Create a local "Libre Planet" group for software freedom advocacy

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi everyone After SFD in Montreal I've created a new Libre Planet group to continue gathering and encouraging local activists and free technology enthusiasts: http://libreplanet.org/wiki/Group:LibrePlanet_Quebec I encourage all SFD teams to start similar groups locally: http://libreplanet.org/wiki/Form:Group We are very lucky to have active local communities already, so this is mostly serving as an umbrella communication hub, as well as a place where active FSF members that live in the area can organize and represent our goals.

I have tried copying it into Wiki, but the Wiki keeps breaking as before. I cant get the hang of / don't like this Wiki in GUI mode except for trivial changes, so I'm using it in Source mode, as I read HTML better :-) One reason I put the data here temporarily http://www.berklix.org/sfd/2011_netherlands.html was to enable me to run tidy -i -m to ensure perfect HTML (no missing " in href etc), before I then pasted the HTML. The wiki needs to be fixed. "Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@localhost" shows it is mis-configured.

I know the feeling on rare errors :-) I suggest take a quick look for strings localhost & perhaps 127.0.0.1 in the wiki & apache configs, as localhost should not be leaking out, You may not find the error that was stoping me, but you'll probably find something [else] :-) Background info: my end was under heavy net traffic thus slow response. > On 10/11/2011 03:58 PM, Julian H.

ouch! We once in a while have those 500 errors while trying to save wiki pages and I can't find any trace or anything in the logs. The only solutions so far have been to either come back the next day and it would 'just work', or ask someone to insert content for you. As it hasn't been bad enough nothing further has been done to investigate. Fred On 10/11/2011 03:58 PM, Julian H. Stacey wrote: > cc'd webmaster(a)wiki.softwarefreedomday.org > >> That's cool!
