Events: 1) I volunteered to take over website maintenance. 2) It was decided to create a new fastcode website domain and presence. 3) Pierre has registered fastcodeproject.org and we'll use it soon. 4) Dennis Christensen sent me the content managment database file containing the FastCode website. I downloaded and installed the Encore Pro CMS software and exported the entire site to an external directory. 5) I uploaded the entire directory to : http://fastcode.sourceforge.net/ 6) You will see that I changed the opening verbiage to "Welcome to the Fastcode Project Site." And, that I gave credit to Dennis Christensen for the original design of the website. (I think more thanks should be given to Dennis somewhere prominent on the site). Issues: There appears to be missing XLS and ZIP files for the "Validation and Benchmark Tool" and "Tables of results" hyperlinks for each challenge. The Urls are pointing to files that should exist in the subdirectory within the site, but those files do not exist in the Content Management System database Dennis C. sent to me. Do we need those files? I assume we do. Please advise. -d Back to top Pierre le Riche Guest Posted: Tue Oct 11, 2005 11:45 pm    Post subject: Re: Fastcode Website Status Hi Dennis, Quote: 3) Pierre has registered fastcodeproject.org and we'll use it soon. I've set it to forward to fastcode.sourceforge.net so long.

Do we need those files? I assume we do. Please advise. After going through Dennis' live site, its clear that the xls and zip files represent hundreds of megabytes that definitely would have bogged down the CMS database. So I just solved the problem by downloading every xls and zip file by hand. I will take me a couple days to upload all the files. I'll do it in phases. -d Back to top Dennis Landi Guest Posted: Tue Oct 11, 2005 11:52 pm    Post subject: Re: Fastcode Website Status "Pierre le Riche" <pleriche (AT) hotmail (DOT) com> wrote Quote: Hi Dennis, 3) Pierre has registered fastcodeproject.org and we'll use it soon.

To all: If there are any odd xls or zip files that are missing, please try to find them and then get them to me.

Default limit for SF websites is 100 MB, for more webspace you're supposed to issue a support request or webcontent may get deleted http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=4297&group_id=1#acceptable_use Also file releases and large downloads should be made by the file release system (no size limit there) to preserve webserver bandwidth. https://sourceforge.net/project/admin/editpackages.php?group_id=88789 And then one "package" per challenge?

If the benchmarks and test results constitute a "file release" then we can simplify this process greatly, as we remove it from the realm of "website maintenance" and any number of managers can upload these files as necessary. In the meantime, the zip and xls file are downloadable from the site, as they have been up to now. -d Back to top Dennis Landi Guest Posted: Wed Oct 12, 2005 1:28 pm    Post subject: Re: Fastcode Website Status "Dennis Landi" <nada@nada> wrote Quote: "Eric Grange" <egrangeNO (AT) SPAMglscene (DOT) org> wrote in message news:434ca498$1 (AT) newsgroups (DOT) borland.com... 152 megs actually.

I'm not really sure either, best would be to ask SF in case of doubt. Personally I place in the "File Release" category all things that are susceptible to be downloaded by many and are "large" when compared to the rest of the web content (html and images). IMO B&V and Excel sheets are probably okay website-side, since "normal" users are unlikely to download them in great numbers. But packaged libraries and multi megabyte zips may be best on the FRS side though.

Mixed-mode might be the way: old challenges, low activity challenges stay on the web side, very active one could go FRS-side (making it easier for whoever is responsible of the challenge to keep things together and timestamped).

