I was very pleased to receive an e-mail from hostgator today, in which they stated that they will be upgrading all servers to have MySQL 5 and PHP 5 installed by default! I hope this will send out a message to the other hosting firms, which would finally allow us to start using PHP5 in all our opensource projects.

The title may be a bit too harsh, but it still remains a funny sight! Using the latest anti-phishing, the google adsense page is being blocked by Internet Explorer 7. You are recommended not to continue - and perhaps to use live search instead, we all know it’s better anyway!

Since HostGator does not support changing the value of always_populate_raw_post_data in PHP to “1″, I had to find a work around. After spending an hour Googling my issue and it turning zero-dot-zero results I was forced into being creative.
Appearantly you can use the input wrappers to go around this setting. Perhaps you could find this useful in the future
<php
if(!$HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA){
$HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA = file_get_contents(’php://input’);
if(empty($HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA))
{
// die here
}
}

The time has come to rub your eyes in disbelief! ClanCommandCenter Clan Cms finally has a release available for download!
It may have taken a long time, but rest assured that it was well worth the wait. I’m sure it’s a common problem, when developing free and opensource software, that real life may halt you from working on it and thus creating delays.
Either way, glad to have the clan cms available for download. Happy downloading!

Although, to you foreigners, it may seem like there is not going to be a Belgium in the near future …
For a project of mine, I had to find a database that contained all cities of Belgium with their postal codes and GPS locations (longitude & latitude). Since I couldn’t find such a database (or I had to pay too f***ing much) I decided to create one myself.
Since I’m such a commie, I’ve decided to share this database with anyone that needs it! Please refer to this page to download the database. At this time it’s only available in Dutch. Maybe some day I’ll take the time to translate it into english. Maybe some cash would make me work faster? Send your donations to PayPal address: thomas@rdlt.com …
