After a way too long time I finaly went to Hamburg for a complete server update! I worked a lot on the backend the past months, we now have a decent content management system (CMS) to keep our projects up to date! Everyone should now be able to support us also with just a minimal HTML knowledge! (you are very welcome to contribute, simply send an email to ktk@netlabs.org :-)

Beside the HTML update I completely cleaned up the server, installed loads of new deamons and wrote a bunch of REXX sccripts to clean up logs and so on. Wow it's nice to work on the machine now :-))

Beside this I successfuly finished my exams (yeah!), now I'm writing my diploma work an in January 2003 I'm a free man with plenty of ideas for netlabs.org -> you will get much more in the near future, I promise!

You are welcome to browse the projects, the navigation is somewhat different and the project detail pages look different as well. Odin application database is better integrated in the new design now, but I need some days to finish the wizzard as well to allow uploads.
Plenty of other changes are planned (including a rebranding to netlabs.org btw) but I'm still too busy to finish it right now so it will change within the next months, I promise!

Thanks a lot to Arne Blankerts for having a nice time in Hamburg and for sure to n@twork for hosting netlabs.org on a excellent backbone!!

Enjoy!

After my exams I now finaly find the time to go to Hamburg to reinstall the netlabs.org server (yeah! :-)
Because of this netlabs.org will be down for probably two days: 26. and 27.9.
This means no http, no ftp, no mail, no cvs, no nothing... I will try to keep the downtime for mail and cvs as short as possible but web won't be online that fast because I have to finish some small parts in the new pages.
After the update the server should be more reliable than it is now and: the new pages will finaly be online. It's much easier to update projects in the new layout so I think people will definitely like it.!
There will also be some new projects after the update and even more projects within the next few month!
Thanks for your understanding
