Thanks Oliver. I will digest your essay and get back to you. Maybe I
will check out the 0.6 branch as well.

Hi Ronan,
I guess this is the current target application for Radiant. But even
for that I believe it has some annoying design flaws.
Sure, if you are only looking for comments, you might as well use a
real blog software such as Typo or Mephisto, but Radiant wants to be a
CMS not a blog. And for a CMS I believe it lacks much more than just

Hi Oliver,
We are using it on a production site but one with relatively modest
needs right now. I really liked how easy the whole experience was
compared with something like blogsam for example. It helps to know Rails
obviously but this was a breeze to set up and use. I can see that it
could use a few more bells and whistles-- comments on posts, etc. but

Hi Ronan,
What is it that you like about Radiant and are you using in on a
production site?
I have been using and programming for Radiant before it was released,
but the main developers are not fond of my ideas such that most of my
efforts don't fit into their model of how Radiant should work. So, I

Hi Oliver,
I just set up Radiant and am very impressed in it. Are you involved with
it?

I should be there the entire time as well. Probably roaming around,
working here and there. Though, if you have questions about Radiant
CMS you can ask me.
Cheers,
Oliver

There's a good chance I'll be there. The past couple of months at work I've
been busy implementing a cross-platform Rails-based solution at work on
OpenVMS and Windows. If anyone wants to chat with me about that, I'll be
the guy at the "Debian live CD" table.

Possible Meet And Greet?

2007-04-10T21:35:23Z

Ok, I've been meaning to try to arrange another meet and greet for a
while now, and someone reccomended to me a particular venue that I
thought would work well, so I thought I would toss it out there.
Every term, the Dal-ACM throws an Installfest in the Dal Computer
Science building. The summer one is being run on April 22nd.

open ([link]).
If any of you are going, O'reilly has given us a promotion code to get

Hi all,
next week would be great as I will be able to join you guys.
To introduce myself, I have been working with Sean on a few Rails
projects and was a little bit involved with RadiantCMS. Unfortunately
lack of time and conflicting philosophical beliefs do not permit much
recent RoR development, though I am interested in what other people do

Re: Meetings

No problem, we can put it off till next week/month.. looks like it'll be
me and you to start, anyhow, so it'll likely be just me for the first
official meeting. The meet 'n' greet will go *that* much smoother.
Let me know if there's a better time for you when you're feeling better.

Hey All,
I've been feeling under the weather for the last few days, so I don't
think I will be able to meet up with anyone if this is still
happening.

Hi All
I would enjoy meeting and talking about ruby/rails/databases etc.
To introduce myself, I have years of experience in designing
databases and writing database driven business applications.
In my current contract I am bringing a company with a successful
Point of Sale application from a C/ISAM environment to a

Microformats: Do you speak it?

2006-11-25T17:16:28Z

The other day at DevEast, the topic of Microformats came up a few
times. As the rails project I work on does involve calendar data, I
went and embedded hCal markup a while back (well, it's in the
repository anyway). Does anyone else use them? And if so, for what?
Cheers,

Hey Charles, glad you could make it here.
I second the meet and greet on the 12th.
Thanks for offering up a venue for this sort of thing!
