WebGUI 5.5.0 Released

WebGUI 5.5.0 Released 11/04/2003 07:09 PM
Submission by Plain Black There are many new features in this release, but the largest is an all new discussion system. It has most of the features you'll find in any modern board such as phpBB and FUD Forum. In addition, it's fully templatable, and fully integrated with WebGUI. In addition, we've added a delete option to the Data Form, sorting options to the USS, master calendar option to the Events Calendar, and table editing to the Rich Text Editor.

Submission by Plain Black There are dozens of new features in this release, but perhaps none more exciting than WebGUI's new discussion system. Rewritten from the ground up, the new discussion system rivals the power of popular discussion systems like phpBB, Phorum, or FUD Forum. For more information about WebGUI click here.

WebGUI 6.5.4 (Default branch)

WebGUI 6.5.4 (Default branch) 03/24/2005 04:09 PM
WebGUI is a content management framework built to allow average business users to build and maintain complex Web sites. It is modular, pluggable, and platform independent. It was designed to allow the people who create the content to manage it online, rather than content management taking up the time of busy IT staff. WebGUI comes with a full discussion forum with the functionality of phpBB or FUD Forum, plus events calendaring, a photo gallery, a Web log (blog), FAQ and Link List management, and a very configurable user privilege and profiling system.

DonorWare Chooses WebGUI Over AxKit

DonorWare Chooses WebGUI Over AxKit 01/22/2004 02:11 AM
Submission by Mike Shroeder DonorWare develops fundraising software for non-profit agencies. Guiding DonorWare's software development are five principles used in selecting what frameworks, technologies, and programming languages DonorWare adopts. For an application framework that elegantly handles content management, DonorWare selected WebGUI from PlainBlack. According to Mike Schroeder, CEO of DonorWare, WebGUI was easy to install, and use. He notes that, "In fifteen minutes we had a summer intern productive with WebGUI. She was able to migrate 600 pages of content from a previous website in less than two weeks." Faith-based organizations such as the Mission Aviation Fellowship (MAF), Christian Blind Mission, and Promise Keepers turn to DonorWare for CRM-like "Constituent management" software. DonorWare's package targets charitable organizations with anywhere from fifty thousand to several million donors. Organizations can run DonorWare in-house, or access it, ASP-like, via the web, on servers in DonorWare's state-of-the art data center. Charities today need high-power enterprise solutions to handle needs as diverse as credit card processing, event registration, as well as tracking donors. According to Schroeder, "A lot of nonprofits now have catalogs and offer products, so we're dealing with ecommerce websites, direct mail, product catalogs, inventory control, state taxes, all of that." DonorWare has developed a soup-to-nuts application. Their four-tier architecture includes an underlying database, business logic, applications, and presentation engines. DonorWare's robust business logic has over three decades of history - long before the web became popular -- so the addition of a presentation layer that could interface with existing business logic, and effectively deliver content to the web was important. WebGUI will be driving future generations of DonorWare's WebWare and ContentWare packages, providing flexible, user-friendly solutions for web-based content. Personalization features coming in future versions of WebGUI will make future versions even more powerful. Expected uses of personalization include displaying regional content based on the donor's address, or reports on how a donor's previous gift was used. This type of personalization closes the loop for true one to one relationship building. DonorWare's five guiding principles on selecting technology are: Adapt to a high rate of change - change is expected, so choose technology that is extensible and open. Ubiquitous Deployment - whenever possible, choose common, everyday technology over custom technology. It is easier to maintain and support. Leverage a value chain - few companies are large enough to drive their own value chain, so choose a value chain that works to your advantage. For DonorWare, that value chain is the Open Source movement. Appropriate Pricing - choose technology that clients can afford to deploy. Preserve What Is Good - when choosing new technology, it is tempting to start from scratch, but you often "throw out the baby with the bath water". Look for ways to preserve your existing investment. These value statements ensure that DonorWare's offerings meet the needs of its customers. It also prevents DonorWare from heading down technology "dead ends", ensuring affordability, and so forth. According to Mike Schroeder, CEO/CTO of DonorWare, "Our adoption of these value statements, combined with a bit of good fortune, have allowed us to continue meeting customer needs and avoid making expensive technology mistakes." He continues, "Because we serve charities and nonprofits we decided to leverage open source as a value chain. Before we went that direction, we evaluated products like Oracle. We could have easily created a solution using Oracle, but it would have been a solution none of our clients could afford to use." Pursuing open source solutions led DonorWare to replace it's UNIFY database with MySQL. DonorWare selected MySQL based on its speed, support, user base, and rate of ongoing development. The same principles narrowed the field of CMS's and Web Application Frameworks down to two; Axkit, and WebGUI. WebGUI met DonorWare's criteria of being extensible, usable out of the box, and compatible with open standards like SOAP. Extensibility allowed DonorWare to create it's own SOAP wobject for WebGUI, allowing WebGUI to seamlessly connect to almost a million lines of existing business logic. Says Schroeder, "We could add onto WebGUI and extend it and make it fit with what we were already doing. We're very comfortable with Perl." WebGUI handles all the mundane tasks for which Application Servers are usually enlisted, things like interface templating, session management, and security. "We've noticed that close to 90% of the customization we do for clients is related to look and feel, not business logic", says Schroeder. "So WebGUI's template-based approach to interface creation allows us to re-use the same business logic for multiple clients, while allowing client's to edit their own HTML templates with a minimal knowledge of our business logic." According to Schroeder, "We look to WebGUI for two things. One is to provide CMS for clients that wanted to maintain their websites inside a CMS, the other was an ability to extend the CMS to integrate with the other processing that we do. It fits very well in our architecture" In terms of customization, PlainBlack has done a few enhancements for DonorWare. According to Schroeder, "They've been really good to deal with, in terms of getting the specs back and forth and reasonable pricing." WebGUI has proven to be an excellent solution for DonorWare, according to Schroeder, who notes "We had an incredibly good out-of-the-box experience with WebGUI. It meets our needs. Well."

