You're obviously the same md_doc as at

Did someone get bought out? Some commerical entity looking to "buy" the devshed community? That's my guess. We'll see.

well that is why I was just trying to lurk until everything was announced but that did not work too well.

Yes Hero Zzyzzx I am the same md_doc as that. If you do a search for md_doc anywhere it will most likely turn up to be me as I have been using that nick since 1996 and I like it

Looks like my suspicions are confirmed, at least in my mind.

Read:

You can't hide this stuff with google out there spidering everything in sight.

I am not trying to hide anything, I am just not allowed to discuss it. There is a little bit if a difference.

I can say I will make sure to do everything in my power to make these forums better than they were before I was an admin on them.

Things do indeed come together this way:

ducani
http://www.webhostpost.com/member.p...etinfo&userid=1

md_doc
http://www.webhostpost.com/member.p...etinfo&userid=8

From hero's link
Quote:
The “Content Per Click (CPC)” partnership is free and is based upon submissions of the above information. For additional information on the CPC partnership please email Shari Caputo at shari@itsallnet.com.


That's 3

Now I need to figure out what this CPC is

edit
Shouldn't have asked the question I guess since now gossip starts and people may go think (strange) things. On the other hand, if this had to keep a secret then why create the admin accounts earlier then the pressrelease or whatever...

It turned out the S. Caputo above probably isn't the jcaputo I had in mind (focused to much on the caputo part). From itsallnet:
Quote:
The CEO of itsALLnet, Inc. is Jonathan Caputo
So the other new admin is the CEO there.
WebHosters is owned by itsallnet (at least the copyright on the site is) btw... making the new admins from itsallnet?!?

New question: if devshed would participate in this CPC the itsallnet-ppl wouldn't need to be admin here so it's probably something else?!?

edit2
is it obvious I'm bored?

Still curious but I'll (try to) be patient

Sorry. "Hide" sounds dirty. "Stealth mode" might be more appropriate.

Thats good - I think a good start would be to integrate a hidden admin/moderator forum where you guys can post and communicate with us about any problematic issues, ideas, etc..

One other thing - how come we have no advert deals with zend? I would think zend would be tripping over there own feet trying to advertise with us being the php community here is one of the largest... (not just zend, but other os companies also)

I figured I had to stop and patiently wait till I got the news in order not to mess up things any further but if you like my attempts I can't resist

It's official...

ItsAllNet.com, Inc today announced that it has acquired the DevShed.com web site from Developer Shed, Inc. of St. George Utah.

Since 1997, DevShed.com has featured original articles and tutorials about open source web development technologies such as PHP, Apache and Zope. DevShed.com also boasts a strong community of web developers and programmers that particpate in their discussion forums. Terms of the purchase were not disclosed.

"The DevShed community of members is the best I've seen," Developer Shed President Randy Cosby said. "Our tutorials, coupled with the strong support from our forums members have helped thousands develop their open source technology and web building skills. I'll miss being involved in that effort."

Jonathan Caputo, president of ItsAllNet.com looks forward to building the DevShed site and helping more users discover Open Source technologies. "DevShed.com has been one of my favorite sites to vist since it went live, and I plan on upholding the traditions of DevShed.com by continuing the original quality content and hope to add additional tools for our visitors." It is also my hope that Randy as well as the existing moderators of the forums will continue to remain active on DevShed.com.

About Developer Shed, Inc.

Where possible they use open source technlogy for all their projects.

Hi everyone - The cats out of the bag so to speak. My name is Jonathan Caputo, and I just recently purchased a old favorite haunt of mine (DevShed). I love this site, and what Randy and his team have done with it. And I believe that DevShed has one of the best forum communities on the internet today. I believe that is mostly in part to its excellent moderators and the knowledgable and helpful visitors that frequent the DevShed forums. It is my every wish and goal to continue the things that make this site great, and add some features and design changes to make it even better. It is my great wish and hope that any suggestions or ideas you may have for DevShed, no matter what they may be, that you let me know.
