Yoper Devs, This is a really old thread so I'll summerize instead of inline posting. Walter generously purchased the domain Yoperstuff.com for a news source to benefit the Yoper community. The domain name expires in October and he was wondering if he should continue to pay for the domain name.
As some may know the website has been "under development" by myself for a while. You can preview it at http://www.yoper.com/joomla where I'm building it out (yes I know it's rough in IE6, and the logo looks messed up in every browser). My main point is that I've moved over all the news content from the Yoperstuff.com domain so we can gracefully loose that domain. The new main yoper.com site will be managed under Joommla, just like Yoperstuff.com was. It will have its own news portal as a part of that CMS. You can see this taking place at the building area. The main point of this email is that the Yoperstuff.com content has been saved. Additionally, if anyone knowledgable about web design is interested in helping out with the new Yoper website speak up. I could use an extra hand ;) Patience is a virtue, the new site will be done eventually :) --Reid Miller (oreo_masta) -----Original Message----- From: Tobias Gerschner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tue 9/12/2006 1:23 PM To: Yoper Development List Subject: Re: [yoper-dev] Yoperstuff.com domain question 2006/9/12, Walter Hieber <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Hi guys.

Let me know what you think. > Best Regards, Walter Hi, Walter, yeah summer seems to be over in the crowded places on earth . At the end of the world the spring is starting :) . in my opinion we could easily handle a shop using existing domains. 5 USD a month is still money. About setting up a shop. First and foremost we need someone willing and able to setup and maintain an online shop. My to do list is way to long for that. With Reid's recent work on Joomla, there might be also a chance of far easier integration of a small scale online shop. Reid, what do you think ? regards -- Tobias Gerschner Member of Board of Yoper Linux Ltd. NZ Knowing is not enough; we must apply.