WebGUI works wonders for church Web site

WebGUI works wonders for church Web site 06/22/2005 02:10 AM
In 2002, Portland, Ore.'s Sunset Presbyterian Church had a 200+-page Web site that contained mainly static content about the church, its ministries, and events. While many people were using the Web site and submitting content for it, the all-volunteer team maintaining it, of which I was a member, was overworked. Half of our time was spent editing existing pages and removing old content. Everything was done by hand: creating pages, uploading them to the site via FTP, and checking them against the site's style guidelines. All new volunteers required lots of training to become fully contributing members. Our team needed to find a way to become more efficient.

HOWTO set up a VSAT in Iraq

HOWTO set up a VSAT in Iraq 04/19/2005 03:38 AM
Xeni Jardin: Jake in Iraq wrote a detailed post about setting up VSAT internet connectivity near Sulimaniya. One of the purposes this connection will serve: getting a voting office online. Jake's a pretty serious geek. He says he's been asked not to share exactly why he's there, or what exactly he's doing for whom, but this is sure an interesting post.

This is how I spent my day today. It took around 6 hours round trip to drive to Sulimaniya, Iraq. This in Kurdistan where we did the install. I learned some stuff, it's mostly simple labor but it raised some interesting questions in my mind about interception.

As far as I can tell, it's entirely possible to intercept any data being sent to earth in an entirely passive way. I'm going to look into this more before I make any outlandish claims, if you know, feel free to let me know.

(...) This [photo] is the lead engineer checking to find the 251 degree azimuth. The tool he's holding is totally awesome and old school. I think you could sail around the world with it if you were determined.

And above, an identifying label on the back of the finished product. Link< /a> (Thanks, Mark!)

