If you have tried to contact me through the contact form in last month or so — please accept my apologies. When .yu TLD went dead, I forgot to change the form code and emails went to the old domain.
Fixed now, things are back in order.
All posts in aplus
Protected posts?
As I’m baby stepping through the iPhone SDK development, I encounter some strange stuff. Given the unfortunate (to say the least) circumstance of the NDA still in place as of this writing, I can’t post publicly about it. I can’t ask on forums nor would anyone be allowed to answer. That’s how NDA stuff works.
In order not to lose these stuff and to keep note of problem and solution (if I find one) for future benefit, I’m doing this password-protected posts that I will reveal once NDA is lifted.
Which hopefully will happen’ at some point.
update: it did not take long – just days after I did this, Apple killed the NDA.
Moved to new domain
This domain used to reside on the aplus.co.yu domain. .yu domain belonged to former Yugoslavia, which has died, despite the futile attempts to keep whatever is left of it under the same name.
With it, the TLD is on its way out and the new Serbian domain is .rs
Thus this blog and all its auxiliary content is now under aplus.rs web address. All the links pointing to old web site will get R=301 message and will hopefully soon be pointing to new addresses.
Upgrading WordPress, the *nix way
I always forget the set of command line stuff I need to do when new version of WP is out. And always waste time figuring out what to do and which switches tar and cp needs. So, this is a reminder for the future.
wget http://wordpress.org/latest.tar.gz gzip -d latest.tar.gz tar -xvf latest.tar cp -r wordpress/* SITE/wpa
That should do it. Now off to upgrade rest of the blogs.
Note that wpa in the SITE/wpa above is my wordpress folder. Replace that with correct path for your installation.
Photography section updated
I have upgraded the My photography section to ZenPhoto 1.1.5, which brings along several long awaited features:
- SPAM-protected comments – most notably Akismet integration
- EXIF info extraction
- Ratings, per album and per photo
There’s also bunch of new developments, all very welcome and which shows that this project is in good hands. Introduction of Akismet allows me to re-enable the comments, which I had to turn off due to massive SPAMfection after just a week of the original gallery being online. I have good experience with Akismet in blog comments – I expect it to work the same here.
If you havent looked recently, there’s bunch of new photos of my little kid, as well as nice gallery of my last visit to London.
I also corrected some of the display issues with IE7 in the overall site layout.
