Vacation
Posted on 16 August 1998, 16:41 GMT

The file archives won't be updated and the news will slow down for a week as I, Bryan Rabeler, am going on vacation. When I get back I will make sure that everything gets updated. I regret the inconvenience this will cause.

Has anyone seen TI-Files lately(today)? They aren't going to have updates either.

I couldn't help noticing that ti-files was down too, so here's my two cents. Could someone out there with a website volunteer to host the new files, anoounce the temp' site on ticalc.org, and just ship 'em all back to bryan when he gets back (or when he's finished with his changes)?

Great idea. If you have a file that you would normally upload to the archive, instead upload it to Geocities account "ticalcbackup". Password:"gslxfp" I'll probably regret this...
Oh yeah, if you want to download, the address is www.geocities.com/ReasearchTriangle/ThinkTank/6848/.
**PLEASE, PLEASE DON'T MESS WITH ANYTHING! IE, CHANGE THE PASSWORD, ETC. NOTE THAT THIS IS NOT MY SITE, IF YOU MESS WITH STUFF IN IT YOU'RE ONLY HURTING EVERYONE ELSE. AND WE'LL HATE YOU FOREVER.**

The site url is http://www.geocities.com/ResearchTriangle/Thinktank/6848/
for some reason tank in think tank has to be lowercase. Also a brighter idea instead of giving away the password is for people to email to you their files. Also I think everyone can last a week without calculator program updates unless you need them to keep your heart running.='P

They could take off the restriction on the incoming ftp folder so after ppl ftp their files to the server, others can check underneath the incoming folder to see what's been added. When Bryan comes back, he could move the files from the incoming folder to their places on ticalc.org and put the restrictions back on. I think this would be a great idea.

But then again, maybe Bryan is pulling a prank on TI-Files to see what they would do if ticalc.org don't update their files. What would they do now? Interesting isn't it...

I'm sorry to say it, but removing the restrictions on the incoming folder would be plain stupid.
Doing that would give us maybe one day before the server was flooded with lots of warez and things like that. It has happened to other sites I've been running, it would happen to this one. Sorry, but it's just not possible :-(
