Title: Status of Community? Post by: Jibe on June 01, 2006, 09:28:03 am Hello! I've just recently joined the YoB, but I noticed it's not exactly jumping around here, despite a few recent posts. So, what's the status of the Shiningsource community? Are most of the projects still being worked on?
I thought I'd just ask. Guess I'm lazy... :roll: ~Jibe Title: Status of Community? Post by: Devlyn on June 01, 2006, 10:43:17 am Many projects are rather inactive, but one new project has been launched recently, and several other projects are still ongoing or will be picked up again in a later stage.
There are some people (like me) though, who are having a tough time with work & school deadlines unfortunately :/. For example, I'm currently working on my Master's Project ;). Title: Status of Community? Post by: Jibe on June 01, 2006, 10:51:55 am Alrighty Dev, thanks for the info!
(Boo school. :<) Title: Status of Community? Post by: Newts on June 01, 2006, 03:26:59 pm It's not massively busy although it is probably the busiest it's been in quite some time. We're all preoccupied with something or other at the moment - I'm with Dev on the Uni front - but recently I think we've experienced a small but noticeable increase in posting.
Oh yes, and we have a girl here now. Title: Status of Community? Post by: acebloke on June 03, 2006, 12:30:20 pm This is the most busy its been for years.
Title: Status of Community? Post by: Devlyn on June 03, 2006, 12:42:59 pm Actually last year we had a really busy period too, but as of late things have been exceedingly dead :P.
That is about to change though, methinks ;). Title: Status of Community? Post by: Seanikins on June 03, 2006, 08:10:20 pm wooo!! go dev with his shining sideburns!!
*grabs book and reads under dev's sideburns* Title: Status of Community? Post by: Job on June 03, 2006, 09:43:30 pm What's your master's project about Devlyn?
Title: Status of Community? Post by: alberto on June 04, 2006, 08:21:41 am I think activity reaches its peak around here when i come out of lurking. =)
Title: Status of Community? Post by: Devlyn on June 04, 2006, 11:50:51 am Quote from: "Job" What's your master's project about Devlyn? Measuring the reliability of computational sites in the Grid. Quite a mouthful, eh? :P Title: Status of Community? Post by: Elvenfyre on June 04, 2006, 12:25:57 pm So you can say smart things like "They are fairly reliable" and look really smart?
:D haha nah sounds interesting, have you found any computers that have become sentient yet? I reckon they'd be the most reliable, not wanting to break or anything they'd do whatever it took to stay online! Title: Status of Community?

Post by: Newts on June 04, 2006, 03:05:12 pm Sounds about as exciting the last two assignments I wrote:
"An evaluation of a teaching and learning sequence in the classroom" And "Fostering 'Can-Do' Pupils: Empowering Language in the Classroom" That little phrase "in the classroom" is good for all seasons. My next assignment is about games. In the classroom. Title: Status of Community? Post by: Jibe on June 04, 2006, 03:12:52 pm Whenever I click buttons your website flips me off. :cry:
Title: Status of Community? Post by: Newts on June 04, 2006, 03:20:40 pm Which buttons? That sounds like the anti-leeching script has gone a bit haywire :newtstongue:
Title: Status of Community? Post by: Jibe on June 04, 2006, 03:22:40 pm Welp, I'm registered and was trying to leave a comment and the script goes off if I try to post it. (Reviewing works okay though).
But really I think your website's just a bastard. :D Title: Status of Community? Post by: Newts on June 04, 2006, 03:26:31 pm If we're talking about my blog - that's The Collected Writings of James Newton (http://www.prosody.co.uk/blog), everyone - that's maybe something to do with the anti-bratwurst thing I put on there. I'll have a look at disabling it, although hopefully soon it will look totally different.
Title: Status of Community? Post by: Jibe on June 04, 2006, 03:33:06 pm Why yes, it's funny you should mention :+: The Collected Writings of James Newton :+: since that's exactly the website I was talking about. :D
Anyways, I like the writings, yep. ;) Title: Status of Community? Post by: Newts on June 04, 2006, 03:36:07 pm I knocked off the bratwurst protection - perhaps that's what's been stopping everyone else commenting on :newtscrying: The Collected Writings of James Newton (http://www.prosody.co.uk/blog) :newtscrying:
Oh well, there's no excuse now. Title: Status of Community? Post by: Jibe on June 04, 2006, 03:45:39 pm By the way, does Ty exist any more? :?

Don't listen to him. He doesn't know anything. |
