Another Upgrade … Another Post
March 15th, 2008 by Mark
It was again time for me to upgrade wordpress, so why not write up a post? Besides, Sid has been begging people to join planet.lilug.org. But we’ll get more posts on planet if we add more people and if those of us on planet post more often. So, here it is.
Lilug
John Kuczewski and Quarsaw brought up the idea of having Lilug tee shirts on the mailing list the other day and sufficiently guilted me in to finishing the work I had started on the Lilug cafe press store. $2 from every apparel purchase gets donated to Lilug. So go, shop, be merry. Buy yourself a Lilug tee-shirt with a Lilug button to pin to it. All of the cool kids are doing it. Lilug shirts are really ‘in’ this season.
LugRaffle
I’ve put a bunch of time in to the LugRaffle project that we’re doing at Lilug Dev-Sig. It’s coming along pretty nicely and is really fun to hack on. It’s to the point where it does ‘things’, but it still isn’t useful for holding a raffle. That’ll come soon enough. I welcome everyone to check it out and play around with it. You can browse the code via gitweb here: http://git.markdrago.com/git or clone it from here: http://git.markdrago.com/git/lugraffle .
House
So Jen and I are buying a house. It’s in Lindenhurst, at the end of a dead-end street, and in the Alleghany elementary school zone. It’s got four bedrooms, 1 newly renovated bath, a garage, a basement, and a decent sized yard. We’re pretty excited. We recently went to contract and we plan on closing in July. The current owners don’t want to move until the Summer, because they have kids in school, which is fine with us.
