Using directory-reserved paths in Drupal

[There is no current general resolution to using directory-reserved paths, but it's surely possible with custom Apache rewrite rules-- apparently everyone concludes (as i am right now) that it's not worth the effort!]

Partial Resolution

To .htaccess, add:

    # Allow the modules path to be used by Drupal for the modules chapter.
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/modules/?$
    RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]

sed - replace text in multiple files

[Note: This page was unpublished from Drupal.org, and so became a martyr in the battle against pretending that unpublishing is a replacement or an aid to curating content. Rescued with the help of archive.org. If you agree that we should be deprecating, pointing forward, and curating our documentation, pitch in.]

Vision for Agaric

draft. The goal is to keep working on this document until it becomes a) inspirational, b) collective, and c) operational. Yes, that's right, this is supposed to inspire, be written by committee, and have a practical handle on the nitty-gritty details, all at once. Starting with unattainable goals takes the pressure off!

Agaric's model is Free and Open: free and open standards, free and open work and management, free and open source code, free and open documentation. We prefer to take on projects that match that vision.

unexplained double-slash-in-path page not founds

Seeing node and user pages with double slashes occasionally in my Drupal log as page not found.

Sometimes the referrer is listed as a page that redirects (i've got a crazy example.com/57 redirecting to node/67 thing going on in hook_init or somewhere unholy), sometimes a normal page, sometimes a page with even worse double slashes (which comes up page not found itself)

Questions for other Consulting Shops and Collectives and Freelancers

What kind of Drupal work do you most often do?

What kind of Drupal work do you most want to do?

Do you track your time?

If so, what tools do you use to track your time?

Do you track blatantly non-billable time such as reading Drupal Planet? If so, do you use the same system as for client/project work, and how do you categorize various non-work time?

Any conditions a client must meet for you to work with them?

What are your goals in life?

Do you see ways for your business to help you achieve these goals? If so, which ways?

Funded Free Software

A Drupal developer asked outright what people thought of attempts to monetize. I responded to icanlocalize's blog:

For-pay support is definitely a model with promise and worth trying. Try to avoid keeping key pieces online and proprietary though; that i think is bad for the ecosystem.
