Private fiber link btwn two buildings in CBD
by Andrew Kerich 31 May '12

31 May '12

Hi, We require a dark fiber link between two buildings in the CBD which involves crossing Wabera street. I do not wish to go through any ISP network as this would have been an immediate solution but this is limited and not cost effective in the long run. It will involve obtaining city council permit, micro-tunneling under the tarmac etc. Pls inbox if you know any company that can deliver this. Rgds Kerich.

Re: [Skunkworks] World IP V6 Day Press Release
by Barrack Otieno 31 May '12

31 May '12

*World IPv6 launch Breakfast organized by the Internet Society Kenya Chapter * *Press Release* *31st May 2012*** * * The Internet Society Kenya Chapter is organizing the World IPv6 Launch breakfast at the I Hub on June 6 2012 from 8 am. to 11 am. This is a global launch date for IPv6 supported by the Internet Society, all the major technology players like Google, Microsoft, and Cisco, as well as governments and companies like Face book, Yahoo, and many more who are adding support for this new technology. Obviously this is something that has been in the making for many years, and last year there was a 24 hour global IPv6 test flight with quite a number of top 1000 websites that clearly showed that the switch will be perfectly safe. With IPv6 being the 'new normal,' and now that IPv4 address supplies have run out globally, there is real economic need. The specific requirements for participation in the various categories of access networks, home routers, and websites are as follows: For access networks a commitment to make IPv6 part of their regular business is required. This means new subscribers get IPv6 on by default from June 6th 2012 and no special user configuration required to access the IPv6 Internet. To enable verification of progress towards this goal, access networks are also required to be delivering 1% of visits to major IPv6-enabled websites over IPv6 by 6th June. The level of IPv6 usage depends on the IPv6 capabilities and configuration of home networks, so the enabled customer base needed to be greater than 1% to reach this target. Measurements are being made by the major website participants to verify meaningful participation. The second category of participant is home router vendors. Again the requirement is that IPv6 become part of regular business. This means a majority of products shipping with IPv6 on by default, meaning no user configuration is required to use IPv6. The University of New Hampshire Interoperability Lab (UNH-IOL) provides independent verification of IPv6 interoperability. Finally, websites wishing to participate are required to permanently enable IPv6 access to their main website, meaning IPv6-enabled users can now access their content over IPv6 without any additional configuration. Registration will be required since there are limited slots, to register kindly send an email to register(a)isoc.or.ke before Monday 4th June 2012. For more details please visit http://www.worldipv6launch.org/form/, all inquiries to info(a)isoc.or.ke. Issued by the Internet Society Kenya Chapter -- Barrack O.

Hi What would you recommend as a gud phone (smart or not) Range 20 - 30k. Gud Phone Specs - Battery Life - Talk Time - Stand By time - Ease of Use - View Emails - Qwerty Keyboard - Arrow keys - Ease in Contact Management - Ease in texting Bad Phone eg. Ideos U8150 - Stupid phone(IMHO) hangs when texting, unresposive touch at times - Stupid T9(IMHO) - Stupid Soft Keypad - Stupid ROM - Stupid Battery Life - Stupid Synchronization - Stupid GPS and chewing battery Life *Stupid is used figuratively here, with all due respect to all the devs/sales guys and all the peeps who took their time to revolutionize the market with android. No offence please. A ka mulika mwizi can suffice, imagine a 2k phone with 18k airtime that also counts Kindly advise. regards, Tusker 21

COLLABORATIVE EFFORT: KE Communication Service Providers' Stats/Score Cards
by Lloyd Njunge 23 May '12

