• Toward a More Dynamic Security Model

  I’ve been thinking about the dashCommerce security model – or lack thereof.

• dashCommerce v.Next

  I’ve been fairly quiet over the last few months. Most of that is due to the new addition to my family (my new son, Harrison), but some of it is because I am in mad scientist mode. That entails a ton of reading and prototyping. I’ve been taking a close... Posted Nov 22 2008, 01:42 PM by Chris Cyvas Filed under: Coding, Open Source, dashCommerce

• NullPaymentProvider added to dashCommerce

• What a Great couple weeks!

  I’ve had a pretty good couple of weeks. I don’t feel as though I talk a whole lot about “me” on this blog – most of it is related to dashCommerce, which is ok, but occasionally I like to peel things back and throw some personal stuff out there. The first... Posted Nov 01 2008, 11:35 AM by Chris Cyvas Filed under: Coding, Open Source, dashCommerce, Personal

• dashCommerce Conference Call Anyone?

  I had an idea tonight as I was chatting with Yitzchok and louisd - why not have a dashCommerce Conference Call? We can use Skype and I can include 24 others.

• dashCommerce - Giving even more to the community!

  A couple of weeks ago I went around and contributed to just about every open source framework / assembly / tool that dashCommerce uses except for 2. One because they never got back to me on how to contribute and another because the project leader is a...