Please email me at denins [at] dennislandi [dot] com for the ip address. Done Pierre, I'll be getting a preliminary web page up today, at least just pointing to the FastCode Challenge page on SF. I see the SF site doing the "heavy lifting" of the actual work of the project. I see the fastcodeproject.org as the "portal" or front door for the FastCode Project and community. To All: Let's start talking about what you want to see on this portal. -d Back to top Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First         BorlandTalk.com Forum Index -> Delphi Language BASM All times are GMT Goto page 1, 2  Next Page 1 of 2   Jump to: Select a forum C++ Builder Newsgroups----------------C++ BuilderC++ Builder (ActiveX)C++ Builder (Announcements)C++ Builder (Command Line Tools)C++ Builder DatabasesC++ Builder Databases (ADO)C++ Builder Databases (Desktop)C++ Builder Databases (InterBase Express)C++ Builder Databases (Multi-Tier)C++ Builder Databases (SQL Servers)C++ Builder (Graphics)C++ Builder (IDE)C++ Builder (Internet)C++ Builder (Internet Socket)C++ Builder (Internet Web)C++ Builder (Jobs)C++ Builder (Language)C++ Builder (Language C++)C++ Builder (Compatibility with MFC)C++ Builder (Native API)C++ Builder (Non-Technical)C++ Builder (Students)C++ Builder (Third Party Tools)C++ Builder (Upgrade)C++ Builder (VCL)C++ Builder (VCL Components Usage)C++ Builder (VCL Components Development)C++ Builder (VCL Usage)C++ Builder (WinAPI)C++ Builder Installation Delphi Newsgroups----------------Delphi (General)Delphi ActiveX Controls UsageDelphi ActiveX Controls DevelopmentDelphi As400Delphi DatabasesDelphi Databases (ADO)Delphi Databases (dbExpress)Delphi Databases (Desktop)Delphi Databases (InterBase Express)Delphi Databases (Multi-Tier)Delphi Databases (SQL Servers)Delphi DeploymentDelphi GraphicsDelphi IDEDelphi InternationalizationDelphi InternetDelphi Internet Isapi-WebBrokerDelphi Internet WebSnapDelphi Internet WinsockDelphi JobsDelphi Language BASMDelphi Language ObjectPascalDelphi Model Driven Architecture (General)Delphi Model Driven Architecture (Third Party)Delphi MultimediaDelphi Native APIDelphi Non-TechnicalDelphi ObjectPascalDelphi OLE AutomationDelphi OO designDelphi OpenToolsAPIDelphi Reporting-ChartingDelphi RTLDelphi StudentsDelphi TeamSourceDelphi Thirdparty ToolsDelphi Thirdparty Tools (General)Delphi Thirdparty Tools (IntraWeb)Delphi Thirdparty Tools (RaveReports)Delphi UpgradeDelphi VCLDelphi VCL ComponentsDelphi VCL Components UsingDelphi VCL Components WritingDelphi WebServices SOAPDelphi WinAPIDelphi XMLDelphi Installationcomp.lang.pascal.delphi.components.misccomp.lang.pascal.delphi.components.usagecomp.lang.pascal.delphi.components.writingcomp.lang.pascal.delphi.databasescomp.lang.pascal.delphi.misccomp.sources.delphi JBuilder Newsgroups----------------JBuilderJBuilder AnnouncementsJBuilder Applet IssuesJBuilder As400JBuilder CompilerJBuilder CORBA/RMIJBuilder DatabasesJBuilder DB SwingJBuilder DebuggerJBuilder DeploymentJBuilder DocumentationJBuilder EnterpriseJBuilder HandheldJBuilder IDEJBuilder JavaJBuilder JavaAPIJBuilder Java LanguageJBuilder Java SwingJBuilder Java BeansJBuilder Java Beans UsageJBuilder Java Beans DevelopmentJBuilder JBCLJBuilder JDataStoreJBuilder JobsJBuilder LinuxJBuilder MacintoshJBuilder & MobileSetJBuilder MultiLingual AppsJBuilder Non-TechnicalJBuilder OpenToolsJBuilder Servlets (JSP)JBuilder StudentsJBuilder Team DevelopmentJBuilder Thirdparty ToolsJBuilder UpgradeJBuilder Installation InterBase Newsgroups----------------InterBaseInterBase Bug DiscussionInterBase GeneralInterBase IBConsoleInterBase OpenSourceInterBase ReplicationInterBase SQLInterBase ThirdpartyInterBase Installation Miscellaneous Borland Newsgroups----------------AppCenterAppServerEnteraVisiBroker  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum Powered by phpBB © 2001, 2006 phpBB Group SEO toolkit © 2004-2006 webmedic.