23 May '12

Greetings, What began as a routine consultancy for a client with the subsequent objective being "Recommendation of the most suited Communications Service Provider (CSP) for their organization's connectivity needs." It occured to me (after a relatively extensive online search) that there exists no centralized "local" online location with comprehensive information on Kenyan CSPs. In a nutshell, a voluntary and collaborative effort by local internet as well as connectivity infrastructure users, hence the broad "CSP" reference; to actively log/submit a wide array of info on their respective CSP experience online. The said info would for instance range from: uptime/downtime statistics to 'bandwidth:cost' ratio as well as any other pertinent data. This info, would ultimately prove invaluable in ranking the respective CSPs according to their perfomance, service delivery and efficiency as opposed to being determined by their success in branding and PR management. In essence a platform that would ultimately puts them on the spot and keeps them honest. My only issue is, how to maintain data integrity with regard to user submitted info. Call me pessimistic but i highly doubt an anonymous CSP Employee for example would submit entirely accurate statistics especially in the event they might lower its rank and status. Any thoughts? -- Sent from my mobile device Kind Regards, *Njung'e N. Lloyd Cell: +254 723 739 733*

Zuku for Business
by Odhiambo Washington 23 May '12

23 May '12

Hello pple, I'd like to know anyone who uses Zuku and still remains sane - given what I have read on this forum before. I am setting up an office somewhere in Parklands and Zuku have a service there. I believe it's that one which is spread via KPLC poles. What I cannot make out is whether I can use such service for a business - an office setup that requires highly reliable Internet connectivity, sans congestion! I am looking at their website and cannot figure out what to choose from. I have been given an option called *Zuku Biz-8*, which I am told costs KES 5,800 monthly, with an installation fee of KES 4,000 Anyone using this service in a setup other than "home use", please tell me about it. Is it worth it? My connectivity will carry some voice traffic to a corporate PBX using VPN phones. I'd love to know whether I should go for this or just stick to a service I am used to, like a symmetric 512Kbps from Access Kenya - QB is expe! ;) -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ I can't hear you -- I'm using the scrambler.

Re: [Skunkworks] Kenyan Techies Q & A site
by Bosco Mutung'a 22 May '12

22 May '12

Well, i agree it's a complete clone of stack overflow, my point of view was to target a niche, that is kenyan techies. Stack overflow is a good tool, but there are some questions you cannot ask there which are kenyan specific or perhaps you might need to meet with a person who answered you question, this is what i'm trying to target. For instance, if you're question is answered by a techie who has high karma and a good reputation, you would be more inclined to make contact knowing that they are in kenya. Some of the kenyan specific question involve things to do with network providers, internet rates and where to get some cool stuff. I agree the idea of Q&A forums is widely overdone, but it is worth remembering, that these are the backbone of the internet and its worth a start in building local content. thanks.

I was shocked at some of the prices...one of the charged me in USD. I actually had to go back to his website and had another look. I felt challenged in that If i had a serious serious Camera (the ones with some crazy long lense) and photoshop CS6, I'm confident I would be able to produce something close (due to lack of practice, exposure in the field) but nevertheless so long as i capture all the special moments and photoshop them.

Re: [Skunkworks] Is there anyone who knows how much Software, developers should earn per man-hour in Kenya?
by Josh Handley 18 May '12

18 May '12

Never heard of anyone getting paid per line of code. Wouldn't make a lot of sense since the best developers usually write much less code to do the same thing than a novice developer by leveraging code reuse and good designs. I worked with a guy who's net effect on the roughly one million lines of code for our system was actually negative. He did a lot refactoring and architectural improvements and ending up removing 10 times the amount of code that he added. I guess if we had paid him per line of code he would have ended up owing us money. Payscale.com has some data on salaries for developers in Kenya but there are not a lot of data points. Would be nice to see some more substantial publicly available data. In my experience, developer salaries here are all over the place, even for people with the same skills and experience, and this is due in part to the fact that there isn't enough visibility in the market.

Ajax Loaded HTML in JQuery

Hi guys, I've had this JQuery issue for a long time; when Ajax content is loaded into an element through an event - I guess other than page ready event, the loaded HTML acts like it's hidden to JQuery. It's not possible to select the elements or perform any action on them. I've tried playing with cache and async options but to no avail. Has anyone witnessed this?

