		<outline text="Outage update. Our Linux server appears to be infected with a &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.redhat.com/support/alerts/ramen_worm.html&quot;&gt;worm&lt;/a&gt;. Until we completely back it up to a new server (installed yesterday) the outages will continue. At that point we'll have an extra static server at Exodus. Update at 5:15PM. The backup is complete. At 7PM there will be a planned outage on the static server, as we try to nuke the worm. If it works, everything should be back up by 8PM. If not, we go to plan B, and remap DNS to point to the new server. That will take as long as it takes for the DNS changes to percolate. " created="Tue, 30 Apr 2002 18:18:53 GMT"/>

They merged with Allaire. Both companies have BigCo's on the brain. Here's an &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.itwriting.com/mxinterview2.php&quot;&gt;interview&lt;/a&gt; with Jeremy Allaire. And a quote. &quot;What we've found though is that roughly 75% of web applications are built by scripting level developers.&quot; Personally, I think a lot of them use non-Microsoft and non-IBM tools and environments. I'd like to see them pitch their capabilities to all developers. Later he says that they've been working privately with Microsoft on interop. This is what I mean by having BigCo's on the brain. When we've tried to work with either Macromedia or Allaire they tell us about their plans to work with the Bigs. They say it nicely, but it's so frustrating. This bugs me bigtime. &quot;;-&gt;&quot;" created="Tue, 30 Apr 2002 18:55:52 GMT"/>

		<outline text="&lt;a href=&quot;http://jrobb.userland.com/2002/04/30.html#a1645&quot;&gt;John Robb&lt;/a&gt;: &quot;Radio is a fully decentralized system.  Even better, it provides you with a complete back-up of your weblog on your desktop and the ability to add to your weblog while disconnected.  Given that it is decentralized, you can opt to self-host your weblog at your ISP or on your corporate Intranet in under a minute.&quot; I posted this to correct some incorrect information that's floating around. We worked really hard for a couple of years to build a completely decentralized system. It takes a few minutes to post an incorrect analysis of the product, and then that floats around out there, and hurts our business. Play fair. Our product isn't perfect, for sure, but don't ding us for not doing things the product does do." created="Tue, 30 Apr 2002 15:41:40 GMT"/>

Here's a &lt;a href=&quot;http://radio.weblogs.com/0001015/images/2002/04/30/ftpprefs.gif&quot;&gt;screen shot&lt;/a&gt; of the FTP prefs page in Radio. Just click on the checkbox, enter your information, and it upstreams where ever you want. Also a little-known fact, you can serve from the machine you author on. If you're running Radio, try clicking on &lt;a href=&quot;http://127.0.0.1:5335/index.html&quot;&gt;this link&lt;/a&gt;. Navigate through the calendar. It works. For a low traffic site, or a site on an Intranet behind a firewall, you might even want to use it this way. Radio has a lot of power that we don't push, be careful when you say it can't do something, because there's a pretty good chance it can. &quot;;-&gt;&quot;" created="Tue, 30 Apr 2002 16:34:52 GMT"/>
