So I’m in San Francisco at the WordPress Community geek-fest that is WordCamp.
It’s kinda interesting – the usual [x]camp format; the usual 80/20 mix of hackers and non-hackers; the lack of power outlets…
There are a lot of people here who are using WordPress and want more – there is certainly a wave of demand that could see the whole community become a lot stronger.
Spent time in a session this morning on ‘Helping out WordPress’ – the number 1 request is ‘help with support’. I’ll get with a few people and see what can really be done.
After working with Ximian for three years – I’m really wary of reliance on the community; I know it’s active; but without clout nothing moves.
Oh – and I gave out a stack of openSUSE 10.1 DVDs – as well as the link to the running WordPress on openSUSE article that I threw together. I was branded a dreadful person from corporate land for that. The folks at WordCamp who got the openSUSE DVDs were happy though.

As promised here is the ‘HOW-TO’ for running WordPress on openSUSE.
This is a simple three step process:
– install and configure openSUSE
– configure apache and mysql
– install WordPress

I’m writing a wiki article on installing WordPress on openSUSE.
The aim is to have this done this week in time for WordCamp.

WordPress 2.0.4 is now out; it’s got a hefty security fix in it – so strongly recommended.

Interesting update.
Novell’s PR agency are using del.icio.us to track press for the release of SUSE Linux Enterprise 10.
The link is here http://del.icio.us/SHIFT.Communications.Novell.SUSELinuxEnterprise10

CoverBuddy looks really cool for the Mac iTunes users out there.
Just waiting for a Windows version.

July looks like the worst month so far for spam. So far – with about a week to go:
Spam per month (all years together - in development: display only for current year)
Total in January: Ham: 924 Spam: 1666
Total in February: Ham: 1454 Spam: 1836
Total in March: Ham: 1843 Spam: 2474
Total in April: Ham: 1812 Spam: 2965
Total in May: Ham: 4549 Spam: 3269
Total in June: Ham: 2010 Spam: 5628
Total in July: Ham: 1559 Spam: 8595
That shows almost a 100% jump in spam in July. Admittedly – I did turn on bayesian filtering in May (lots of bad filtering as you can see) – but the number of spam is just climbing every month.
Spam filtering via SpamAssassin.