Looking for Mac book Air Repair [white screen of death]
by Eric Mwania 15 May '12

15 May '12

Dear Skunks, {Anyone contacts of anyone or a repair shop can repair or some advice on how to do it i wan appreciate} My Air was working flawless. Battery and charger in perfect shape. Just one year of light use. Right after a normal reboot, suddenly it stopped working: I get the startup chime, a bright white screen (without apple logo nor pointer), and nothing else. If, then, I don't shut it off, the fan starts working after some minutes. If I close down the lid, the screen remains lit. I've tried all the usual fixes and combinations: -plug the "system install" pendrive -reset the SMC -reset the PRAM -hold down Option key -hold down C key (for rEFIt) -battery powered, magsafe powered... Nothing works! I just get the chime and the permanent white screen. Eric Mwania

SQL Help
by Evans Otieno 15 May '12

15 May '12

In the SQL syntax SELECT A, B, (C-D) AS E, the "E" is an alias to an existing variable(s) and for that reason an alias in itself cannot be used within the same query as the entity it represents. T_SQL does not support proving variable as column alias in a query. What you can do to achieve the desired result is to use nested tables for your query...a temp table in the script structure can help you loads.

Apologies for cross posting: From: "Kevin G. Chege" <chege(a)isoc.org> Subject: African Internet Standards Forum - May 12th 2012, 9AM GMT Date: April 18, 2012 12:37:09 PM GMT+02:00 To: afnog(a)afnog.org Dear all, The Internet Society Africa Regional Bureau is organizing the first ever Africa wide Internet Standards Forum that will take place in Serekunda, Gambia on May 12th 2012 from 9.00am GMT to 1.00pm GMT. The forum will also be streamed live on the online conferencing tool Webex. The forum will discuss Internet standards and the role the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) plays in setting open Internet standards. African participation in IETF activities has been limited and this forum is an effort to encourage African participation in the IETF, especially for graduating class, Masters and Ph.D. level University students and instructors in order for Africa to play a role in the development of the Internet. University students, lecturers, researchers and Internet enthusiasts from Africa interested in learning about open Internet Standards are encouraged to attend. To attend, you can register online and participate remotely or attend the session at a participating local hub in your country. Details of the participating hubs (hosted by ISOC African chapters) will be made available by the 6th of May 2012. For those who will be in Gambia already attending AfNOG, details of the meeting room will be made available before the day of the forum. For more details, please visit http://internetsociety.org/events/african-internet-standards-forum To learn more about the IETF, watch this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tqc8vd_jPpg Regards Kevin G.

Network Monitoring Tools
by david aliata 10 May '12

10 May '12

Hello Guys, I would like some advice on free monitoring tools that you are using to monitor your WAN.Specifically,I have several sites whose internet connections is terminated on Cisco ASA 5510,Cisco 1941/1841,Catalyst Switches and Cisco AP's.I would like to be able to capture traffic from this sites and analyze this so that i can determine I. Who are our Top Talkers and who are they "talking" to in this sites II. What websites are routinely being visited and what is being downloaded III. If there are any signs of rogue network applications or malicious activity on the network IV. Determine Top applications in use in a particular site and bandwidth requirements Any ideas are appreciated!. Regards! Aliata D.

Off-line peer-to-peer Sharing Network.
by Stephen Wanjau 10 May '12

10 May '12

Hello Nice People, We cannot live without sharing information on the Internet which IMO is not that reliable in KE . You may have been a victim of circumstance where you were sent an E-mail and the day when you need to use the documents attached to it, the Internet fails or a ship passes across the TEAMs cable plus many other excuses of having sporadic Internet connections from our ISPs. Or you created your slides on-line on the ether-pad and when it is your time to present, You see this!! [image: Inline image 1] Come to think of think of it, we could have off-line solutions to this such as having Dead-drops[1]. This is in the method being used by Kiwix to spread off-line Wikipedia but the part of it that worries me most is digging holes on buildings before we stick those flash disks on the walls. Can this be adopted in KE even if not fully with some modifications of course. My 2 cents. //Stephen Wikimedia Kenya Board Member & Treasurer *More reading at* 1. http://deaddrops.com/ 2. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_Drop_%28USB%29
