He will be coming into our office once a week and beeing available as a coach and discussion partner for our partially really young, highly talented guys… I’m really positive about this and hope that both partys will be [...]

Yoosic is dead. Or not?

just repaired some minor issues this morning on yoosic.com. And in the next days I will be inserting a new flash player for replacing our current mp3-stream solution.

Lighttpd 1.5 and Symfony 1.0.8

finally just solved big problems I had with symfony – to get it running on lighttpd 1.5 with fcgi-sockets. The resulting lighttpd settings are a pure pain in the … – If you have a better solution for this, let me know. I’m pretty unhappy with these kind of hacks… $HTTP["host"] == “###TypeYourUrlHere###” { var.site-root [...]
