Hi everybody.
I manage to persuade the proxy into letting me back online (for some reason it refused to do this simple job for the last week or so.. )
So I have to take advantage of the situation while it lasts and give you some updates. I’m almost done with my first month at the DEMA (Danish Emergency Management Agency) which means that I’m qualified to ride in the fire engines and assist at the scenes.. W00tage… We did a drill today to see if you can go from sleeping to fully dressed, in the fire engine and on your way out within five minutes. The entire team was out before four minutes had passed so I guess we did fine.
And in totally unrelated news - LinuxForum 2007 is only 2 days away (1 day away for those with Business-tickets). Of course I will be there again this year. I’ll update thise post when I know what I’ll wear - just in case you are going too and are dying to meet me (I’m such a celeb you know..)
And this year I actually know someone besides me who are going too (bitkid didn’t count last year since he was going with me). I know the CEOs of two of the companies with displays, one from the coord team and then maybe 5-10 others who are just regular attendees.
Update: Okay, so I forgot to update the post on what I was going to wear because I was freaking tired after only four hours of sleep. Wii’s are a sure way to miss sleep - that’s a fact.

I have had my beloved iBook with me at the DEMA and I have been coding some from down here. I have a small client-job which involves both Javascript and PHP which is going quite well. I’m quite proud of my JS as it was pretty much the first time I did prototype-based OOP (and not the Prototype.js type).
I also finished up on the mailing system of Uniteit - both new comment and new question notification. I works by forking out a background php-process that recives the comment or question-id as $argv[1]. This way we don’t need complicated and error-prone Java daemons - at least not at the beginning when the amount of email is as low as it is now.
The area of Uniteit that’s receiving some much needed attention is subscribing to tags so people will actually receive mails. I need to come up with a good idea for a interface so the user can choose which tags he wants to monitor. Again, more use for my APi. Yummi.
If you want to help my out with testing of the email system - or help me decide what the emails should contain, please contact me. Its getting quite boring to email yourself

Heyya, its your favorite wrench-wielding web-monkey… fangel
No, I haven’t passed away. No, I haven’t melted away and become a spaceship. No, I haven’t turned to the dark side and started coding ASP from a Vista computer.
Yes, I have been away. Yes, it was a great time. Yes, I will be going away again.
I’m sorry for [...]

I’ve been hard at work trying to code the new version of UniteIT - and of course I’m using Pundit. And can I just say - its a charm working with it. I have found some bugs and added a few features since the Introducing-post. The most prominent changed I’ve done is actually making PunditModel::save() [...]

New design
First of all, I have redesigned this site to this clean look. Clean being keyword here, I removed pretty much everything. That includes Live-Comments - but they will be back whenever I get the time… I used the motto “If you dont got it, dont show it” and then removed everything - nice, huh? [...]

UniteIT as we know it looks and feels ohh so clean, but in reality the code is rather weird. Most of this comes down to the fact that:
We didn’t really think it all through
We didn’t coordinate properly
We didn’t use any template-system, but instead a weird way (that I came up with)
As a result of this [...]

Hi,
This Monday (the 8th of August) UniteIT was brought back online after extensive upgrades during the weekend. We uploaded all the fixes and feature-adds which we also worked on during the weekend. With those two operations done so were UniteIT.
Well - done isn’t the correct work. We are satisfied with the way it works now, [...]
