Call to CFUGS: Toolset Project will Benefit the Whole Community!

 
Feb 07, 2000
A request to all CFUGS came in to beta-test a new toolset. This is the original request, and we'd like all CFUGs to come in and help:

"The Atlanta and Ohio Area CFUGs, in cooperation with ComputerJobs.com are working to develop a custom tag toolset that will enable CF job listings to be extracted from online job databases in a WDDX format. This custom tag set will allow CFUGs to populate their websites with jobs from national, regional, and local job database sites. The tags are set up by default to fetch new job listings at a minimum frequency of once every 24 hours. The tags then cache the job listings to your CFUG server's hard drive as a WDDX packet between fetches.

"The assistance of other CFUGs in the US is requested to help beta test this toolset. Please remember that this toolset is currently in beta, and that either the receiving or sending end of the toolset may change before the final release is made. In other words, please read the release notes before replacing your existing tags with new versions. There may be changes that you need to address.

"Instructions for use are included in the example.cfm file, and you can get he files at the location found below. Bug reports should be sent to dswitzer@pengoworks.com."

(Our thanks to Cameron Childress of ACFUG and the CFUG Manager Newsletter for sending us this information.)
