RE: Hello All. :-) Usage of UBH 3.x

Gerard:

Thanks so much for -all- of the work you've done on this great product.  If 
I came off sounding negative at all about UBH, I certainly did not intend 
that.  I wouldn't bother to add any features either, after all, what more 
could it need?  And as for patches from outside developers, 20 minutes of 
reading the old -devel list on sourceforge and checking the changelogs from 
versions past show that you've probably spent about as much time fixing 
other people's untested/unportable/unhelpful commits.  I'm very glad to hear 
you intend to move forward with the project, and I'd be glad to help in any 
way that I could - assembling docs, working up a stable3 guide for your 
website, anything at all - just let me know.

Also, I've been toying with the idea of setting up a PHP frontend to the ubh 
components and the MySQL data.  I love the idea of "shopping" binaries, and 
if people have MySQL running already, getting PHP and Apache going shouldn't 
be too difficult (I already need this functionality for other OS projects 
I'm involved in like MythTV).  I'm curious, would you be comfortable with 
such an 'addon' frontend?  It would of course be necessary to differentiate 
anything I did in that respect to the ubh project proper - keeps the support 
mailing list short ;)

Let me know what you think.
Josh

Only if you prefer the -b technique.

I think most people use -I, which still works the exact same way it
did in 2.x.


A big THANKS to you Josh for digging up this quickstart info
and reposting it.

Good luck everyone.

I just have to get a WinCVS client going on my most recent
computer, and then I can continue developing/maintaining/releasing
in the coming months/year.

For the record, I am not interested in adding any new features.
I am not interested in accepting any patches either.  There is
a long (many years long) legacy of damage caused to ubh by doing
this, so I will not be accepting any patches for the forseeable
future.

The good news is that I have a few small tweaks/fixes to check
into CVS in the near future (eg, null subject header checking).

I'm very unhappy with the performance of ubh, and will
likely take steps to address that.


-Gerard

PS: Many of you have asked how you can help the project.
     I have an amazon.com wishlist under the name "gerard lanois".
     Direct cash donations can be sent to my paypal account at
     [email protected].  Also, sponsorhips and consulting services
     are a good way to contribute.
