Planet GS Down, but There Is Good News

February 15th, 2007 · 10 Comments · Uncategorized

Yes you can see, the PHP lite Planet GS has finally crashed. The view is not pretty.

The good news is that the new/old Planet GS built on Python is just about ready to go. I’ve got the DNS to change over so as soon as that takes, we’ll be back to having a working Planet Geospatial.

    C’mom, just bite the bullet and rewrite the entire thing in Rails… You know you want to, just so you can say you did it.

    Then you can create a ArcIMS Viewer using Rails and make it open source…..

    I agree with David
    If you do the viewer please make it available also for MapServer ;-)

    In totally unrelated news - a search for James Fee in google returns you first. Before today it was always the photographer.

    So… the way to up your search rating is to off your competition?

    [...] been hit by the Planet Geospatial Voodoo. James has been nice enough to go under the hood of the ever so sensative PG and re-link to my blog. Must have been dropped in the shuffle of the last few months, but rest [...]
