Today at work I spent 8 hours hacking MediaWiki—draining. In the process, I finally set up CVS, learned a bit of python, figred out the finer points of the PDF implementation (PDFlib isn’t free, so in the hopes that I can roll some of these features back into the MediaWiki source, I’m trying this free one), etc. Working on a new feature now for the wiki so that users can add articles to a print queue, and then hit print, and it will generate a nicely formatted PDF for them with all their articles, sorted by what they want—FIFO, date, alphabetical, whatever. Manual reordering would be nice too.

The new KSCR site is going to be the best thing ever.

I was thinking, for KSCR’s summer emails, the slogan could be “Just like the Summer Trojan, we put this thing out whenever we damn well feel like it.” #
