 | | Proposal of Inter-Starship News Service —Dan Mattia

| | | | | (...) Sounds intriguing. I like the idea, but who's gonna run it? Who's gonna provide the web space? Are we going to archive everything, or only make current "stories" available? Is there popular support for the idea? All these questions and more, (...) (20 years ago, 9-Jan-04, to lugnet.gaming.starship, FTX)

I will provide the webspace, even though Jeff Shaw has said so also, but I have 300MB left on my account; surely we won't use that much. Maybe JHK can help me code a PHP (...)

| | | | | (...) Emailed to me by Jeff Shaw Please post my response to .starship....Thanks. 1: I have banner free web space available. I could also set up a bulletin board for it. I personally can't do news reporting, but will welcome others to do the work and (...) (20 years ago, 9-Jan-04, to lugnet.gaming.starship, FTX)

| | | | | | (...) I have my own domain as well, with enough space (more than enough, actually). The only thing I can't do is make a forum, as the free one I use (PHP, but you need MYSQL) uses MYSQL, but I only have 1 allowed database, which is in use. If you (...)

| | | | | | (...) I like the general idea here, and I think something that just allows simple message posts is fine. A few ideas to add to the list: 1. Perhaps posting should require a password so that only official reporters (i.e. SMs) can post news messages (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jan-04, to lugnet.gaming.starship, FTX)

How is this different from what we can already post here or on the old board, or on the various boards associated with the various sectors? And posting our own (...)

Life is unpredicatble. Eventually, the news site would become automatic (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jan-04, to lugnet.gaming.starship, FTX)
