For fear of a dead link

Not always a good thing! That is getting lost in hypertext world! Here's the new, and permanent URL for my cgit instance: ccgit.packets.cc. I renamed my cgit project because c, for my XMPP nickname chunk, seemed too convenient to pass up. I can't really say that I legitimately forked cgit so I don't know what kind of repository it would actually be considered. However it's general purpose, though it's currently private and sorry to disappoint you now, is install.sh and the fact that for my iteration on any new webserver this works 100% correctly. I am really really stoked about that because I did indeed put some effort into smoothing out all it's undocumented hiccups, cgit that is. Also I have made it pretty, yay!

I am stoked to keep my eyes open for more inspiring open source projects like xserver or xlibre that are like, doing good work. I can not promise perfect uptime, cuz yea, but I wish to mirror more cool stuff on it. The next bout of development for this project is non-existent yet, but probably at some point I might work into it my own unique way of using Linux server OS and some funky backend user/repo/project management. As well, though I'm still not sure how, I think it would be very nice to make a mini login, but using Linux server OS actual users and perhaps PAM authentication and accounting, but without giving users shells, and allow members of a little community to have their own cooperative access to repos. That would be very damn cool. It's quite possible that for my first quantifiable exercise in C programming, ccgit/cgit will be my first interest :D

A quick note about a bash blog extension idea

Hello again ! Here's another quick post for today about a sweet idea I've been curing in my brain about how to extend bash blog. Bash blog is what this blog is made with. It's a single, yes one, bash script on command line that manages and assembles this entire blog :)

I thought, and though this isn't keeping with the theme of bash blog, about a PHP extension that where a link posted can take you to a web form that you can subscribe to this blog and a mail server running on the host will send a preprogrammed mail to each email in the list. When a new post happens, and/or if any mailing list type like thing, such as an announcement or off the site news, happens. It shouldn't be honestly very very difficult. It would be comprised of a configuration file for environment variables such as mail host, to and from addresses, subjects and layout email templates. Also signatures. All the stuff one would expect in a mail out type of function :)

For a little while I hosted an old school telnet BBS system on battlecruiser.co but it wasn't long before it was getting attacked and it didn't really appeal to me. The BBS reminds me of the simple mail server that I also have, and a good amount of like minded people I've met on XMPP/IRC have also. It would work on a very simple postfix smtp send only setup and it's possible it might not require an actual mail system at all!

I can't be too sure when or even if this will happen but I like the idea and if you want to try to do this up then I should have a contact page eventually and I'd be willing to help :)
