Just btw., may I distract you to (URL) I have put another issue up for discussion? Given your creativity here I am confident that you have some constructive views on that subject as well. Thanks, Jerry (16 years ago, 27-Aug-08, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) I agree with you here, I have looked into the abyss of madness called MySpace & have gone crazy myself! What I meant to say was "control over JUST the profile page". Agreed, there is a nice established look with LUGNET, that it would be nice (...) (16 years ago, 25-Aug-08, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) Actually, some work on the user profiles is also very high on my wish (and ToDo) list. I'm quite an active networker, too, and on all these "modern" platforms you find - among all that clutter - some desirable features that might be worthwhile (...)

(...) I know it's bad form to reply to your own post... but another idea would be a updated user profile... I have a web-site, a blog, I'm on Facebook, Flickr, LinkedIn, Picasa, Twitter, Plurk, FriendFeed, AIM, Y!M, gTalk, etc. It would be nice to (...) (16 years ago, 25-Aug-08, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) As I said in another post, I think converting FTX to HTML on the back-end would be a "better use of your time" type of solution, considering how diverse your audience is. (...)

(...) That's a really good idea, Michael. There is already an internal function for rendering FTX as HTML, which could be reused for this. It might be a good idea to filter out any JS injection attempts in URLs, which would benefit the web-based (...) (16 years ago, 25-Aug-08, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) The easiest solution would be to convert FTX in NNTP message files into HTML; most NNTP browsers understand embedded HTML. And then rewrite the web-posting modules to convert FTX to "safe" HTML (ie. rejecting JavaScript injection or other (...) (16 years ago, 25-Aug-08, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) Thanks for your suggestions (all of you) - actually an FTX-capable news reader might be something we'd need an idea of the actual demand for.

(...) I've solved the read vs. unread issue by reading LUGNET via RSS & Google reader. There's not enough traffic on LUGNET to prevent me from reading it via RSS now (the traffic has dramatically dropped since Peeron introduced the RSS feed). And I (...)

(...) One solution would be an FTX enabled news reader. There is no reason why a news reader could not process the FTX. Another thing a customized Lugnet newsreader could do is post via the web interface. I don't think it would be too tricky to get (...) (16 years ago, 25-Aug-08, to lugnet.admin.general)
