Reply-To: geeklog-devel at lists.geeklog.net
I don't understand a word, but this Japanese article seems to walk the
reader through the installation and initial setup of a Geeklog site. Lots
of screenshots for us westeners to look at :-)

It looks quite nice, actually. We should have something like that in English.
bye, Dirk

Subject: [geeklog-devel] Bug and it's fix.
Reply-To: geeklog-devel at lists.geeklog.net
Downloaded the latest version the other day, came accross this bug.
On or near line 273 of layout/professional/admin/story/storyeditor.thtml
var jstest = {showarchivedisabled}
Now, if for whatever reason {showarchivedisabled} is not there, does
not get placed, falls into another dimension, whatever, there will be
a JS error every time you edit a story. I am not sure why this
started happening really, have not edited the code much at all. But it
happened, and I found it annoying.
Solution for fix, change the line to:
var jstest = "{showarchivedisabled}";
Now when {showarchivedisabled} does not show up, the source ends up with:
var jstest="";
Thoughts?

Too bad there is no prior art law with trademarks, this guy registered
it January 24th, 2005.

On a more serious note, I would explain that we are an open source group
with no formal business organization and that our tool is not directly
related to nor competes with their product. I would point out Justin's
email about prior work (though he's right...it holds no water) and then
I would finish it up by noting that we would be willing to change the
name but that we won't have nice things to say about him nor his company
because of this (free speech is great).
And, no, I'm not above name calling.

Won't help. The USPTO entry claims first use in commerce as of 2003-10-
03. The SpamX plugin was released 2004-06-14.

Did not read that, but, just fyi, there are no prior art rules for
trademarks like there are for other things, once registered, prior art
is screwed. In this case it would not matter if he had just thought
it up, registered, and began using it yesterday, since he registered
it first.

What about http://www.spamx.com looks like another spamx that is nearly
identical to the hendrickson release. Written in Java Registered on
12-24-00.
Also http://freshmeat.net/projects/spamx/ which started Sep 30, 2002
Both of which appear to be open source or free.
I should be flattered that the name I choose is so popular.
Maybe I should trademark pigstye and my little pig, since domain
speculators have purchased pigstye.com, thepigstye.net and
thepigstye.com and have them parked. (The speculator tried to sell me
pigstye.com a while back.) Then I could demand they give me the
domains, because they infringe on my trademark.
