13:45 < Utopiah> http://wiki.seedea.org/Content/ToolsRSSnotifier
13:48 < Utopiah> still pass there so basically the idea was to customize https://rssnotifier.dev.java.net/
13:48 < hivemind-sb> Title: rssnotifier: RSS Notifier (at rssnotifier.dev.java.net)
13:49 < Utopiah> in order to have GITS animation visuals and being able to pull a configuration from a website
13:49 < Utopiah> so for example clients would have a preconfigured BlinkenVenture.com desktop assistant
13:49 < Utopiah> based on RSS Notifier
13:50 < Utopiah> which would obviously make a nice marketing following process
13:50 < Utopiah> (I discussed with the author of RSS Notifier and he though it was a nice idea)
15:41 <~arthax0r> Utopiah: that is a nice idea... too bad it is written in java :<
15:41 <@djweezy> lol, but so true
15:41 <~arthax0r> perhaps we could just write a non-suck version? :)_
15:42 <~arthax0r> cuz i really like the thought
15:46 <~arthax0r> http://wiki.seedea.org/Content/ToolsRSSnotifier <- pass required
15:47 <~arthax0r> http://yarssr.sourceforge.net/ <-non suck, need port to win tho?
15:47 < hivemind-sb> Title: Yarssr - Yet Another RSS Reader (at yarssr.sourceforge.net)
15:47 <~arthax0r> well, and it doesn't quite have the notifier i suppose
15:48 <~arthax0r> either way that should be easy to create from scratch
15:56 < Utopiah> Why is java a problem?
15:56 < Utopiah> I mean starting sth from scratch for a mock project sounds like overkill to me
15:56 <~arthax0r> why *isn't* it?
15:57 <~arthax0r> firstly you have to install a bunch of java script, second then you have to update it all the time, third it is prone to memory leaks like a seive
15:57 <~arthax0r> s/script/crap/
15:58 <~arthax0r> define 'GITS animation visuals'?
15:58 < Utopiah> Tachikoma <3
15:59 <~arthax0r> sweet lookin bot!
15:59 < Utopiah> that's the idea :]
16:00 < Utopiah> regarding the language, just dont suggest a crappy vendor dependant VM one (hint hint)
16:00 < Utopiah> (and dont mention Mono)
16:01 <~arthax0r> COBOL?
16:01 < Utopiah> know any good RSS library for it?
16:02 <~arthax0r> um, no
16:02 < Utopiah> well actually I should have to care about that anyway, Ill wrote down the requirements and let you know when the wiki is updated, cool with that?
16:02 < Utopiah> s/should/should *not*/
16:03 <~arthax0r> lol, ya that is cool
16:03 < Utopiah> or better, hivemind-sb will follow and announce the wiki RSS here
16:03 <~arthax0r> i was googling 'easiest language to port between windows and linux' and mono was the first applicable result
16:04 < Utopiah> lies!
16:04 < Utopiah> infidels!
16:04 < Utopiah> anyway, configuring the bot
16:07 < Utopiah> where is the wiki? I need to allow RSS feed in it

16:07 <~arthax0r> ~/subdomains/wiki/public_html
16:07 < Utopiah> thanks subdomains ok
16:07 <~arthax0r> ^is not pretty but works as win version so whatever
16:08 < Utopiah> win version?
16:08 < Utopiah> ah ok
16:08 <~arthax0r> as in windows
16:08 <~arthax0r> == most clients prolly
16:08 <~arthax0r> altho hopefully we can get some real intelligent ones that are not
16:09 <~arthax0r> so, two tray notifiers
16:09 <~arthax0r> i think that we should link to those from our web site under 'client communication tools'ish page
16:09 < hivemind-sb> New news from blinkenventurewiki: Site / SideBar || Main / HomePage || Main / PageLists || Project / Mock || Project / Project
16:10 < Utopiah> don't worry, Ill add all that to the project page
16:10 < Utopiah> in a "potential platform" section
16:11 < Utopiah> (thanks /lastlog http easy to get last links to add to the wiki)

16:18 <~arthax0r> so from all that what i gather
16:19 <~arthax0r> is that a potentail side-project of interest for a couple of us may be building a quick rss notifier in c or python (or perl if feeling suicidal)
16:20 <~arthax0r> while trying to keep it portable enough to be easy to perhaps at some time later produce a windows version
16:20 <~arthax0r> i just had a crazy mind altering thought tho, so i'll bbiaf
16:41 < hivemind-sb> New news from blinkenventurewiki: Profiles / Profiles || Profiles / Utopiah || Project / Template
16:42 <~arthax0r> splendid!
16:43 <~arthax0r> we need a page that clearly labels each of our applicable skills that we can honestly dedicate to this venture .. as opposed to just our public profile
16:44 < Utopiah> (hence the Person.Person earlier proposal)
17:05 <~arthax0r> hopefully i will finish this sharing crap today, then i am going to code up the trouble tickets plug and write a couple articles
