Apollo 11 code for Drupal?
Anybody wants to take a stab at using some open source code from the Apollo 11 onboard computer in Drupal? http://googlecode.blogspot.com/2009/07/apollo-11-missions-40th-anniversary-o... 8-) -- Tomáš J. Fülöpp http://www.vacilando.org
PHP 3.0, No-Class, No-abstraction layers, No-template, No-full-admin-part, No little-need part. Horroble coding style, many difference module that writing many difference people in this style. Why you want see this garbig in appollo? 2009/7/21, Tomáš Fülöpp (vacilando.org) <tomi@vacilando.org>:

That a very brave anonymous message ;) Damien
Hm, I thought we required PHP 4.3.3 (and later 4.3.5) for recent Drupal versions. I can't even name a Drupal version off head that ran on PHP 3.0. Tell me more. On Tue, Jul 21, 2009 at 8:14 AM, listdevelopment listdevelopment<list.development@gmail.com> wrote:

I started programming on my first computer; a Tandy 1000 from Radio Shack. Assembly was so much easier on the 8088 processor. Ahh, the good ol' days. ~Rob On Tue, Jul 21, 2009 at 9:59 AM, Karoly Negyesi <karoly@negyesi.net> wrote:

I did a complete suite of educational programs with a cross platform function dispatcher, so that once the system was installed (on disk :) the data would run on Radio Shack Color Computer (6809) Commodore (6502) IBM XT with a version for Spectrum... Really cool. Somewhere I have the 5.25 disks for the Commodore !!! Victor Kane http://awebfactory.com.ar On Tue, Jul 21, 2009 at 5:31 PM, Aaron Winborn <winborn@advomatic.com>wrote:
Mine was either the Trash-80, or the Vic-20; I don't remember which came first. The TRS was at school, and the Commodore at home. The Vic-20 had 5K RAM, and I fondly remember when we got a 16K expander cartridge (along with the inevitable 'What will I do with all that memory?') The first thing I remember writing was a scrolling adventure, where I created an Olde English font pixel by pixel by hacking directly into its core memory. (I'm sure I wrote practice stuff before that, but this is what, 30 years ago?)
My father later gave me a CCP/M with a washing machine 8" floppy drive from his office; the computer may have been older than the others, but I really have no idea anymore. I wrote a text-based Star Wars game, complete with X-Wing fighters and light sabers using DataStar on that computer.

Thats not the point. I mean Apollo 11 code is not PHP..Drupal is....Apollo 11 code is nowhere related to a CMS...Drupal runs website, that code ran the whole goddam rocket...Thing is while the code is available, what sense does it make to use it in Drupal? And where exactly are we gonna use it? Correct me if I am wrong Sandip On Wed, Jul 22, 2009 at 3:19 AM, Victor Kane <victorkane@gmail.com> wrote:

This is by far my favorite Apollo drama: http://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/pao/History/monograph4/intro.htm The story is more bureaucratic/political but IMHO half of working on any big project (especially open source development) is understanding and navigating that terrain that so your technical arguments can get a fair hearing. andrew

I have a client (one of the galactic tourism companies, cant say which one) which is after some guidance code that they can use with a CCK field (i.e. they want to put moon coordinates in, then have the ship automatically fly there via rss). I told them that flying to the moon wasnt possible with Drupal (at least not on windows) so they have asked if i can build a module so they can use drupal not only inside the ship, but also on the internet. I believe there is a bounty of about $8m for the developer who gets drupal to interface with the mars lander (although i heard they went with joomla in the end - which is probably why it didnt last as long...). Basically, you have to get your ass-embler to mars, find the alien artifact, get the girl and kill the baddies. See you at the party Richter!

Thats not the point. I mean Apollo 11 code is not PHP..Drupal is....Apollo 11 code is nowhere related to a CMS...Drupal runs website, that code ran the whole goddam rocket...Thing is while the code is available, what sense does it make to use it in Drupal? And where exactly are we gonna use it? Correct me if I am wrong
I have a client (one of the galactic tourism companies, cant say which one) which is after some guidance code that they can use with a CCK field (i.e. they want to put moon coordinates in, then have the ship automatically fly there via rss). I told them that flying to the moon wasnt possible with Drupal (at least not on windows) so they have asked if i can build a module so they can use drupal not only inside the ship, but also on the internet.
I believe there is a bounty of about $8m for the developer who gets drupal to interface with the mars lander (although i heard they went with joomla in the end - which is probably why it didnt last as long...).
Basically, you have to get your ass-embler to mars, find the alien artifact, get the girl and kill the baddies. See you at the party Richter!

It got to the moon, didn't it? No-one's landed there since, have they?
Much better than the funky new Apollo 13 code.

Why would anyone want to use Apollo 11 code in Drupal? I really dont get it...

Anybody wants to take a stab at using some open source code from the Apollo 11 onboard computer in Drupal?
