LP 70+ projector with wireless connection. | Nice small "relatively" quiet projector. Nice feature is the cable has a USB connector so that the projector remote can control the slide show on the computer. The wireless adapter is questionable. Doesn't seem to be able to support 802.11b/g computers, has a lower resolution image, and doesn't seem to be able to be configured to maintain the network connection and the projector connection simultaneously. Which makes demoing a Wiki page in real time impossible. This needs verification from InFoucs? tech support however, before we send the wireless adapter back. | ||||||

Began to work with volunteers to add an exception list capability to a Wiki for commonly used CamelCase terms that are not intended to be links, e.g. MacOS, WebDAV, WxWidgets. The current method requires planing a as a prefix in every instance. Grant Bowmon is helping investigate the potential use of an existing alias plugin to create the global exception list. | ||||||

Two imap4 clients polling from the main thread in to a Reactor running in a separate thread 2. Many (50 or more) imap4 clients examining and downloading messages from a an imap server. Each client will run in a dedicted thread and call Twisted Reactor loop running in its own thread. 3.
