Because of XMLHttpRequest restrictions in FireFox, you need to install this program on your webserver. Note that raccxml could have been written by anyone and installed anywhere -- it doesn't need anything installed on ISCA's server. text/html 2009-09-17T21:26:24-05:00 http://dev.iscabbs.com/doku.php?id=lunenburg&rev=1253240784&do=diff Lunenburg has been an ISCABBS user since 1993.

It can be found on CPAN, though the module on CPAN is currently somewhat out of date. text/html 2009-09-16T14:31:34-05:00 http://dev.iscabbs.com/doku.php?id=raccdoc_protocol_documentation&rev=1253129494&do=diff Raccoon Message Server The Raccoon message server is responsible for maintaining information about a collection of "topics." Each topic consists of "notes," which are each documents in the RFC822 format. In general, a Raccoon server is used for a specific administrative domain, where particular standards and guidelines are enforced.A Raccoon server may also be used to host the Jalot system. Within Jalot, threaded topics are used as task lists, and threads within a topic are used as tasks.Command… text/html 2009-09-18T15:42:44-05:00 http://dev.iscabbs.com/doku.php?id=rss_feeds&rev=1253306564&do=diff The ISCABBS RSS feeds are located at <http://rss.iscabbs.com/> They are generated by a Ruby/Sinatra application named RaccFeeds, whose source code can be found at <http://github.com/minter/raccfeeds/> The code consists of a backend script, run via cron, that polls both the database of stored posts and the live BBS, reconciling them (posts that have been removed from the BBS are marked as “deleted” in the database, new posts on the BBS are added to the database). text/html 2009-09-17T21:21:52-05:00 http://dev.iscabbs.com/doku.php?id=ruby&rev=1253240512&do=diff The Ruby API was written by Lunenburg and is maintained as a Ruby Gem.
