PIVOT East Application Deadline Extended to 22nd April 2013
by Moses Kemibaro 12 Apr '13

12 Apr '13

Everyone, Good morning. Over the last few weeks, the team from PIVOT East 2013 has been conducting weekly outreach workshop for applicants in Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, and Tanzania. The last workshop was in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania earlier this week at KINU. Based on the feedback we have received from numerous PIVOT East 2013 applicants after each workshop, it became apparent that more time is needed to prepare their applications. On this basis, we are pleased to announce that we are extending the application deadline for PIVOT East 2013 by one more week from the 15th of April 2013 to the 22nd of April 2013. The additional week will enable PIVOT East 2013 applicants to submit their applications on time, as well as be as complete as possible. In addition, a good number of mobile developers throughout East Africa have only recently become aware of PIVOT East 2013 and as a result the extension of the deadline will assist them in finalising their applications for the competition in good time. Entries for PIVOT East 2013 are being received at http://entries.pivoteast.com Best regards, Moses Kemibaro Producer - PIVOT East 2013 www.pivoteast.com

Help: Can Public URL in Reference Links Cause Problem
by Samuel Waithaka 11 Apr '13

11 Apr '13

Hi guys, I'm trying to troubleshoot a painfully slow application. Let me explain a bit: in the configuration, there is a url parameter which used by CSS and JS (url reference as opposed to relative), as well as application's base URL. This url is a public IP. In this arrangement, the application starts loading but after sometime it won't load anymore. It will stay trying to load page forever. Does this have anything to do with using public IP in the JS reference links? On the contrary, when the url parameter is changed to localhost and the application viewed locally, everything works OK. This application was running as described earlier; that was before until the ISP was changed. Has anyone experienced this or has an idea what could be wrong? -- Samuel Waithaka http://twitter.com/samwaithaka
