Board Upgrade Status 16 Years, 7 Months ago  
We wanted to bring you up to date on the progress of the Board software issues and upgrades. Dustin, Greg and I met in Cobb today to review alternatives for resolving the WSOD (White Screen of Death) posting issue on the Board. We (Greg and Dustin) were successful in the test environment installing Kunena, which is the replacement for Fireboard. We also successfully loaded the Board Database containing historical posts. The good news is that this version of the software appears to have resolved the issues causing the repeated WSOD error that has been prevalent recently. We were able to view many of the posts that exist in the database that have users have not been able to access due to this error.

Our plans are to continue working in the test environment to ensure that the software is fully configured and working within the NCFFB environment. We anticipate releasing a version of the software in the next few weeks so that users can preview the software in the test environment. After confirming the installation of the software we will go ahead and install in the live environment.

We do want to make people aware that Kunena currently does not support the “Threaded View”, which is the preferred alternative with many users on the NCFFB. This step is an interim measure until we can program the threaded view alternative into the Kunena software. Greg has agreed to take this action item on and work with the Kunena software engineers to make this a reality. While we understand this may impact users who rely the threaded format, the Steering Committee believes it is in the best interests of the Board to solve the posting issues as a priority, and work to re-introduce the threaded view as soon as software updates can be made.

Subsequent to the Kunena upgrade, we also plan on working to upgrade the overall site to Joomla 1.5. This will improve stability, security and should result in improved performance.

We will keep you up to speed on developments as they occur.

I love talking fly-fishing. So, if you want some info on fly angling my "home waters" in the Truckee area, do not hesitate to contact me off the board; whether by phone (530-587-7333) or e-mail (cyberfly@cyberfly.com). Please be patient relative to a quick reply; most especially during May-October.

My latest crusade is limiting undo fly fishing guide impact on the Little Truckee River. This small venue is being abused my commericial guiding interests. Consequently the fishery is being abused, IMO, most especially by guides to the detriment of the fishery. Moderation is the key in usage.

During the last two seasons I've diplomatically mentioned to many guides that they should coordinate with others guides so that they minimize impact...it has been to no avail. Some entities are more guilty than others; weather independent or "stabled" (outfitter or fly shop). So I've just started taking this public. Any civil suggestions/comments on limiting guide impact would be appreciated.

For my complete bio go to www.cyberlfy.com; then click-on my photo.



NOW FOR THE SPAM!!

Simply, I'm a fly fishing junkie. In 1984, in order to justify my addiction, I started Thy Rod & Staff in Truckee; the longest existing, fly fishing guide service in the Tahoe area and possibly one of the longest in California. I'm an independent; so the "buck stops with me". I tailor trips to the specific desires and skill levels of the client; no "my way or the highway" guiding.

Simply, experience counts folks! 2009 will be my 26th year exclusively as a professional fly fishing guide in Truckee. As long as I enjoying the interaction with other passionate fly anglers and/or those new to the sport; my service will continue into the future. I also "host" fly fishing club outings.

Encouraged by clients & family I started the Reel School of Fly Fishing in 1996. There are scheduled one & two-day clinics through-out the "general" season; entailing a maximum 3-to-1 attendee-to-instructor ratio. Now, since the season if open year-round; I have a scheduled snow-shoe/fly fishing group-outing during March.

Again in 2010 I will be "hosting" two groups at a private lodge in Chilean Patagonia; located 2+hours from Coyhaique, Chile. The lodge accommodates six (6) fly anglers only. It is located in an isolated river valley (40 minute jet-boat ride down river...no roads). From my past experience in this area, I'm guessing it is like Montana was 50-60 years ago....far-far-away from the "real world". Inquire for specifics, I will be going there every year. I've arranged with the lodge for some incredible pricing for two "hosted" weeks in 2010. Also I can arrange other stays and special pricing...contact me.

Well, Frank, I for one, would entertain your posts. I hope all is well. I'll be up your way in mid October for the Tahoe Truckee Fly Fishers' work day party that will close illegal OHV access trails down to the meadow area of the Little Truckee. I hope to bring a truck full of workers with me. Perhaps we can hook up on the day before.

Re:Board Upgrade Status 16 Years, 7 Months ago  
Glad to hear about the up-grades. I have built a couple Joomla sites. One had Fireboard which I quickly got rid of. I didn't need all the bells and whistles and the darn thing just has too many problems. I am also working in Joomla 1.5 which is a huge improvement over 1.0. Going to 1.5 with a new bulletin board extension will be a big improvement.

Thank you guys very much for your work on the site!!!

Phil,

The Shepherd hates to keep saying it, but the truth is always much easier to accept when one comes out of denial! This is ALWAYS the first step towards recovery! This is not a recent development, and has been prevalent since the old board software was replaced by the Hitlerators with the new BORED revisionistware! Either way, better late than never. Although Senor Shepherd the Great, thinks any Hitlerator with half a functioning brain would have came out of denial and admitted there was a BIG problema prior to half the flock leaving and the half that stayed posting on other forums and linking it here, due to the broken revisionistware!

Re:Board Upgrade Status 16 Years, 6 Months ago  
Shep,

We may be beating a dead sheep, but there is no denial that we've had problems with the new Board format from the beginning. We met as a Steering Committee at the Spring Bash about 18 months ago shortly after implementation of the new Board and developed the list of changes and upgrades needed. The priority at that time was to resolve the WSOD error. But, we're all volunteers, and all hold full time jobs that take priority over Board upgrades. And up until recently, Greg was the only one with the technical expertise to fix the issues. You've seen the news about Agilent recently, so I'm sure you can imagine how deep in the he's been. So it hasn't gotten done. In addition to Greg, Dustin has volunteered to step in and donate significant time to lend a hand and get the upgrades installed. We are committed to improve the performance of the Board. The involvement and tone set by the community is up to you all. It is a fishing Board, not a flamethrowing and whining Board. My vote is for a few more fishing reports from those of us fortunate to get out on the water.
