A running job jar of ideas and notes on the construction of the 
centrale blocco sub-section
of  Orcmid's Lair on the web. 

The construction job jar is for tasks about the construction of the blocco subsection, and its content.  It is not about the projects involving blocco, although there is occasional overlap, especially in the early stages of construction and setting up system management project structures.

  2005-04-16 Confirm "nofollow" settings in the bottom-of-page block for all of the 2005/ folios and this level: M050401, M050401a, M050201, M050201a, M050201b, 2005/index.htm, C000000, construction.htm, index.htm.  Then pass it up one level.
  2005-04-16 I need to use an extension other than .htm on fragmentary include pages, so they don't show up as regular HTML pages.  I wonder if FrontPage extensions will work properly if I were to say .inc or .xml or some other extension.  I wonder if FrontPage extensions will work properly if I use a container other than <body> for the includable material.  That would also be interesting.  This is a fairly elaborate experiment and I am not that sure about doing it now.
  2005-04-16 I need to find out how to protect certain data that I don't want disclosed even if someone were able to remove the hard drive from the machine and get around the operating system that way.
  2005-04-16 I need a security policy concerning what is on Blocco that I am not willing for a thief to gain access to. I need to limit this and also make sure that I keep the attack surface as small as possible.
  2005-04-16 There are also accessories (e.g., pen, battery, case) that may be part of the configuration join or not.  These present another set of interesting challenges.
  2005-04-16 The hardware configuration needs to be broken down so the configurable elements are identified.  There is a join that represents the configuration at any given time, which means there is also a register that tracks the changes of the join against time, and the versions cross-link too.
  2005-04-16 I need a way to hold onto the date-sequenced join of software and hardware and other a-installed-in/on-b cases. This is a recurring problem. I wonder how I'm going to solve it.  Maybe one page per date. 
  2005-04-16 I need a folio for the hardware configuration, one where the current configuration is presented as an IncludePage and the current configuration can be cross-indexed. 
  2005-02-10 I had a power-up incident. I think it was my second. We got to a plain screen that said Windows was starting up.   There was also a keyboard image, but the thing seemed to be stuck.  I forced power off and put it away.  This was after plugging in the power adapter after it was starting up (so I could see the amber light along with the running light).  I set it down to be completely charged.  I will try again later.
  2005-02-10 This may be the machine that I try out ActiveWords with. [dh:2005-02-10 Buzz has something about that.]
  2005-02-10 Note that we want a least-privilege setup and how we are going to get it, the normal lock-down operations to achieve what we want.
  2005-02-10 Acknowledge the heat problem, finding a "cool pad" and anything else I need, including some sort of surface protector for the display when in tablet orientation.
  2005-02-10 I need to make a decision about firewalls on Blocco before I upgrade to XP SP2.  I think I want to use Zone Alarm Pro so that I can tell when something is accessing the network and I don't know about it.  I also have to see how that works with NAV 2004, which I have allowed to setup but I haven't downloaded any Live Updates yet.
  2005-02-10 Purchase and download a copy of HyperSnap-DX for Blocco so that I can record some things about it.
  2005-02-10 Provide an account of how Blocco was named and why.  Blog about it.
  2005-02-10 Add going wireless and how to work that, as well as configuration management, to topics to address.
  2005-02-10 Set up resources for the tablet PC, and see what I can find about that.
  2005-02-10 Look at how to get the security view of folders, instead of the sharing view with no security.  This may come with the network setup.  Figure it out.  This will be part of the administrator or configuration management I suspect.

2005-02-10 Account for the battery life and create a tracking experiment on the battery and settings that matter.  I should do power-management fairly soon.  Include photos of the indicators and screen shots of the power-level.
  2005-02-10 I confirmed that there is a microphone on my machine and I set it up.  Go through the setup again and also show where the hole is, how I figured out the gain to use, and what it is like.  Then look at how it works with headphones, etc.
  2005-02-10 This may be a problem with the configuration installed by Averatec (CD-ROM bootable, default account setup, and the classic control panel view), or with the Windows Tablet PC 2002.  I don't know.  Need to figure out which software this is for here and strumenti.
  2005-02-10 Record problem with the initial sign-on and lack of preparation for what there is to do to provide an initial, safe system.  This leads into the automatic log-on failure that comes up every time, the fact that orcmid was first set up as a password-less administrator.  I need to find out how to turn off the automatic log-on.
  2005-02-07 Blog something about Scoble and getting a tablet PC.
  2005-02-07 Look at the problem of initial inventory and other activities that I need to do with blocco.
  2005-02-07 Create an account of the evaluation, acquisition, naming and arrival, and installation of blocco.
done 2005-02-07 Create a blocco/2005 subfolder for holding system-management notes.
done 2005-02-07 Create construction zone by cloning the one from centrale/centro
