No response from Harald | I failed to get Changi working as expected and emailed the author twice, but didn't get a response. |
Sometimes Harald is very busy with Changi and other projects
and refuses to check his email. There are also questions, which would
require some time to answer, time Harald can't spend right now.
He may come back to you later.
On the other hand, he often spent a lot of effort to try to help users, writing long emails. But it happened very often, that such emails are bounced. This is really very frustrating. Please ensure, that your return address is set up properly before sending Harald an email. Or, even better, subscribe to the mailing list and send your questions to this forum. |
Nam June Paik | The author of Changi uses a quote of Nam June Paik in his signature. I don't want to be a total ignorant and therefore I didn't ask anybody, who he is. | You can ask without being told an ignorant. Harald Kipp copied this quote from an art journal found once on his kitchen table. Except this quote nothing else had been written in this journal about Nam June Paik. But, because Harald isn't an ignorant, he knows at least that June Paik is a (famous?) video artist. |
What does '... liebe Gott boese' mean. | It's kind of Pidgin German and means, that God will become angry. | |
egnite.com | Changi is available at egnite.com. It looks like a typo for ignite, but what does it mean in German? What kind of company is egnite anyway? |
The typo is an intentional one, a combination of electronic
and ignite. It took Harald Kipp several days to find this name,
because he insisted to get a short company name not being occupied by
a domain name at InterNic. Unfortunately, his other favourites,
ibex and emagine were already registered as domain names.
The name of his old company is Harald Kipp Internet Systeme, which had been selected to fulfill German laws requiring the full name of the owner in the name of unlimited companies. This company still exists. In July 1997 a new company was founded. This is a limited company, which official name is egnite Software GmbH. |
