"Things Are Looking Up"
|
On at least one front, anyway: I am informed by our gracious host Dave that we'll be migrating to a new virtual server sometime in the next couple-three days, which will mean loads more disk space. That means - bandwidth permitting - I can probably start putting the audio files I had to pull down to open up disk space back sometime early in the new year, and get started filling in the backlog of works that have come out since we ran out of disk, as well. Actually, I've already started on the production side of that second part. The audiobook versions of Le Droit du Dragon and A Fire to be Lighted are finished, and I'm about two-thirds of the way through Goodbye and Hello, with Fire Hazards and possibly a few of the recent minis to follow. As a kind of warmup exercise, I started with Agreement in Principle, which I was able to upload before we get our new disk because it's not very big compared to, say, the four- or five-hour extravaganza Goodbye and Hello is likely to be once I'm finished with it. On a practical note, the migration may cause momentary disruptions in DNS resolution to the site for a little while when it goes live, though I gather that as part of his preparations for the move, Dave is shortening up TTLs and the like so that the outdated record won't persist long after the switch. So if, sometime around New Year's, things get a little weird, that's probably what it is. --G. -><- Benjamin D.

Looking forward to it, I love the audio versions when I'm stuck doing OS updates every month, they make the time pass a lot quicker. And I have some to do when I get back to work, assuming I don't have to push them due to jury duty... And short TTLs are your friend :) Offsides [...] in order to be a realist you must believe in miracles. -- David Ben Gurion EPU RCW #π #include <stdsig.h> |

Awww... and I was so looking forward to your attempt (I really was too!) :( Offsides [...] in order to be a realist you must believe in miracles. -- David Ben Gurion EPU RCW #π #include <stdsig.h> |

Update: We won't have enough room for the many-hour monsters until the server move (and I haven't finished recording G&H, in any event), but I have been able to make a little space to ring in the new year with a bit of an audio Mini-Story blowout. In addition to the above, you can now find audiobook editions of A Bride Too Far, And So They Met, and Blue Harvest. The full list of things recorded, in progress, or on the queue, all of which should be appearing shortly after we move to our new virtual home, currently stands as follows: - Laura Kinney and the Maiden in the Ice (as previously discussed, there will be no Welsh accents)
- S5E3 Le Droit du Dragon
- S5DS01 Honeymoon by the Sea (not a complete re-record; bugfixes and new title segments to go with the Diqiu Suite renaming)
- S5DS02 What's Past Is Prologue (ditto)
- S5DSE01 A Fire to be Lighted
- S5DS03 Goodbye and Hello, As Always
- S5DS03 outtake Someone to Talk To
- S5DSE03 Fire Hazards
In addition, I plan to re-up some of the earlier stuff that I had to take down a few months ago when the disk crisis really started to pinch. With the probable exception of the Iron Age files, which are of such appalling audio quality in places that I may just re-record them sometime. Happy New Year, --G. -><- Benjamin D.
