I'll be there.

Godspeed buddy. XD

I've been working with javascript almost since its inception. It was the first language that I ever really hacked in. I remember having to code around document.layers (blecch!), and I've used javascript with a fair amount of success in the past.

But lately I've been reading up on jQuery. And I have experienced a profound moment of clarity. Using css selectors to manipulate the DOM is such a simple idea it qualifies as genius in my eyes. Using this along with asp.net mvc is simply a joy. There is no spoon.

Spoon boy: Do not try and bend the spoon. That's impossible. Instead... only try to realize the truth.
Neo: What truth?
Spoon boy: There is no spoon.
Neo: There is no spoon?
Spoon boy: Then you'll see, that it is not the spoon that bends, it is only yourself.

...and thank goodness that hiatus is over. XD

Open source (MSPL) Ribbon that actually has some potential, despite the currently incomplete coverage of ribbon features. It's a winforms control, and is the best looking free ribbon control that I have seen yet.

When trying to connect to a new subversion repository over apache 2.0 using subversion 1.4.5. Error number:165005

Looked at the error log for apache, and saw this:

[Wed Feb 20 14:00:15 2008] [error] [client 192.168.xxx] (20014)Error string not specified yet: Expected format '3' of repository; found format '5'
[Wed Feb 20 14:00:15 2008] [error] [client 192.168.xxx] Could not fetch resource information.  [500, #0]
[Wed Feb 20 14:00:15 2008] [error] [client 192.168.xxx] Could not open the requested SVN filesystem  [500, #165005]

and then found where the subversion modules lived in httpd.conf:

LoadModule dav_svn_module modules/mod_dav_svn.so
LoadModule authz_svn_module modules/mod_authz_svn.so

stopped apache, copied the two .so files from \subversion\bin to \apache2\modules and restarted Apache.

then holla'd w00t! XD
