inch by inch

today: about 1 hour working on potential mail scenarios & file transfer setup
total: 5.5 hours

so it's true. we are svenATyouthlib.com, gretchinATyouthlib.com, as well as sven & gretchin at everything else on the server. :) have a better handle on mail options and they're extremely flexible: both local & remote access and all combinations thereof, using pop, imap, webmail, pine, etc etc. whee!

also i'm locally=tcsh. yes.

webdav, alas, isn't an option. we'll probably use fugu instead.

better than nothin'

time:
today: about 1 hour getting index.html up & writing about it; reorganizing some of the dev sidebar
total: 4.5 hours

the most minor amount of pagework ever, using the text sven worked on previously, but there's finally a marginally useful index.html page on youthlib.com. still much work to do, but at least people running into it won't be faced with a blank blog (i'm thinking especially of the people from the coast). round 1 site goals still apply, and i'd like to be using css instead of tables & ill-formatted text.

michael, i'm still interested in talking to you about how you were thinking of using mt as a content management tool (and i have some email identity stuff to get to, too), but in the meantime i moved all the mt files into a directory marked "mt" and changed the paths info in the weblog config files.
