01:16:03 <Guest34525> Hi. I'm not sure how widespread the issue is but http://cdn.portableapps.com is on one of the blacklists that Google runs Reported Attack Page.
01:16:29 <Guest34525> Anyone else seen this issue or do the web devs / admins know about this?
01:30:44 <JohnTHaller> Guest34525: Not sure what you mean. cdn.pa.c is a 3rd party content delivery network that hosts our images. It's run by RackSpace, one of the world's largest webhosts

02:58:17 <JohnTHaller> kAlug: It looks correct, yes.
02:58:39 <JohnTHaller> I just sent out a PA.c newsletter. And this one should come through properly formatted. If you get one could you please let me know that it is :)
03:01:25 <kAlug> OK. I still haven't got it.
03:19:22 <ZachThibeau> JohnTHaller: I didn't receive the newsletter
03:19:31 <ZachThibeau> yet
03:19:38 <JohnTHaller> I just sent it. Takes a while to go through 85k emails :)
03:19:47 <ZachThibeau> lol I can imagine
03:19:55 <ZachThibeau> which is I added yet
03:24:44 <kAlug> Just got something to work on during summer (winter in North America) school holidays: making PuTTY use INI files instead of the Registry.
03:25:13 <ZachThibeau> oh kAlug?
03:25:14 <JohnTHaller> KiTTY already does that, though.

03:27:27 <ZachThibeau> hello GordCaswell
03:27:34 <GordCaswell> howdy
03:27:48 <ZachThibeau> how's things?
03:28:08 <kAlug> It seems that it doesn't include Plink and Pageant, though. It would be nice if it could read its settings (e.g. host keys) from some central portable location like \Documents.
03:28:10 <JohnTHaller> hola GordCaswell
03:28:13 <kAlug> hello GordCaswell
03:28:38 <GordCaswell> not too bad. starting my 4 days on for work tomorrow, so i'll probably be a little quiet around here until next week tuesday
03:28:43 <GordCaswell> hi all!
03:30:17 <ZachThibeau> I'll get some slack picked up for the release team tracker, I have some free time to do some work
03:30:39 <ZachThibeau> that and learning some p ython
03:30:39 <JohnTHaller> Good. I'd like to start doing new apps again :)
03:31:13 <GordCaswell> Sounds good. i just took a look at the status page, and i see the status icons have disappeared from cdn.pa.c, so i'm busy updating them all at the moment
03:31:53 <JohnTHaller> huh?
03:32:10 <JohnTHaller> What status icons?
03:32:28 <GordCaswell> the check marks/x's/question marks.
03:32:56 <JohnTHaller> Don't think those were ever on cdn. Maybe I accidentally repointed them there
03:33:22 <GordCaswell> no problem, it was an easy fix
03:33:34 <GordCaswell> thank goodness for notepad++ and replaceAll
03:35:24 <GordCaswell> What do you want from us, Jon, in regards to new apps? simply signing off on apps being ready, or preparing the news & download pages, screenshots, etc?
03:35:51 <GordCaswell> errr... that doesn't look like it went through.
03:35:54 <GordCaswell> What do you want from us, Jon, in regards to new apps? simply signing off on apps being ready, or preparing the news & download pages, screenshots, etc?
03:35:58 <GordCaswell> *John
03:36:05 <JohnTHaller> Signing off for now. Prepping a description and the file details and screenshots would be great, actually. We should put together some guidelines on it.
03:50:17 <GordCaswell> As far as guidelines go, how's this: http://portableapps.com/node/29734#leads
03:51:46 <GordCaswell> I have templates for all of the neccasry pages on my pastebin
03:51:59 <JohnTHaller> No need for the news release (it's entirely based on the description anyway)
03:52:16 <GordCaswell> So just the download page, then?
03:52:19 <JohnTHaller> I gotta get the Drupal upgrade done soon as the app descriptions will be changing a little bit
03:52:55 <JohnTHaller> Not even the HTML or anything. Just the feature description paragraph like we have for others. And the screenshot (soon to be shots)
03:53:09 <GordCaswell> K, easy enough
04:01:06 <kAlug> Can anyone here help me with Windows C programming?
04:06:44 <JohnTHaller> Alright guys, sleep awaits me.
04:07:16 <kAlug> Good night.
04:07:31 <GordCaswell> night
04:10:28 <GordCaswell> kAlug: C was a long time ago for me, and I didn't use it much, but I can try
04:13:08 <kAlug> My C is also a bit rusty. What I actually need help with is Windows data types (LPCSTR etc.) and converting standard types like char * to them.
04:14:47 <GordCaswell> hmm...can't say that i ever did that, at least not that i recall. The last time i touched C was about 2002, i think. Sorry.

04:20:09 <kAlug> Alright folks, thanks for at least answering. I think I got it.

07:25:06 <kAlug> pa_6178:
07:25:28 <kAlug> right-click an app and select Category in the context menu.
07:28:41 <pa_6178> That was easy enough. Too bad it wasn't a little more intuitive or was documented. (No I couldn't do better and I am grateful.) Thanks.kAlug
07:29:26 <kAlug> You're welcome.
