I've just made my very first update to "Wikipedia":http://en.wikipedia.org/, and added

Alternatively, force the XMLHTTPRequest object to retrieve the content anyway by including this in the request:

req.open("GET", "xmlprovider.php");
req.setRequestHeader("If-Modified-Since",
    "Sat, 1 Jan 2000 00:00:00 GMT");
req.send(null);

to the "XMLHTTPRequest page":http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XMLHTTP#Microsoft_Internet_Explorer_Cache_issues. It didn't hurt one little bit

I'm going to try and create a Domino add-in task which will take blogs written in a Lotus Notes database and post them to a Wordpress et.al. blog via the "MetaWeblog API":http://www.xmlrpc.com/metaWeblogApi

It should be quite doable. It'll take a moment, because I'm doing this in my spare time, but I'll keep you posted.

Wir warteten Heute auf Lieferung unserer blauen Tonne; vergeblich. Keine Tonne in sicht. Nirgendswo. Sozusagen: no little blaue tonne anywhere on the front. Nor on the back.

From the openldap-software mailing list:

Is it possible to set up OpenLDAP in a way:

1) a client connects to a slave, and wants to write something,
2) slave connects to the master,
3) slave writes the change on behalf of the client, and gets the changes back
4) client is notified, that the change was done

Use OpenLDAP 2.3, and the set an instance of the "chain" overlay as global. Follow test007/test017 as guidelines; slapd-ldap(5) and slapo-chain(5) should be of help in configuring the required features of slapo-chain as appropriate.

I must test that. Just what the doctor called for.

As others also, I have a love/hate relashionship with Lotus Notes & Domino. I exchange a lot of data between Domino and the "outside world" (i.e. Linux and Unix systems) via XML, often either produced by Lotusscript agents which I access over HTTP, or else produced by custom made C-API programs which serve hand-crafted XML when invoked as CGI programs on a Domino HTTP task.

What baffles me, is how both the agents and the C programs are suddenly and silently "dropped" or killed by the HTTP task. I know, because the resulting XML is invalid on the client side and cannot be parsed. It is as though the server suddenly chopped off the connection.

"AJAX":http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AJAX is cool. Very cool. It just needs to be used carefully. No point in designing an application which sends each character half way over the world and back. For certain things, AJAX is very cool.
