Came across your discussion just now. Really like most of the themes, but Citylife comews closest to the feel of what you are looking for. As for bloat, has any work been done with
pupeee or pupezy as a base?
God Bless an good luck

I downloaded them and installed them on Puppy 4.00 with EZpup 4.03. They installed perfectly and the downloads to Bible Desktop from Crosswire were flawless. You solved several problems for me since I had been looking for some good Bible software and also needed to install Java.

Great job PrairieDog, may our Lord bless your efforts to spread His Word.

Thank you, Jim

So glad to find this...I can't seem to find much of any of the Puplet hordes since the old, friendly .org site was transmogrified into a slick, sterile, fugly place.

Shalom aleichem.

WHOOPS! SITE EXPIRED -- Will fix post-haste. Maybe even get an alpha up -- although time for such things seems not to be...sigh...

EDIT: all done and renewed. If you still have trouble, www.churchpup.netfirms.com is an alternate URL for the same thing.

Blessings-

Subito Piano,

Glad to see you back. Looking forward to your new alpha.

Happy New Year,
Jim

actually, it's DONE - it's BEEN done since June -- except for pulling out proprietary/non-free stuff. ("Life is what happens while you're busy making other plans."

) There's even another one i did with the retro kernel and BPBible via wine. I suppose i could upload them for a few of you to try out and lemme know what you think - i just can't "release" it yet. If you want, i'll look for time to finish it this week, and if not, i'll upload the unedited version and let you know via this thread.

fonts for one thing - esp. since he retro/BPBible was just done for a needful friend w/ a buggy laptop. I assume )?!??!?) flash is OK to package, but i think lame files are not (?!?!?) Keep in mind i am in the USA...

We need an online app that equips us to track visitors, regular attenders and members, to make sure contacts and visits are made regularly, that we are aware of changes in their lives, etc.

It needs to be password-protected so that only those authorized to view or alter data may do so.

It is preferable that it be platform-neutral, perhaps browser-based?

This was possible using Drupal but the overhead for setup and maintenance was prohibitive in my past experience.

Anything out there?

I was unclear - not Website visitors but church visitors, as well as members.

We need to know who is there and who is missing, who's in what SS classes and small groups, who is sick or needs other care, etc.

When someone visits they should post a brief report for authorized-others to view.

We do a lot of visiting but people can slip between the cracks or we can not be good stewards by too many people visiting the same person. We also need to be able to escale only when necessary - meaning that a non-deacon visits first, if there is a need then a deacon visits, and if there is a serious need then the pastor visits. A pastor rally should be mentoring deacons and other key leaders, and upcoming leaders. Most care-giving should be done at a different level.

It needs to be secure as much of that info should be confidential.

I have esword on Ubuntu and it is just as fast as in windows, no problems .
When I installed wine in Puppy Linux it installed esword 9.5 with no problem but I can't seem to make it run. It is in drive c but it is not in program files.
How can I run it from the command line?

Thanks!

Hi Subito Piano,

I guess that you are still very busy, since we still haven't seen you posting or your latest derivative.

Due to Frank's problem above and his research to get it working in Ubuntu, we managed to get eSword951 working in Lighthouse. TazOC's final version made some improvements that makes it very simple to install. Now we have a real heavyweight puppy that runs both Bibletime and eSword. Also, it has OpenOffice, Amarok, and many other nice applications.

Hope to see you back soon,
Jim

Hi all i am wondering if there is going to be a build of churchpup on quirky.

from my testing the woof puppy 5 series are good stable operating systems untill it comes to installing the ubuntu packaged apps. as puppy is not ubuntu i found it breaking the os. and other things.

all i am saying is are you going to build on quirky at any stage
