Yay me!

I'm beginning to feel that I'm on top of this whole fsking worldcon website project. I have, if not mastered http, html, javascript, CSS1-2, cgi, perl and dtd, and least gotten to the point that they are familiar and I have a good idea of what it is I'm doing.

I also managed (with more than a little difficulty) to summon up the courage to phone up the people at mci and ask why my scripts weren't running. Not only did I manage to get a coherent and reasonable answer, but I was given a propper developers account and everything, so that I have offical people to talk to if something goes wrong.

So, 98% of the code is written. Everything, in fact, except for the final crucial last step of actually producing the output that is the whole reason behind this project. I have one day left before we go live and, I figure, about 1/2 days work left.

I actually feel like I'm on top of things. Come the weekend though, I'm gonna wanna REST.

Because I am Brave

or at least very stupid, I will once again post that everything is going swimmingly with the website. Yesterday when I posted that, it caused me to get nasty e-mail from two different sources which kept me up half the night unable to sleep, and resulted in me being alseep this afternoon when I needed to be awake, and it is still the most likely explanation that my new cgi-bin files STILL have not been uploaded to the website after two days.