HOWTO bl0g anonymously

HOWTO bl0g anonymously 04/08/2005 12:54 AM
Cory Doctorow: EFF has released a guide to blogging anonymously, with "basic measures people can take to keep their blogs anonymous and explores what the law says about discussing work-related issues online. Some advice is common sense; for example, don't post a picture of yourself if you want to stay anonymous. But for bloggers who want strong guarantees of privacy, EFF suggests using technologies like Tor or Anonymizer to prevent your blog-hosting company from logging your computer's unique Internet Protocol (IP) address. Bloggers who fear they could be fired for blogging are also given an introduction to laws that prevent an employer from punishing them for speaking out online."

The bad news is that in many cases, there is no legal means of redress if you've been fired for blogging. While your right to free speech is protected by the First Amendment, this protection does not shield you from the consequences of what you say. The First Amendment protects speech from being censored by the government; it does not regulate what private parties (such as most employers) do. In states with "at will" employment laws like California, employers can fire you at any time, for any reason. And no state has laws that specifically protect bloggers from discrimination, on the job or otherwise.

One way to make sure your blog doesn't earn you a pink slip is to make sure that you write about certain protected topics. Most states have laws designed to prevent employers from firing people who talk openly about their politics outside of work, for example. Be warned that laws like this do vary widely from state to state, and many are untested when it comes to blogging.

HOWTO stop procrastinating

HOWTO stop procrastinating 09/09/2004 08:59 AM
Cory Doctorow: On Merlin Mann's 43 Folders productivity blog, he runs through a great high-level overview of the geek-cult-smash, "Getting Things Done," a comprehensive and nerdy guide to systematizing yourself out of procrastination.

Stuff is bouncing around in our heads and causing untold stress and anxiety. Evaluation meetings, bar mitzvahs, empty rolls of toilet paper, broken lawn mowers, college applications, your big gut, tooth decay, dirty underwear and imminent jury duty all compete for prime attention in our poor, addled brains. Stuff has no “home” and, consequently, no place to go, so it just keeps rattling around.

Worst off, we’re too neurotic to stop thinking about it, and we certainly don’t have time to actually do everything in one day. Jeez Louise, what the hell am I, Superman?

So you sprint from fire to fire, praying you haven’t forgotten anything, sapped of anything like creativity or even the basic human flexibility to adapt your own schedule to the needs of your friends, your family or yourself. Your “stuff” has taken over your brain like a virus now, dragging down every process it touches and rendering you spent and virtually useless. Sound familiar?

Update: Jesse Andrews, the fellow who wrote this de-Xeni script, would appear to be busted. :-) Chad Hurley, who identifies himself as Mr. Andrews' employer, says:

Hi Xeni,

Just a note about Mr. Andrews and his "de-Xeni" plugin - We’ve caught him looking at far worse things than your "over the top" posts. Why he has picked you to filter, one may never know, but I have an idea for a plugin. Maybe I will add it to the Grease Monkey requests. It’s really simple. When Jesse opens Firefox, it directs Jesse to a folder on my server called, "Things Jesse needs to do today before the big hand is on 12 and the little hand is on 5"! Just an idea.

Keep on keepin' on,

Chad

Professional PHP4 XML

Professional PHP4 XML 08/05/2002 10:44 PM
Between Wrox Professional PHP4 XML and New Riders XML and PHP book, it is hard to recommend one or the other because both are very well written and cover pretty much the same topic that matter to anybody developing XML applications with PHP. If you can afford them, it would probably be a good idea to purchase both as there may be details that may be slightly clearer in one book than in the other.

Slashdot reviews the bookProfessional PHP4."It provides a solid, fast-paced drill on the rudimentaries of PHP (although the fast-paced installation instructions come in the form of classic compendia -- worth 100 pages) for seasoned programmers, before it plunges head straight into the more advanced areas of the language. Each chapter reads a bit like a tutorial on a particular area of advanced PHP development."

Professional PHP4 XML review 09/24/2002 12:21 PM
Looking across the XML bookshelf today, it's easy to see many books discussing XML in a generic manner, or more commonly how to utilize XML within Java, .NET and Perl. Moreover, despite the broad based support that PHP has for XML, there has been no book that tackled the complexities and best practices, and at the same time offered a comprehensive resource to the XML-based APIs -- at least not until now.
