Hi all,
I was speaking with Dutty and was going to start him a website so he could load some ROMs up for everyone's enjoyment but neither he nor I have the time to webmaster, was wondering if i could get a volunteer. I will provide all the hosting and the domain, which we still havent picked any ideas . Shouldn't be too time intensive, we arent wanting him to have his own forum or anything he will still be here for that just maybe a FAQ repost and some other minor stuff. Let me know if you are interested, PM me for more information.
Thanks again man, nice and thanks for offering
I can transfer the actual site as soon as my server is back up and running. But be sure what you offer and if your server can handle that awesome amount of connections and downloads in parallel. good luck
i can make the repository....im a php geek...should be a no brainer as long as the hosing is quality...any chance its a cpanel host? id install an open source prog...prob joomla or wordpress....then some light skinning
It will actually be meant to help him out, it is a Microsoft Hosting solution, PM me for some more details if you want to get a hand in helping. I am not sure if it will be able to handle all the trafic Mr. Dutty generates but it should help get his ROMs out.

lol well if you don't trust M$, you could always use Apple.... (maybe not)
not to stray off topic or anything
but yeah... Dutty... if you need a repository, i can build one for ya in less than 24 hours... its 1am in Hawaii, so ill hit the sack soon...
after thinking about it... something like dotProject may be better... this would include your repository AND your bug tracker / report module....wouldnt surprize me if there wasnt a mobile skin for it allready... i know that wordpress has a freebie mobile skin...
frankly, its gotta be a little disturbing for you to have to comb thru hundreds of pages of jibber jabber to find legit bugs... having a bug tracker built into the repository could simplify that for you.
ya know... theres allways the whole "hey community, why dont we chip in and buy dutty a hosting plan somewhere with the spex to host it "

Is ASP.NET enabled(if yes what version 2.0, 3.5?), and what should the site have?
Should it be a static page or a page with a control panel where someone can edit the page?

Ok guys this should help with some of the questions, it is a web site hosting package the details can be found at www.1and1.com it is the ms developer package.
why dont post them on usenet and post the nzb files on xda thatway the speed is fast and the roms dont use up ur bandwith....
or make a torrent out of it and start a xda dev torrent server...so everyone gets to share the bandwith
Try Drupal. Pretty nice CMS with lots of addons. I've used Joomla too, but its pretty heavy of an install (ie: overkill in my opinion) for what you are talking about.
Okay, site is back and running. Rom hosting is "outsourced" to another location. Thanks to frikibaby.
so have fun with testing dutty's roms.
k.
I had him on one of my servers, he was doing about 1.2TB/month in traffic. He wasn't really affecting my server, however, my other commitments required that I do some moving around, his site had to go... for now anyway.
never mind
I have set-up a irc channel for the Sensation. I set it up for a number of reasons. It allows users with issues to stop by the channel and get "instant" help from a dev or more experienced user. For Devs it gives them a place to go to get testers immediately for roms/apps they are working on. We have one for the moto xoom and all the devs come in there when they have things that need to be tested. I know it has made the dev's life easier for the xoom because whenever he needs someone to test there is usually someone available. My goal is to make this channel a great resource for devs, testers and power users to come together and share ideas etc... I'm also looking for a few trustworthy people to become mods in the channel. (Established devs always get mod access)
The channel is on freenode irc. #HTC-Sensation
if you dont have an IRC client you can access the channel by going to webchat.freenode.net
Now that people are getting the sensation stop by the channel!!
Normally this would belong in general, but right now the dev section is high-traffic thanks to the Rogers GB release and there is a lot of activity connected with the development effort on IRC.
Multiple devs here have received "why am I banned" PMs, and the threads here are cluttered with them.
We had a troll in the channel last night that was severely hampering development and testing efforts. The troll was using webchat and it seems that it is impossible to ban a webchat user effectively without outright banning ALL webchat users.
So if you are using webchat to access IRC, you will get a message that you are banned when attempting to enter #infuse4g on irc.freenode.net . As a result, you need to run a native IRC client on your machine such as xchat, Quassel, mIRC, irssi - the list of choices is quite long. Just not webchat.

Thanks for the reminder.
To start the process, once in IRC:
"/msg nickserv register" - nickserv will msg you back with more details.
I have a Microsoft developer account so if it is on that site please provide a link. I love testing new software out, in fact, I'm using Windows 8 right now Thanks in advance.

You have what? Something like that doesn´t exist on Microsoft´s sites.
You don`t know what a developer account is? It lets you deploy XAPs to your Windows Phone, and other cool things.
That´s App Hub account, not MS Developer Account. Anyway, "Tango" beta build is yet not available, and probably never will be, internal build is no use to you, since it authentificates against a server, and you will never obtain credentials.
Do you have it? I'm not trying to sound rude, I'm just wondering if thats where you got the screenshot from? If you do have it where did you get it.
I'm also not trying to sound rude, but you ask too much.
Good day
Hi,
Does anyone perhaps happen to know of an IRC app which you can first customize to your server and channel and then distribute with those settings included?
What I want to achieve is to get a chat app which I can give to people, which they can use to chat on my IRC-channel and server, without them knowing or having to learn anything about IRC,...
Any ideas are welcome!
Grtz,
