Re: The latest toy: ePresence

I'll throw in on this too.  As Per a discussion with the developers, a set of linux client tools is in the works and release is immanent.  So it will be cross platform soon. As for the rest of the story, it is QUITE complicated and challenging to set up but if we keep in mind that it's being very ac...

Re: re: hamachi vpn + vncserver + skype

No, we're not talking about integrating them with Joomla! (at least not yet)  We're experimenting with tools to help us collaborate / learn together.  We've played around with ePresence now for awhile.  It seems like a great product but has a few kinks to work out.  I'm engaged in open dialog with t...

Re: Returning ONLY the data from a function, not all the joomla code...

I'm not quite sure how to implement this idea but I figured I'd throw it out there.  You could use something like an rss feed to return an xml file that your program could parse to get the data you want. Also, failing that, you could scrape the data you need out of the joomla code by searching for a...

The latest toy: ePresence

Hi all.  Just to keep everyone up to speed, we found a new toy to play with.  Actually, dax702 made us aware of it.   Thanks dax!  So we're experimenting with it.  Amy has a server running on Windows and I'm working on getting a version to run on Linux.  So far it seems like it's going to be ideal b...

Re: Authorization in a wrapper

Put this:

Code: Select all

defined('_JEXEC') or die('Restricted access');
at the top of your wrapper.  That will kill requests for direct access.

Re: Documentation

I love it.  I like your idea too Amy but maybe the files/classes layer would have to wait until 1.5 is official.  Sure would be difficult to track changes to to the code base I think.

Re: re: hamachi vpn + vncserver + skype

Well, it won't show video unless you share an applicaton like mediaplayer.  But then that's probably not going to be good at all because of the slow frame rate. 

By slow I mean that the frame rate is slow to unuseable.  Even showing static content like a desktop was not good.

We've played with two of these.  Dimdim worked but was wwwaaayyyy too slow and unreliable.  Also VMukti we played with but gave up when we found out that the users would have to install .net framework 3.0 on their computers (excluding linux users then).  Even then we couldn't connect.  Not a good so...

We're hoping that we can figure out how to record the meeting for later consumption but right now that's not proving easy. I've set up a monitor o...

We generally don't know in advance what specific thing we're working on.  It just happened that we were working with dimdim and wanted others to play too.
