[Webteam] Some basic details

These are some details I was sharing with Ken yesterday about what an image for squeak.org might need: 

"box4 sounds right. I don't know what you need to do to it for preparation. I checked and I can log into box4. I think I need to review how you start processes with daemontools. I have a few emails of yours about that. 
Unless you would like to keep a unified VNC application in your rig, I'd just as soon use Ian P.'s internal RFB, as I'm familiar with it. 

At the moment on box3 I'm using Cog 4.0-2550, which a quick look at mirandabanda.org, tells me I should upgrade to something like 4.0-2778, as mine is almost two years old. 

There are one or two quirks of the rig. I start the image on the command line with the image drawing in a file on start up called squeakstart.st. I prefer to have the commands for starting the application in a file on start, as I find it reliable and scriptable. This is all it says. 

squeakstart.st 

(ALServer on: 8624 application: SQSqueakApplication new) start

The other thing is Altitude is bleeding edge. Robust, but it needs a symlink from the vm directory to libcrypto.so or it cannot find the libcrypto library that Xtreams requires. Colin never deployed it. I was the first, so I'm finding my way. 

I'll copy this information to the webteam list when we get it opened up."


I have a list of issues in my Apple Notes application called "squeak.org issues". This is the state of it at the moment:

squeak.org issues
some image links are to chriscunnington.com 
it needs to be started with a command line file called squeaksite.st
zip resources for faster download; how do I do that? 
use minified versions of files 
put 4.5 announcement between Welcome To Squeak and Take Part In The Innovation?
says 4.4 instead of 4.5 
get that 404 image (broken paper showing a code browser) out of my email Archive or something 
wrapbootstrap.com
check multi platform layouts 
make a list of Tim R.’s ideas for changing the look of the site (different orders for menu items and carrousel pictures; different pictures for carousel i.e. Linux RPi not RISC OS


Thoughts welcome.
