Message-ID: <46E5841A.1080800@post891.org> Hey, So I haven't seen any activity on this list in a while. Is open-source starting back up soon? I know fall quarter is about to begin and such. Just idle curiosity. I was wondering if there might be somebody that might give a presentation on nessus. It looks really interesting, but I haven't figured out how to effectively use it.

Which sums up why I am weeks behind on anything and everything Ohio. Sad fact, is that I only catch football scores the next day, as I haven't even watched any OSU football games yet this year. Behind the scenes, Jim and I had been doing some event planning, but I don't think we've formalized dates or topics yet. Important things coming up: -Autumn involvement fair 9/17 monday noon to 4pm on the oval -school and perhaps our first meeting -Ohio LinuxFest 2007 Sept 29 saturday Quick goals for this year: increase activity within opensource, gain new members, spread computer science interest/pride among fellow computer science students and perhaps to the rest of the campus, reach out to our neighboring groups and have occasional CS/technology meetings that are not limited to just opensource.. i.e. ACM, ACM-W, IEEE, ntSIG, someother CSE or EE groups,, get money for decent lab equipment, get a mini fridge and couch in the office, have pizza parties in the Caldwell Labs 112 / 112F through Google funds so that ALL computer science students can get a break., spawn some smart people to create some cool apps for mobile devices.... As you can see this might border on crazy, and if this reaching out to ntSIG is heresy then let your voice be heard. lets get it started...

Message-ID: <37df3f337e1b15.37e1b1537df3f3@osu.edu> Depends, if you're looking for a cleanup at a db level (aka, holes in the datafiles left due to deleted records, etc) that depends on which table handler you are using MyISAM or InnoDB. Considering you are using Wordpress (which I know nothing about it's internals), I'm assuming the data in the database is almost never deleted. It's written once, then read many times for display. If this is the case, then your datafiles are probably mostly intact and won't benefit from any db level cleanup. You can try an optimize, but you mileage will vary. http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/optimize-table.html Jeremy ----- Original Message ----- From: Paul Betts Date: Friday, September 14, 2007 12:31 pm Subject: [opensource] Cleaning up MySQL? > Alright OSUOSS, does anyone know how to do anything about a MySQL > database that's growing too big?

I am attending the thing and would like to get a booth set up for the Open Source Club. I will be there early in the morning as I will be setting up the FSF booth and maybe manning it for a bit and so would not mind doing the same thing for the club. Lets see if we can quickly get this sorted out and at least have a presence like we did last year. Here is when I am free and willing to man the booth. 10AM - 3PM including lunch. Note: If there is no booth for us I will become a roaming booth.

That way we can set up all promotional things we would like for the event and come up with some schedule of stuff. I am free all day tomorrow, in the evening Wednesday, and all day Thursday. Hopefully that will work and we can get something going. Let me know when you are free. Jim Dinan wrote: > Hi Farhad, > > I'm also planning to attend.
