Here's a contentious one... Does The Blue Danube date Oolite?

It dates Elite, IIRC my C=64 was playing it when using a docking computer.

So, rxke has access to the folder on my box.com, and I have no idea if I ever published the link, but here it is: https://app.box.com/shared/r10e0dqufr

But AFAIK Oolite is distributed as DMG for the Apple Mac. How does that work? Is that build getting signed? As far as I can tell, no, it is not signed. Requiring code signatures for every app out there would seem rather draconian to me, even for Apple. Maybe it is only some app types (Java apps inc...

$1015? WTF? Madness!

Indeed! For sure no sniping attempt from me at this level anymore

Damn my old eyes! I keep reading this as the Getaway Device!

I keep thinking of the Heechee saga from Frederik Pohl, one of the books is called „Gateway“. [i know this belongs to fiction…]

Of course, if the community acted as one, it would be possible to make a high bid,
but really don't want to feed the f@$%n cybersquatters...

Quite.

If it comes to 'us' making a bid then I'd chip in. I'm not committing to an amount but it'd be something.

How could we achieve pooling?

I did not place a bid yet but set an alarm for the current end of auction so I can. I don’t trust these domain bidding platforms enough to already now disclose interest by placing a bid early.

Now it is up for auction

Let’s wait until the last minute and try to snipe it. Hopefully the price doesn’t go up much until then…

Too early, got a message after placing the order that it couldn’t be registered. I’ll see if there is anything that can be done about it…

Done. It will take a few hours to activate, then I can point the DNS to an IP address. Please PM me which one to use @timer.

oolite.org is available for registration. I’m happy to do that and pay for the upkeep, unless there are objections or other ideas. I can get it for 0,70€ per month in the first year, then 1,50€/month, with DNS access and option to create subdomains.

We are almost ready to make this official. Pull request is up on github: https://github.com/OoliteProject/oolite/pull/407 Before the final merge, please test and ensure that the code in the above PR works and runs OK for you. This is basically for Lunux (and maybe Mac? anyone?) users, as testing on...
