This page will contain ideas / things I would like to do (that relate to this site). Consider it a notes page and a tasks page. Projects:

• SerialTracker -- software intended to help keep track of serial / code key information in a SQLite database. It's currently *functional* but not pretty
  • Need to add ability to print
  • Need to clean up code
  • Much later: Add multi-db support (such as MySQL and MSSQL Express)
• Bloging program for WM5/6 (aka mBlog)
  • I want something that can speak XMLRPC that is free and doesn't suck.
  • Should be simple, as in all it should want is a subject and a body -- anything else should be handled by the primary interface on the web.
• SQLDiff / SqlSchema Export
• AmxModX - Report Abuse
• Dd-GUI
• MDE
• Quizzer
  • Imports an XML file for questions and related answers.
  • An example question would be:
    • What port does HTTP listen on?
      • 80, 81, 25, 22, 10, 21
  • Each port would have a value to it, with 80, of course, being HTTP. Questions would be generated dynamcially so, for example, 25 would be associated with SMTP. The questions format might be: What port does $PORT_DISPLAY_NAME listen on? and the answers would be chosen from $PORT_VALUE
  • A reverse question might be: What services is port $PORT_VALUE and the answer would be $PORT_DISPLAY_NAME.
  • The qa list would ahve romanian, spanish, networking, and some other things that I'm currently interested in.
  • Be released under BSD license so other people could use it for their studying purposes.
• KBA (Keyboard Assignment)
  • Be capable of importing HL1 keyboard settings and displaying on the screen.
  • I want something that looks close to a keyboard on screen so you can see, at a glance, what keys do what and what are available for new commands.
  • Needs to be able to update them and re-save.
  • Saving should have the option of overwriting the orginal file or using the userdefiend file (preferred, since it doesn't get overwritten on updates).
• CRM.
  • Being the guy who tends to fix neighbors computers, would be nice to have a small crm software to help me keep track of everything. A common thing is people forget to keep serial numbers, so it would need to store computer info under their account. That area might be called triage, where you go and gather information about them in general.
  • Wold be nice to have pictures to, to help with calls and help me remember what I'm dealing with.

Websites:

• OpenBSD-Wiki
  • Update articles to latest version.
  • Develop a better method of aging articles.
  • Update software.
• Etherpunk.com/Wiki
  • Append some info on articles, such as the reset SQL identities
  • Clean up the theme, make it similar to this.
  • Update software.

Source Control:

• Clean up my SVN repo.
  • Testing - Used for testing general idea. For example, the speed tests I did fro Linq vs SubSonic versus datareaders.
  • Development - Used for actual projects.
  • Alpha - Projects that people can use
  • Production -- yeah, like anything will ever end up here ;-)
