1. Has Jeremy finally left the buiding?

Hi
Jeremy Cowgar.
I see that openeuphoria has moved to a new host.
Also I see that the svn repositories that were available on the cowgar server / domain are no longer present (for instance http://cowgar.com/svn/euwiki/trunk/bin/, http://cowgar.com/svn/euiup3/ (they were there last week)
Does this mean that Jeremy has finally definitively left the eu community? (which would be a great shame). Also, do the svn repositories still exist anywhere? I see the eubins directory http://jeremy.cowgar.com/eubins/ still exists, but for how much longer? ALthough I also see that a new location for the windows eubins has been created on the new serever, what about Linux up to date eubins.
Sad and concerned
Chris

He's still a little active in IRC and on the dev list... I'm guessing real life has interfered, just like it does for a lot of us.
He won't ever be gone because I won't let him leave. :D

They work for me. E.g. http://jeremy.cowgar.com/svn/euwiki/trunk/
ALthough I also see that a new location for the windows eubins has been created on the new serever, what about Linux up to date eubins.
These will be available soon as http://openeuphoria.org/eubins/linux/

That is a question best answered by Jeremy himself.

Hi
Jeremy Cowgar.
I see that openeuphoria has moved to a new host.
This was always the plan. The move to my server was meant to be temporary. It turned into much more than temporary, but that's the way it goes sometimes. OpenEuphoria.org has finally been assigned to a new server that some members have contributed funds for. The old host was just not up to the challenge.
Also I see that the svn repositories that were available on the cowgar server / domain are no longer present (for instance http://cowgar.com/svn/euwiki/trunk/bin/, http://cowgar.com/svn/euiup3/ (they were there last week)
That URL is wrong. It should be using the host jeremy.cowgar.com, not cowgar.com. It worked previously due to the root domain name, cowgar.com, being misconfigured. That mis-configuration has been fixed, causing your issue. I did not realize anyone was using cowgar.com/svn/... sorry about that. I actually didn't know it worked until I read this message and then it all made sense. Soon the cowgar.com website (just cowgar.com and www.cowgar.com) will be maintained by my sister with all sorts of Cowgar family genealogy. jeremy.cowgar.com will always be my site and the svn server there does and will remain.

No! I'm still here, just not as active as I'd like at the moment. I'm not going anywhere. Euphoria is a fantastic language.
Sad and concerned
Sorry for the concern, but makes me feel good that I'd be missed!

I notice that on at least one of my computers here, the forum no longer shows the star that indicates new, unread posts in a thread; is that an artifact of the change to another server, or is it maybe some problem I have here?
I also noticed recently and just a second ago, that if I click "preview", I sometimes get an error message (which isn't happening RIGHT now, after it did a moment ago), something about not being able to make connection, I think. Might that also be some kind of artifact or consequence of the change?
Error is:
The website cannot display the page HTTP 500 Most likely causes: •The website is under maintenance. •The website has a programming error.
What you can try: Refresh the page.
Go back to the previous page.
More information

I messed that up this morning, I believe. The css for that stuff is kind of tricky, and while what I put seems OK, not all browsers like it that way. Also, the way we display the star is something that most browsers seem to be phasing out due to security concerns. Google Chrome, at least, already has.

These are now available.
eubins-linux-bin.tar.gz is similiar to the old format - just the 4 binaries (eui, euc, eub, and eu.a) - and a much smaller download.
eubins-linux.tar.gz is similiar to the mingw32 and the old watcom-windows builds - they include everything that you get from doing an svn checkout.

I'm using IE8 on this 'puter.
But while I'm at it, I've wondered if the forum couldn't have a new feature whereby clicking on a message thread would auto-jump to the post just after the last post previously read by the reader.

I've been getting that pretty frequently as well- the site will be almost completely reachable for several minutes at a time, then will work fine again afterwards.
We didn't move back to shared hosting again, did we? Eu CGI does not seem to function well in such a configuration.

I frequently get the forum without the css styling. Both with Firefox and Chrome.
The css and html validate, so.. I'm guessing a server configuration problem?

I suspect this could be related to the error 500 as well- if it happens on the CSS file, that wont load, and it will have the effect that the page will appear un-styled.
(However, I dont see the stars whether the CSS loads or not)

This would require a sort of statistical data collection that I believe is not currently happening at openeuphoria.org. Let me explain. Your browser knows where you have been and likely when as well. However, openeuphoria.org likely does not timestamp the last time every visitor visits a page. Or in your a simply case related your question. Just storing the last thing you viewed. I doubt much of any statistical data is stored. So, you want openeuphoria to be a little more like Big Brother and record every time you visit any page so they can sell that information to line their pockets. Oh wait. They wouldn't do that. It would go to better Euphoria. eh, I'll calmly step away from the mic and off the podium now.

Hi
Thanks for that, bookmarks updated. Glad to see you're still around though!
If some members of the community have contributed to the funding of the new host, why do the rest of the community not know who they are, and why is there no paypal donate button? (yes, I would press it!)
