ICT Board End of An Error
by David Kiania | Asentric Consulting Ltd 20 Aug '13

20 Aug '13

The ICT minister has dissolved 3 bodies handling ICT issues into one Authority to be known as ICT Authority. http://www.nation.co.ke/business/news/New+authority+to+improve+ICT+efficien… ICTA now takes over the roles and resources previously held by the ICT Board of Kenya, the e-Government Directorate and the Government Information and Technology Services (GITS). As ICT Board tenure comes to an end can't help but wonder what can be listed as it's accomplishments, bar international trips to Silicon Valley, and Connected Govt conference?

OT: Expedia.com for dummies
by Timothy Mutugi 19 Aug '13

19 Aug '13

Hi Friends, This is totally totally OFF TOPIC...but I believe this is one of the few places I can get credible assistance. I guess a good number of the people on this list are frequent fliers and this is why I need this expedia.com 101 lesson. Well, I want to travel soon and I want to buy a ticket via expedia.com since it seems cheaper than buying directly from the airlines. Here are my queries: 1. Is there anyone on the list who has ever bought a ticket from expedia.com and successfully gotten out of the country without any hitches? 2. When one buys this e-ticket, does one need to print it out and go with it to the airport? 3. When one gets to the departures place, what will they ask from me... 4. Can I confirm with the airline as to whether I have actually been booked by expedia.com to fly on the actual date selected? This is the first time in my life that I will be up there above the clouds, so please be gentle... Best Regards, Timo. ps. When I return I will bring you gifts...

These big guys have their own internal blacklist database and will pull you from the dog house at their pace. You can forward the mails to another server but don't think it will work as they are probabily checking the domain and IP. So forwarding change IP but not domain. Have you fixed the problem by the way? Ensure only allowed senders can use your mail server and even allowed should go through spam assassin. Muriithi http://www.spamhaus.org/ > Thomas >

Re: [Skunkworks] Fire at JKIA

Fire detectors may be there, but I think the big issue is preparedness of staff and emergency services. I personally know the nairobi fire chief and know for a fact that between nairobi fire dept. And JKIA, they should have more than 6 fire trucks and that there should be extinguishers in the terminals but the unrehearsed reaction was what caused the tragedy ---------- Sent via Nokia Email ------Original message------ From: Odhiambo Washington <odhiambo(a)gmail.com> To: "Skunkworks Mailing List" <skunkworks(a)lists.my.co.ke> Date: Thursday, August 8, 2013 1:01:52 PM GMT+0300 Subject: Re: [Skunkworks] Fire at JKIA Interesting.

IT Managers
by Dennis Kioko 14 Aug '13

14 Aug '13

To avoid hijacking the raid question, will give my views on IT managers here. Main reason they are seen as overheads is because they don't talk business language ie, they speak in IT when giving requirements , rather than explain the effect on the bottom line for the purchases and what business gets in return. You will also notice that social media and websites are now marketing functions.

Data Recovery Costs
by Bwana Lawi 14 Aug '13

14 Aug '13

Hi guys, How are data recovery charged? Is it per hour and if so how much? I feel someone is being irresponsible. This guy came to repair a machine in our office that wouldnt boot. The first thing he tried was reinstalling win 7. I would expect that to be the last option. So when the installation failed, he took the laptop to his office for data recovery A day later he comes back with a bill of Kes 4,500 per hour for 16 hrs. (Plus screenshots) Unfortunately I was away while this was happening as I feel I could have handled it better. As far as I can tell, the hdd was readable therefore it was completely irresponsible to attempt a reinstall without backing up data and then come back to charge us for recovery If the guy(s) involved are skunk members they are giving us a bad name.

Most android vendors seem to think updating their sold phones will discourage new purchase. Something that has not worked out as phones with firmware as old as 4 years are still in use.

Not that good idea either. I had a HTC G2 which HTC never supported and why I am never buying from them again ever. I tried Cynogen and it was fine, but they also didn't support it for long. This is because the graphic driver are not open source so without their support, the Cynogen community can't help much. Still have it, it hang often- the touch screen become unresponsive - and I regret installing Cynogen. If you want pain free product that offer iPhone class support, buy nexus 4.

Smartphone Phone & OS updates
by Claude D'souza 12 Aug '13

12 Aug '13

Hi everyone, I'm curious about smartphone updates. Akin to PC updates (the bane of Microsoft Os's) we all hear of phone specific updates and the more important OS (Android in this case) releases. I currently use a HTC phone and have been aware that an Android update has been released for it in November last year,it was made available to South Africa in April but no other information was forthcoming. Does anyone have experience updating their smart phones in Kenya,or know a convenient way to get around the official release wait time? Thanks -- Claude A. D'souza

OT: Cropping high quality photos from about 60 PDF scans
by Adam Nelson 09 Aug '13

09 Aug '13

Anybody know somebody who can crop photos out of PDFs (about 60 pages) at high DPI (200+). A family friend needs this done asap for an album he's making (i.e. by tomorrow morning) and can offer 3 000Ksh via mpesa. I don't think there's an automated way to do it other than slogging through the PDFs and exporting them as high quality PNG or JPEG format. Cheers, Adam

> Fire detectors may be there, but I think the big issue is preparedness of staff and emergency services. I personally know the nairobi fire chief and know for a fact that between nairobi fire dept. And JKIA, they should have more than 6 fire trucks and that there should be extinguishers in the terminals but the unrehearsed reaction was what caused the tragedy > That and the fact that Nairobi motorists don't give way to emergency vehicles. Its actually a petty pathetic habit and that may causing too many unnecessary cases ending badly. Muriithi
