Propagated new RadMdn image to CMS Macs 1,2, and 3. And stupid Macormedia Studio MX 2004 applications still do not launch, same symptoms as before.  Frustrating. Removed the Macromedia overlay from the configuration, which should have effectively uninstalled all of Studio, reinstalled from CD — no luck. Still think it is a boot record disk [...]

CAMP Shibboleth: Enabling Campus and Federated Single Sign-On, Day 1

Wesley Wright (Grand High Wizard of Blogsalot) @ 8:41 am

June 26–28, 2006
Wyndham Burlington, Burlington, Vermont
Unsure about what the Shibboleth System is about and how it can be used in production on your campus? Looking for a Web single sign-on package that can be used both for local applications and in federated environments?

Internet2’s Shibboleth is being deployed nationally and internationally to solve real-world problems associated with intra- and interinstitutional authentication and authorization. For Web-based access control, it leverages campus identity and access management infrastructures to authenticate individuals and then sends information about them to the resource site, enabling the resource provider to make an informed authorization decision.

Decided that "cluttering" the interface with an Enable Sounds Like checkbox was indeed a good idea, no authored code to do so, including suggestions when and when not to use it.

Downloaded, configured, and installed on my Mac

libjpeg
libpng
zlib
freetype
libgd
GD.pm

over and over agan, it seems.
But it was not for naught: I finaly got the Landscape Change Thumbnails/Zoom script to process all 12,000 files.
The Zoomify part was a bug in the ZoomifyBase.py code. There was a line
    tempImage = imageRow.resize((imageWidth/2, imageHeight/2), PIL.Image.ANTIALIAS)
well, if imageWidth or imageHeight was <=1, [...]
