poit-0.1 Released

2009-09-30 (Wednesday)

Just released version 0.1 of poit.

There is documentation on how to set up the server itself, but not on how to set up an OpenID identity to use said server.  I plan to write a more complete HOWTO on the latter in the coming days.

Update on poit-0.1

2009-09-23 (Wednesday)

I had originally planned to make the version 0.1 release of poit a couple weeks ago, but good weather has conspired to keep me away from the computer and on my bike. Good times were had.

Due to the need for recovery then injury, I have been home more than usual in the last few days, and have managed to put in some solid work on the project.  The UI is mostly finalized, consumer-specific quirks have been worked out, and, code wise, it is ready for 0.1.

Well, at least according to my original plan.

One thing that is still lacking is per-consumer configuration, which means poit currently authenticates to any and all consumers if there is still a valid session when asked to operate in immediate mode.  Although not particularly dangerous, this is not going to stay the default, and it feels irresponsible to leave it as such until 0.2.

So, a little more waiting until I get this sorted out.

In the meantime, if you’re OK with the above mentioned policy, grab the source from git and give it a go.

Gear Jammer to Upper Cut to Lower Snake.

(Yes, I walked the bit of uphill in Upper Cut. Meh.)
