Place chat room tabs vertically in Konversation IRC client

Konversation is the best of the IRC clients i could find for Ubuntu, as in, it is the least annoying. But if you have as many IRC chat room tabs open as i usually have, the default configuration of having them across the bottom makes the name of each tab impossible to read very quickly.

Fortunately, this is configurable.

Drupal Training Programs

Agaric does trainings (in addition meetups and camps and involvement in events and programs related to the the Definitive Guide to Drupal), but we haven't started a formal public program. Update 2014: OK we've done enough, especially with OwnSourcing, to consider it semiformal. Contact Agaric or contact OwnSourcing for Backbone, Drupal 8, or other exciting trainings.

How Clientside Validation's JavaScript Works

Everything added as a method only exists elsewhere as a type of rule (in PHP). See for example these searches.

PHP Arrays plus symbol (+) syntax

http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.operators.array.php

With the $array1 + $array2 syntax, anything with a text key in $array1 is kept, at the expense of anything with the same key in $array2.

Fixing Network Manager Overwriting DNS

in

Ubuntu Network Manager removes nameserver from resolv.conf

Note: /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf was a blank file for me, not sure it's supposed to be...

sudo vi /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf

add:
prepend domain-name-servers 127.0.0.1

/etc/init.d/networking restart && /etc/init.d/network-manager restart

Download and install Drupal in one step

Drubuntu has a 'site add' functionality, but aside from being limited to Drubuntu it does as a multisite (no thanks) with the site's settings.php and files weirdly symlinked to a directory sitting alongside the download itself. (Ah, i just realize that it probably adds all sites to this one multisite.)

Best practice for an upgraded site to define RDF mappings for RDFa output?

A site that has been upgraded from Drupal 6 to Drupal 7 has not even had this code from standard.install in the Standard profile run yet. Can generic mappings like this be easily taken care of in other custom configuration of RDF or should this (plus more?) go in an update hook?
