Ah yes, well, being that we are all heavily involved with computers
this seems like a problem that could be solved with software, let's
see:
the attached files are the skeleton for an xml-rpc meeting location announcement
thingy written in python, it's very basic
run the server by starting it as
python meetserver.py &
and run the client as
python meetclient.py
Note that this program as currently written is not vulnerable to the
object traversal hack covered in
http://www.python.org/security/PSF-2005-001/
however future versions will probably not be safe to run on python < 2.3.5
TODO Server:
store state
expose addLocation and setLocation (requires authentication)
add time/calendaring
integrate with website (mod_python,CGIXMLRPCHandler)
TODO Client:
add options for addLocation and setLocation
add authorisation management
add html snippet output
if there's any interest we could get this to a point to field on the
euglug.org server

Do you know what your IT infrastructure does?

self.locations.append(params)
def setLocation(self,index):
if 0 <= index <= len(self.locations):
self._index = index
def getLocation(self):
return self.locations[self._index]
if __name__=='__main__':
meet = Meeting()
meet.addLocation(
{
'street': '228 Main St.',
'city' : 'Springfield',
'state': 'Oregon'
})
serv = SimpleXMLRPCServer(("localhost",8000))
serv.register_function(meet.getLocation)
serv.serve_forever()
#!/usr/bin/env python
import xmlrpclib
server = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy('http://localhost:8000')
location = server.getLocation()
tmpl = """The Next EUGLUG meeting will be at:

print tmpl % location
