
And, off the 2.0 branch Wordpress V2.0.10 was released.
And, as usual Mark on Wordpress has his Changes.zip and Diff files available. Thanks Mark.
I posted earlier today about Tom’s progress on OPML Editor blog rendering via PHP. Then I remembered issues I had running Dan’s Optimal Renderer. Then I re-read “it’s based on PHP5’s DOM and XSLT support” from Tom’s Progress on Blog 2.0 post. Dan has a PHP test script to determine support on your server. Waaaaahhhhh!. Although my web host provider has a selectable option for PHP4 or PHP5, my sad server returns “You DO NOT have XSLT support”. Beyond disappointed. I am writing to my Congressman, better yet, I am writing to my web host.
Update: My web host replied, “At the moment, we do not offer the XSL extension. It has been added to our list of client requested features and may be included in a future service upgrade.” Sigh.
Amy has been “logging” on the internet in many formats over the years.
I started with BBSs over a 300 baud modem. I was on Usenet and Gopher. I remember sitting with a friend and having the OMG moment when Mosaic first came out. We could not believe it. Coming from the “Unix” community, many of us had our homepage on Apache/public intranet for links and “Tumblr” like updates, and/or used .plan to let co-workers know where we were, or what we were up to. I did not get on the WWW with a site until 1998
A decade of Scripting News. On this day, ten years ago, a weblog named Scripting News appeared for the first time … today (April 1st) its in “retro mode”
I have been reading Scripting News and strolling through DaveNet since 2004. Thanks Dave! Even though you have intimated otherwise, I look forward to the next 10 year celebration. And a personal thanks for the OPML Editor, Uncle Skippy, from a happy member of the peanut gallery.
Best Wishes,
Peggy
Since Scripting News is in “retro mode” today, Dave is blogging on twitter for the day.
Hey Tom (Mr. OPML Editor hacky-god), this is very cool, you even covered stuff on my wish-list. Well, I think I luv-ya, virtually. I see you have the Next/Prev, Month, Calendar working for the OPML blog. And even ” on this day in”. Can’t wait for the PHP source … waiting, tapping fingers, waiting, waiting … um, no rush … but hurry up ;)
Update: Not waiting, No XSLT support on my web host. Sigh.
