Zopefish: a weblog about integrating Zope and Radio Userland
1:02:55 PM

Building Python and Zope on Mac OS X 10.1.x - I will use the pre-compiled distro (see my post earlier today) but just in case it doesn't work it's good to have this link around for reference.

Via K-Logs: Knowledge management is about desire - i.e. the desire to gather, create and share knowledge - Agreed! I wish more people had this desire. As the ease of use of K-Log tools increases and more people use them, this desire will be easier to spread.

Excellent Rant by Jim Roepcke - Why Offices Suck and Why Working at Home is Great - I understand where Jim's coming from but personally I like going out to lunch with people and I like the social drop-in aspect of working in an office. I don't like excessive meetings and I agree, knowledge managment and discipline are lacking in most offices!

Tab Bars in Zope
1:00:42 AM

Parsed XML "allows you to use XML objects in the Zope environment. You can create XML documents in Zope and leverage Zope to format, query, and manipulate XML, using the standard W3C DOM."

Got the calendar working today!

I had to:

Hardcode myUserlandSuite.blog.getUrl to return my URL rather than the cloud URL
Put a call to {calendar} in my template after calling and running Mark Paschal's awesome makeWebCalendar script. Otherwise, the calendar links pointed erroneously to the Cloud.

It seems that the code in Radio Userland is built around the assumption that you are either FTPing, using the Cloud or copying it to a Manila site. My case, where I am running RU on the same server as Apache and am serving off directly off the WWW folder and NOT FTPing or copying to a Manila site doesn't seem to be handled. Perhaps there is a better way to do this?
