Re: xpattern.net shut down?

hgtv > The lyrics go: Someone’s laughing, someone’s crying. Yeah, about sums it up.

wow, look at me… I really caused a poo-storm. Bert don’t you think you’re being a bit too dramatic here. I kinda said goodbye to xPat, disappointed, years ago when nothing happened. The ideas were pretty damn good, but no one had the time. No harm, no blame.

So do want me to re-up xPat or not? No sense in getting irritated about something when you’re actually being asked you what you’d like to happen.

Dale I was just reading the lyrics to the song, that’s all. As for xPattern, leave it closed, it’s one less web property I have to keep an eye on. As for no one having the time, well let me just leave it there.

Re: xpattern.net shut down?

The repository will still stay up, so that should be all anyone needs to may wish to continue the project. I may still as I need a hobby, and this one is inexpensive.

Why don’t you petition to join the core team? Get involved, start steering the boat towards the shore you’d like to land on.

As I said my interests are different, which makes me really bad fit — first of all. Not my place. My place is elsewhere in the tree.

Thanks mrdale. I was just curious.

(and given the inactivity, your decision is reasonable.)

Re: xpattern.net shut down?

I was checking links on my wiki when forum.xpattern.net redirected to this forum. Did a whois and Robert now owns xPattern.net, interesting.

Luckily I was able to catch the dropped domain for a rather moderate bid at a domainsquatter site.

Be forewarned Robert, being associated with xPattern may make you persona non grata.
