Amen!


I tried using it following your "Quick Start" guide, but failed miserably :(

- How do I set the status of a Page (for example to ``Ready`` or ``In progress``).

- Where can i see the final result? On index.html? Do I need to parse the project.md somehow?


Sorry if that doesn't seem to be clear enough! Good questions, I'll update the Guide soon.

- So you put all the page names inside the /project.md file. Now, according to what you just put in there, you upload your page templates/projects to 'project/' directory (each page being a separate directory that matches one on the list created inside /project.md). `Ready` status is simply when page directory exists, and `In progress` when it's only listed inside the /project.md file but is not yet created.

- This one is super simple. Just upload the projector directory to your server and rename it as you wish eg. domain.com/clients/sony/ ('sony' being your projector folder) and access that url.


All these years later, the flame goes on :p


We manage the deployments of our Django application, in multiple environments (production/staging/experimental/development) using Buildout. It probably is quite difficult to learn at first, but very rewarding once you get the hang of it. Deployment is all about being confident. And the confidence that Buildout has given us, is uncomparable to anything else.

A cool way to produce various settings/configurations, is using the Buildout recipe collective.recipe.genshi. This enables us to create settings based on templates, using buildout configuration parameters. Very flexible solution!


I haven't found a single mention about him not being a good developer. Do we have any references?


Well, there's this: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=923775

But my point was not so much that he's a bad developer but that his software resume is not as impressive as those he compares himself to.


Have you ever seen the fetchmail source code?


My brain is still trying to recover from that particular experience.


Didn't he take that over from someone else?

Edit: Yes, it was written by a guy named Carl Harris and ESR took it over when Harris no longer wished to maintain it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fetchmail


Why, what's wrong with it?
