fighting for TYPO free code

Whoami

My name is Michiel Roos. I currently work for MaxServ in Holland. I like tech stuff like Linux, TYPO3, Gumstix and Roombas but I also like to dig in the dirt and try to grow veggies and other things. Some of you may know me as author of nc_staticfilecache and maintainder of the DAM project.

But why?

Well . . . I like code without typo's. It just runs better ;-)

TYPO3 mass upgrade script

Wed, 21 Jan 2009

Yesterday some updates came out for TYPO3. These updates fixed certain issues and we needed to update all of our excellent shared hosting environments.

We already have a script (which is more elaborate now) that checks all our TYPO3 installations and sends the sysadmins a nice report about its findings. We use part of that report (list of paths to Document Roots). . .

Create a 'drop shadow' folder action

Tue, 13 Jan 2009

Back in the day I worked for an advertising company and had a desk in the studio where all the shiny Macs lived. They had all these cool Adobe programs that could do amazing things for you when hooked to 'folder actions'.

Skype chat in Adium

Mon, 12 Jan 2009

When I started using more than one messenging program because client X used it, my screen got more and more cluttered with tiny windows. When I found Adium, I was able to reduce those many windows into one.

Until Skype came . . .

TYPO3 extension development book

Thu, 8 Jan 2009

Are you interested in TYPO3 extension programming? This is the first book on the subject. It is packed with the information you need. It's a good thing that there is finally a book about extension development for TYPO3. The newsgroups are always full of people asking how to do 'this' or 'that' when developing an extension. This book is an excellent starting point for an aspiring TYPO3 extension developer.
