[Downtown Dharma Listserve] Virtual meditation group

Hi, We're starting a small, new meditation group, and wanted to invite folks to join us. Meditating in a group is great, but it's more convenient to do from our homes (no travel time, etc). We'll be using a virtual sangha format, with meditations held over skype once per week. Send me an email off-list if you're interested.

Re: [dcphp-dev] WordPress Calypso

Jason, Another downside I can see of having it all hosted by WP is content ownership. There are certainly use cases where you would want full ownership of your content and not being handled by a 3rd party.

Re: [dcphp-dev] WordPress Calypso

This seems right to me, though I don't think it's necessarily going to not have an impact on the .org product. One of the big features they're promoting for the new .com is improved ability to manage all your self-hosted .org sites through the .com interface. I could imagine a future where they continue in that direction and the self-hosted product just becomes a thinner and thinner presentation layer...

Probably also wanted some realtime socket communication. And PHP -- ReactPHP and Ratchet not withstanding -- isn't a great language / interpreter for that.

Re: [dcphp-dev] WordPress Calypso

One of the really attractive things about JS right now is the ability to build isomorphic apps, like calypso, that can run in the browser and on the desktop and on a server. It's a sign of things to come. PHP's real strength is on the server handling requests, there's just more overhead to doing this properly in node. We're in the process with our platform right now of creating a rich JS app that can run in browser, mobile, or...
