My bad. But the blog is back up under its normal theme–however, WordPress 2.1 is now in the wild and we will hopefully be merging to that soon enough once K2, the rawking theme by Michael Heilemann, gets updated to boot.

UPDATE:: OK turns out that the nice dated+named permalink structure doesn’t work, so I’ve reverted to the default structure for now.

UPDATE #2:: K2 0.95 is out.

It would be, if I could ftp into the server from off-campus. But for some reason that’s not working. I’ll get it fully running tomorrow morning.

Media no longer says ‘In Progress’ and I included a link to our YouTube video page there, of which I’ll promise to finally get some of the full games up in the next couple of weeks.

The Contact page — actually, I didn’t update that page at all. Sorry.

Team Info includes the new 06/07 Northern Bites members + a few formatting updates.

Those who I just invited tonight: start using it. I think it’ll be a good way to stay in touch over break and keep brainstorming. If you don’t want to use the ‘to-do’ lists, that’s fine. But at least check in and check the messages.

Yes, this means that the blog, and svn, trac, etc.

Just plug an ethernet cord in as a temporary measure.

I put this note in the blog to get Jeremy to put his thanksgiving laziness behind him and fix this bug.

UPDATE:: though Jeremy and I spent an hour debugging this, we later found this email from IT:

From: it@bowdoin.edu
To: all_students@list.bowdoin.edu
Date: Tue, 28 Nov 2006 18:33:28 -0500
Subject: wireless connectivity issue
We are currently experiencing problems with the wireless network and logging into Bowdoin web services (Blackboard). Until this is resolved please connect to the network using an Ethernet cable.

Thank you,

Information Technology

Let me know if anyone gets another saying that it’s working now. That would be useful.

UPDATE::Problem seems to be fixed in the lab. Anyone else having issues?

Analytics will allow us to figure who and where you robotics fiends come from and organize it in the typical Google-awesomeness way.
