I would appreciate it if you could remove my javascript Tag Cloud from your website. I do not want in any way to be associated with yourself, your office or your policies.

At the MySource Matrix international user conference, currently underway in Hobart Australia, it was announced that MySource Mini will be going GPL with a public SVN repository. It was also announced that the same will be available for the regular MySource Matrix CMS. Other main news from the conference is that there is now available a free download of MySource Mini as a VM image.

Recently, I was asked to participate in the development of the MySource Matrix Community Server. Nic Hubbard, Duncan Robertson and myself are just starting to work on the content for the site, and should be ready to go in the upcoming months.

Nic Hubbard recently tagged me on his blog, and since rules are rules here is my reply. Seven things you may not know about me.

Today the E-Commerce model was released under the GPL version of 3.20.0. Other modules such as Bulkmail, Calendar and Search were also included from the SSV version and distributed under the GPL. This is an important release for GPL users, as we now have the ability to create more dynamic websites using this new release. I have been testing 3.20.0 RC1 for about a week now, and I am quite pleased with it. The 3.20.0 stable release is even better with more bug fixes and features added.

Finally after much drama of upgrading from Ubuntu Dapper to Edgy, then to Feisty, and then to Gutsy. I now have a working MySource Matrix 3.18.0 installation running on php5.

Creating one of these can be a little tricky in MySource Matrix, especially the GPL version (no lovely search module here). Since we can't use php code in our pages, we have to use javascript to do the hard work for us.

This how to is written specifically for Ubuntu Dapper, however the instructions should still work with Edgy, Feisty and Gutsy. It has instructions on how to install and configure php, pear, apache and postgres specifically for MySource Matrix 3.14.4
