.oO(darrel) Well, summer is here in the northern hemisphere. I'm sure that has a bit to do with it... Hmm, summer? Here? I guess the summer is on a wednesday this year ... Micha |

I guess I'm too much of a realist to fool myself into seeing it that way. To me it's no different than telling a salaried employee to save up so they can pay themselves when they go on vacation rather than the company paying them. |
Well, the difference is that one person is salaried.
Compare it to teachers. They can get paid more per month for 9 months, or
less per month for 12 months.
I look at freelancing like the 9 month option. Make sure you get paid enough
while you are working to cover the time you aren't.
In an 'ideal' world, you can keep enough in the bank as a freelancer to give
yourself a weekly salary, so you can actually become a 'salaried'
freelancer. That doesn't always quite work out, of course.
Again, though, like you say, we're just looking at the same thing
differently. ;o)

The web forum has been down for several days. You get a notice if you try to go there, but it doesn't tell you what the problem is. There are also links to direct people to this and other MM newsgroups, but I imagine that many new users are intimidated by the the process of switching to a newsreader. |
I MAKE FRAMES WORK?" messages.
Speaking of which - there seem to be a whole bunch of frames-related
message recently. Anybody know why? Has somebody just published an
article about a r3a11y |<3w1 way to make webpages?

I suspect it had something to do with a *lack* of Summers. ;-)

IIRC there were problems with the database server, so while it's being
addressed the web forums (the one app that generates the most traffic
out of all of them) had to be brought down on production to make sure
the other apps (online store, membership, etc.) had plenty of headroom.
The web team is working pretty hard at it as we speak (and has been for
a while now), but I haven't heard an ETA for a relaunch just yet.
Keep posted, of course...
