I don’t know the exact number of hours spent on HanMeta today. I gotta keep better track of the hours spent. I mean, I read my feeds during my breaks, and do some other work related to finding a full time job. Regardless, It’s just been a very very hectic day.

I’ll try to be a little bit more detailed so that others that are trying to set up Rails, Subversion, and Capistrano won’t have to go through the craziness that ensued today. Just need to figure out Capistrano… followed by lots of tweaking.

Yes. I’m so happy the app is getting started. I set a goal for this Sunday night (a little leeway) to have all this process stuff out of the way. Which mean I need to:

• People
  • Who’s in? Who do I want in at this early stage?
  • Who’s doing what?
  • Take inventory of the hours people have to put towards this project
• Rails
  • FastCGI vs Proxing HTTP?
  • How do I even do the second (because I hear it’s the right thing to do) on DreamHost?
  • So many other questions just about deploying an app…
• Subversion
  • Double check on user/passwords
  • Make documentation (very similar to what I did with UIUC’s College of Education) on how to connect to the servers
• ActiveCollab
  • BaseCamp or ActiveCollab?
  • Set up user accounts as needed
• Capistrano

Oh, and as a bonus, I want to run through the tutorial in the Rails book again before the end of the week. That way, I’ll be completely prepared for the n00bage that’s going to start next week.

I really hope that this doesn’t turn out like the last time I set out to do this. Lesson from that failure: Do something. It’s so hard to get things rolling.
