The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

I've never attempted to dig into this before and all of you probably know more about what's going on with this piece than I do, but I've got a series of questions: 1. Is there a known API for Notes and Journal, and Online Scriptures? Given the Gospel Library apps and the other projects I'm assuming ...

It appears this is hosted outside the church network. Any idea why this wasn't hosted at one of our colo facilities?

I am from an underdeveloped part of the world I guess (North Ogden UT) but I have no interest in Linux. It may become the industry standard and then I will move over but for now I will stay with my windows box. I have a friend in Texas that lives and breaths OS2 - He really loves it and usings it e...

And even though you might know never to do " rm -rf / " as root the current setup seems to have everyone log in with root privileges and I fear what a naive clerk might do with all that power. My favorite quote, "Linux is great, like C is great, useful, powerful and can blow your leg off." I like t...

I've found that one of the key problems to unifying backup solutions is not the users, but the applications. It seems any corporation of any size these days always has a collection of servers of various sizes (often under utilized) that breed like rabbits. The driving force behind these servers are ...

I've enjoyed using Miranda for all my IM needs. Also has a IRC plugin that works well if you're not a heavy IRC user (otherwise mIRC is pretty good for Windows).Currently I'm running AIM, IRQ, IRC, Jabber (Google), MSN, and Yahoo with it. It has plugins for several others as well. Miranda is free an...

I do think that a real good point was made in starting this thread though. In a lot of different church aspects it's not to difficult to get some idea of what's currently going on or where things are going, but when it comes to Family History, even though there's a lot of information available, it's...

Interesting idea. I'll pass it along to the MLS guys. If they were to do it, there would need to be work done to disable certain features (such as transmitting information to the Church). Tom Though I am not an accountant (I've had a lot of exposure to the task) I'd recommend you have some accounta...

Personally, I'd bet the issue is even worse. Given communication and transportation standards back then, I'll bet changes in timekeeping weren't universally accepted by a given governed group at the same time.... So if you say 1602/1603, maybe is REALLY IS 1602 or 1603... Personally, I know it's oft...

The discussion has been that ward clerks are not as technical as STS and therefore may feel lost when visiting tech.lds.org. However, on the other hand, there is a lot great information and help that a ward clerk may miss if he were only visiting a ward clerk forum. Not always. I've noticed that th...
