OSS sit-repPosted by Synfinatic on October 5, 2008 at 4:42 pm in Code.I figured I’d write a quick situation report on the three open source projects I’m involved with: Tcpreplay Pretty much in total maintenance mode right now. I’m more then happy to help users and fix any bugs which people report, but I’m not working on any new features right now. Tags: Cabernet, openpacket, tcpreplay
Prawn- not just for the BBQPosted by Synfinatic on August 10, 2008 at 11:19 am in Cabernet.With the upcoming move, we’ll have to unload & reload our wine collection from the wine cabinet. For some people that may not be a big deal, but when you’re dealing with a few hundred bottles being tracked in a database, it’s important that all the bottles go back to their original location after the move. Hence I’ve been looking at generating a printable inventory that we can take with us for the move. As you may know, printing web pages doesn’t always give the expected results, so I’ve been playing with generating PDF files. Tags: Cabernet, pdf, prawn

Wine Forums: WTF?Posted by Synfinatic on July 20, 2008 at 9:27 pm in Cabernet.Ok, I know I can be a bit acidic in person, but even when I’m on my best behavior I somehow cause all the trolls to show up and pester me. Tags: Cabernet, cellartracker, search, vinocellar

Building a CommunityPosted by Synfinatic on July 13, 2008 at 10:05 am in Cabernet.Since good things come in threes, I decided to write about what I think it takes to build a successful team to run a community website. If you haven’t yet already, be sure to read Part One and Part Two first. Tags: Cabernet, community, openpacket, people, project management
I don’t completely suck after allPosted by Synfinatic on July 7, 2008 at 8:42 am in Cabernet.So I’ve spent a great deal of time over this 4th of July holiday working on Cabernet and I have to say, it’s beginning to look presentable. Tags: Cabernet, Code, css, pretty
Rails 2.1Posted by Synfinatic on June 8, 2008 at 3:40 pm in Cabernet.I’ve successfully migrated Cabernet over to Rails 2.1. Not being a power-rails developer, there doesn’t seem to be a whole lot that has changed. Most of the API remains the same, and the one thing that’s changed (pagination) has been replaced with an easier to use module (will_paginate). Tags: Cabernet, rails, ruby
Cabernet isn’t deadPosted by Synfinatic on June 2, 2008 at 11:15 pm in Cabernet.With tcpreplay 3.3.2 development wrapping up, I think I’ll take a break from C and concentrate on Ruby. I’m still using Cabernet and with Passenger, it looks like my goal of distributing a Rails application is finally doable. So that means getting Cabernet ready for Rails 2.1 and of course cleaning up the UI so it’s not so horribly ugly. Tags: Cabernet, rails, ruby, ui
Mission statementsPosted by Synfinatic on May 31, 2008 at 9:12 pm in Life, tcpreplay.So I was reading an article about a talk the Subversion authors gave and one of the things that stood out was the importance of having a mission statement to guide development and keep focus.
