On the "JavaScript Scripting Resources" page ( http://mozilla.org/js/scripting/ ) on the mozilla.org site, there's still a link to Dan Steinman's DynAPI 1 (DynDuo). We should probably have DynAPI's SourceForge link on such pages, to generate more traffic. There's an email address at the bottom of this particular page for a Robert Ginda <rginda [at] netscape (dot) com>. Do we have an "official contact" to handle such "PR" type stuff? I thought of shooting off a quick email but realized I may not speak for the entire group, if people think it's a good idea. Also, as an entity, it may be confusing to others unless there's a single person the outside can contact regarding these matters. Leif |

Hi mate! I think i get your point... Maybee we can discuss sutch matters in the project for the new dynAPI system aswell? On how to link or sutch and who shall be responsible? I think all can be responsible but, it might be good to talk about it first as you think(?) But those kinds of requests maybee should be possible for everyone to make. Besides that... I think for the whole we should only link to the "website" and not the sf site when we have the new site up. Regards Daniel -----Original Message----- From: dyn...@li...

A quick WHOIS on netsol.com says that dynapi.com is registered to Dan Steinman. Dan, what do you think about your dynapi.com domain for this? What do the rest of you think about dynapi.com?

Doing a comprehensive check (DNS, web, mail), Also checked dynapi.net and dynapi.org, and Dan Steinman has both of those also. All three domains are using DynDNS for their DNS, so they would need to be updated (i.e. to a static dns within DynDNS) or changed to a different DNS provider. dynapi.org and dynapi.net both point to the same RCN cable account while dynapi.com doesn't have an IP. dynapi.com, .net, and .org all don't hit a standard web server (i.e. port 80.) This would need changing to hit the webservers. www.dynapi.org redirects to http://dynapi.sourceforge.net/dynapi/, www.dynapi.net redirects to dynapi.net:82. These would need to point to the new IP. dynapi.net has an MX record pointing to dynapi.net with a mail server listening, while dynapi.com and dynapi.org have no MX records. If we're going to set up mail capabilities (accounts or simply forwards) on a new server, MX records would also have to be added/updated. As far as the advertisement aspect goes, I'd volunteer as the primary contact, and if anyone has suggestions or instructions about where to go, who to contact, how to make submissions to other places, I'd be able to do that to help spread the word of the project. Would probably want to get some of that started a little before the release of the new site and the post-beta of the DynAPI.

OK, so if Dan has any input soon or if we could contact him, we ask him if he's willing to point his DNS at our IPs? Prefer .com, .org, or .net? Like I said, I would be willing to put up the web space, unless someone else has a better deal (static IP with in-house server and OC3 maybe?). As for PR, you're right Leif. We should compile a comprehensive list for release all at once, slightly before launch. Christopher D. Kissinger >>> -----Original Message----- >>> From: dyn...@li...

OK, I get the point. The idea is to just redo the SF site. I thought it would help PR if we had dynapi.com or somesuch domain as the "public access" or slick "final release" site and concentrate on the SF site as dev site.

Maybe it would be simpler to stay focussed on the site redesign (which isn't done yet) before switching ISPs. This way we don't have to juggle two major changes at once. But I wouldn't dismiss or devalue the discussion about other hosting options if that would be agreeable and beneficial to the group. Always nice to have options. One point that really sticks out though, we really should have the DNS cleaned up so that they all point to the new (primary?) site, wether it's on SF or elsewhere. Dan Steinman is the inventor and reinventor of the DynAPI, has been the cornerstone since its inception. But where has he been lately? He doesn't post, so I don't know if he reads or cares about the project or is just to darn busy with all the other things that come up in life. Anyways, the point I'm trying to make, is this project also has a lot of new talent who have put a lot of work into this DynAPI 3.x, so it's maybe not just Dan's private little project anymore. Again, I hate to sound like I'm trying to take something away (i.e. pry the DNS out of his hands), but maybe more than one person (some voted DNS group) could have access to the DNS stuff so it could be more easily changed in the future (i.e. not having to wait if he's on vacation, if other mail is taking priority, etc.). And not just one person controlling it who could shoot down any plans to change simply by saying "no, it's mine and I don't want to do it, or I'm too busy to bother right now". That's my only concern.

I spend more money on pizza each year than the cost to register a domain which is $25-35. :D Domains are cheap, 2-3 large pizzas with 3 toppings, that's like $2-3/month, maybe like 15-30 minutes of work (after taxes). I could always shell out the money upfront and we put some "Donate money via PayPal" link onsite (or just send a URL to the list), and remove it if/when the requisite funds are reached, or leave the funds in the PayPal account for use on future costs. The only other cost of operation would be hosting, but the point is probably moot as we're staying put at SF I think. But if we all chip in, say 5 of us, it's only $7 each per year. Hopefully not breaking anyone's bank. FYI I'm not currently employed either and still don't consider $25-35 / year anything to fuss over.
