I've kind of lost track of the threads, but just to clarify: - ibiblio doesn't solicit collections. you go to them, and if your materials are in scope, they usually say yes. they also aren't quick to turn things around, as has been pointed out, because they have a shoestring staff with huge col

If, short term or long term, OSU ends up hosting c4l.org, the journal would indeed be able to be hosted as well. -- jaf On 8/2/07 9:18 AM, "Tom Keays" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I agree with Kevin. #3 is also my first option. > > It makes a whole lot of sense for OSU to host it in the short-t

I vote for OSU over dan's personal machine. A personal machine is what we effectively had before, is still not professional-level sysadmining, and that's what I think we need. In the IRC chat (wasn't someone going to post the transcript?), OSU said they should be able to host the Journal WordPr

OSU++ At the risk of appearing impatient (probably not that far off at this point), if Dan is gone for a couple days, and this can be up on OSU this afternoon, what are we waiting for? Carol On 8/2/07, K.G. Schneider <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Concur, adding that going with #3 or #2 (no pref

I agree with Kevin. #3 is also my first option. It makes a whole lot of sense for OSU to host it in the short-term: 1. Jeremy is ready, willing, and able to do so and code4lib needs a new home 2. OSU is hosting the next conference, so there's that immediate aspect to consider Regarding "Dan's Mac

Concur, adding that going with #3 or #2 (no preference from me formally between the 2, you guys know better here) adds a much-needed release valve so you don't have to make a decision about the permanent home under pressure. Don't know that you need a formal RFP for permanent (well, longterm shack

I agree with this. Expectations of anvil's return to duty shouldn't add to the pressure of getting it running again. -Ross. On 8/2/07, Kevin S. Clarke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > So, to that effect, here's what I think the current options are: > > > > 1) Get it back up on anvil > > 2) Get it

I agree with Jeremy that we need to do something about getting the site up ASAP, and support the idea for a vote by 3 PM EST vote. It sounds like Anvil isn't a solution for now, so I think we need to look at the other two options. I'm happy with either, but if I have to choose, I say: 2) Get i

Hi Folks - So, I think many valid issues have been raised, especially Dan's and Karen's in regards to longevity and exit strategy, and long-term hosting of code4lib.org needs to be thought out carefully. But instead of delving into that at the moment, I'm starting a new thread here, because I per
