A Wiki, a Note Pad, a Feed

10/11/09 10:44


I think this is a very amazing tool, just because it encourages writing.
I think I will settle on capitals for begining of sentences, a various other norms of writing. This is so easy, do I need more?

But I thought, not unreasonably, that I would like to mirror these posts - is it a blog? - into my blogger blog, SemanticC. As I don't often post there and this machine is not always available.
I will get onto that, but first, point out -

a. Yes, it is true, this is not a blog, or a very sophisticated wiki, no subscriptions, or not easily, no various other bits.

b. As you will see, who needs the clutter?

c. this is only 1 - 3 meg memory footprint, compare to firefox - 340, artifactory - 259, nepomuk - 200, tomcat - 170, konquerer - 25, other nepomuk services 14 each and so on.

lua is suitable for embedding in phones as can be seen. I wonder how hard that is?

d. markdown, the styling syntax is dead simple and unobtrusive.

e. the whole interface is a joy of simplicity, once mysteries have been solved, such as the alias game, which is too much fun!

As a feed.

There is a feed to these pages and, I believe, the whole output is available too, as feedvalidator.org shows.

But there seems to be no way of echoing a followed blog from blogs I am reading into the main blog.
I imagine this is because one shouldn't quote without reading first, but still I'm a bit surprised. In my case, anyway, I just want to syndicate my own material. Perhaps I have missed something?
What I haven't missed is that when I copy it into a post it becomes, from something elegant, a whole mess to the point of being impossible to read.
Keeping things simple, legible and attractive in blogger is an effort.
What to do?

This Is How It Works

nanoki keeps a reference to the address that it is contacted from, whether internal or external.
an edit from a different internal machine yields a different alias.
an edit from the same machine, no matter the address is conjoint.biz or 192 ... is the same alias.
does nanoki just resolve it to the same internal address or is it relying on a cookie sent to the browser?
not too bothered to find out at the moment.
does my machine resolve all internal request to the same address, or series of addresses, which nanoki then receives?

what is important is that it is possible to to check my machine is available on certain posts. but gibson shieldsup is not quite enough on its own as I found I didn't understand what it meant when it reported a port closed. now I do know I guess it would be, but I also used http://www.websitepulse.com/help/tools.php?

Who Am I

So now I come in from conjoint.biz, I assume a different alias.
But how about www.conjoint.biz and my internal address, 192... ?
Anyway ...

So, who am I now, coming in from a different internal address, no cookies?

Internal Alias

10/11/09 10:03



This is me on the internal net, but not localhost, which, by the way, is not available.
That is another story.
linux -
1. many routing tables - 255 c.f. route and ip route
2. a host table
3. but why is it that tomcat can start in two instances and both available as 192...:port, localhost:port and conjoint.biz:port? Whereas this is not so of nanoki?

No wonder I thought is was the firewall!
Not sure at the moment what I need to look for to sort out. Presumably it is either in the host table, but I don't think there is any port number given in that, or it is the way nanoki binds to an address?

I think I'll move on for now.

This is from around 2005.
I have also done same with zoe, also from around 2005.
Interesting.
CoffeeShop, with multiple projects, needed a lot of work reconciling dependencies.
In come my friends jarvana and so.
zoe [1.,2.,3.,4.] is different, and, in a way, more complex.
zoe is configured for maven1 with a project.xml file.
It is instructive making the conversion by hand. Certainly the mvn one:convert tool cannot cope.
There are guesses that can be made that must be regular mappings. So why not look at the xsd for each version, along with any notes, and make a map from this, say using generateDS?

There are some other things.
The way I see it is that we have.


  1. ant builds - these entail finding canonical versions of referenced artifacts across a system - as far as is
    possible.


    1.1. when artifacts have been resolved the .properties file needs to be referenced in the created pom


    1.2. the build.xml file needs to be parsed, from what I can see just for directory locations


    1.3. the build file remains intact, other tasks, such as code generation, will be invoked via ant


    1.3.1. some tasks are ant like and it is not reasonable to use maven for them. However some tasks imply something
    about structure that really needs to be resolved in the pom module dependency hierarchy.
    It is unclear how to make this distinction automatically, but a mechanism to create a module against
    which a specific complex ant task is run would go some way.


  2. maven1 builds - this would entail a mapping between the two as mentioned.


  3. creating canonical versions and canonical version management.


    3.1. creating canonical - there are different issues here. Finally it seems that there is no way of engineering
    an unknown version apart from doing a look up


    3.2. look ups have their own difficulties and interest. Sometimes a project cannot be found -


    3.2.1. the jar is not available on public repositories, e.g. Sun version jars


    3.2.2. the particular version is not available


    3.3. above seems to be an issue that could be solved with some very sophisticated search - more later


    3.4. canonical version management - augeas with the magic lens seems to be the way to control this and seems
    preferable to an XML db. It would only be build.xml that would be appropriate to an xml db anyway.


  4. issues to explore are semantic annotation, which would seem appropriate to build.xml etc. This maybe made
    automatic if it is possible to digest the nature of the ant tasks.

Remember this is a wiki not a blog, so page postings I guess. Wonder how formated.
alt.dev looks good and is intuitive.
So this is the main page.
