Kudos.koha.org up and running!
Hello All, The KUDOS Koha Users and Developers Group website is up and running at http://kudos.koha.org/ . Thanks to Josh for the help setting it up. Please let me know if you have any suggestions / criticisms / complaints / what-have-you. There's not much content at the moment, so suggestions are very welcome. Let me know if it seems slow or anything like that, the servers is a virtual machine, so I can bump up the RAM if it gets a bit sluggish. If everything seems kosher, I'll post something up on the Koha and KUDOS mailing lists.

My only query is the byline " The Official Koha Users & Developers Group! " Kudos is a worldwide users group?? And is it the only users and developers group? What is kohala then?

My only query is the byline
" The Official Koha Users & Developers Group! "
Agreed. I think it's important not to claim anything official about it. That suggests that if someone started another group it wouldn't be "endorsed by the Koha Project." -- Owen -- Web Developer Athens County Public Libraries http://www.myacpl.org _______________________________________________ Koha-devel mailing list Koha-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/koha-devel

I also question the tagline. I hope that KUDOS will play an active and important role in the Koha project, but there is no need to imply exclusivity.

I've changed the byline to 'A US-Based Koha Users & Developers Group!', I hope this is a more agreeable phrasing. I think it shows not only that this is a US-centric group, but that it is not necessarily the only Koha group around. Any thoughts?

Indeed, KUDOS was always intended to be a US-specific group because (I feel like a broken record here-- so sorry about that) that's what the Koha developers and creators said they wanted at the KohaCon in France-- for each region or continent to have their own user group and no 'worldwide' one. All my conversations with John Brice have always indicated to me that that was his assumption as well (US -- or at least North American-- specific) So I agree with the new tagline you suggest above.
Any thoughts?

I have assumed from the beginning that KUDOS was to be US-centric. John has said so before. From the beginning I didn't really like the byline I had used, that's why I've been asking for input. Let me know if you have any other suggestions for changes or content. FYI, the server that is hosting the site seems to be down. I'll be fixing that in the morning.

Was it? I thought the initial plan was to have a US-based worldwide organisation and a local organisation in France (known as Koha-F at the time). 7 March 2006 seems a good summary, a few months before KohaCon Paris, if anyone wants to read the IRC logs, or there's http://www.nabble.com/Koha-Foundation-td3448780.html generated from the email lists around the same time. It's now 2009, KohaLA has been formed in France for more than a year (and soon its treasurer may tell me how I can pay my membership fee from the UK ;-) ), but we don't appear to be much closer to having anything in the US, let alone the worldwide hub organisation. I remain of the belief that we need to organise internationally to make it harder for people to divide and conquer our Koha community. We could still maybe have regional chapters, but forming and running KohaLA, KUDOS, KSF, TTLLP (yes, we are open to new members, but are developer-only and not Koha-specific, so it's not automatic and we probably have to exist anyway for other reasons) and other distinct groups in each area is wasting our supporters' time and money in needless administration. I suggest that KohaLA is given money to become the internationalised hub because it exists and can represent all sectors. However, this is a minority view for reasons I don't fully understand.

www.koha-fr.org is the main entry for french community.

This has been mentioned by many. I actually questioned the 'slogan' myself. I had asked Josh about it earlier but we were working on getting the DNS change made and forgot about it.
I was thinking maybe 'The Official US-Based Koha Users & Developers Group' or something else to indicate that this is a US-centric Koha Users & Developers Group. I thought that we could also have othercountry.kudos.koha.org, but I imagine that non-english speaking Koha'ers would prefer to come up with an acronym in his or her native language.
Also, does KohaLA have a website to link to?
www.koha-fr.org is the main entry for french community. But we have nothing against using french.koha.org (maybe ".kudos." is useless, as frenchies won't remember & understand what it means) + I prefer "french" to "france", as the french doc, for example is useful for other french-speaking countries ;-)

I'm not sure why that's happening for you, but this is indeed a separate website. I'm not seeing such a redirect.

Hi Galen, It is happening to me too. You may want to try from somewhere else? Try from a different machine? Maybe DNS hasn't caught up with the rest of the world yet? Hmmm, wget is showing a "302" temporary redirect response like MJ noted. $ wget http://kudos.koha.org/ --2009-01-26 19:16:38-- http://kudos.koha.org/ Resolving kudos.koha.org... 66.249.19.54 Connecting to kudos.koha.org|66.249.19.54|:80... connected.

I did some more checking and this is indeed a DNS propagation problem, although as it happens none of the hosts available to me are resolving to the bad address. The correct address of kudos.koha.org is 162.39.22.233; if DNS has not caught up in a couple hours, please let me know.

I think the koha.org dns entries should be changed so that all unused subdomains simply redirect to koha.org. That's how I have kylehall.info set up. If I go to blah.kylehall.info, I just get the same thing as www.kylehall.info.

Please let me know if you have any suggestions / criticisms / complaints / what-have-you. There's not much content at the moment, so suggestions are very welcome.

If everything seems kosher, I'll post something up on the Koha and KUDOS mailing lists.

I don't see a redirect either - as for content I think you should add the minutes that I sent to the KUDOS list for the meeting we had here at ALA Midwinter and links to all of the other KUDOS information sources (mailing list, facebook, etc). I tried to subscribe to the RSS but it said there was no feed - so that also needs to be resolved. --- Nicole C.
