The Sierra Wireless Developer Forum is approaching an impressive milestone — 25,000 posts!

To celebrate the occasion, we will give away three Amazon gift certificates in a random draw, open to the Forum members who contribute the last 300 posts up to the milestone:
• A €100 certificate drawn from among the members contributing posts #24,701 - 24,800
• A €200 certificate drawn from among the members contributing posts #24,801 - 24,900
• A €300 certificate drawn from among the members contributing posts #24,901 - 25,000

Each post receives one entry in the draw, so every post you write will increase your chances of winning. Spam posts will be excluded from the draw, but your posts don’t need to have technical content — indeed, we encourage you to chat around the water cooler about anything you care to share with the community.

Many thanks to all of you who have participated in making the Forum such a treasure trove of useful information!

We are doing our best, and getting better week after week. :slight_smile:

I’ve just released fixes and laking content on the developer zone as well (developer.sierrawireless.com). Feedback emails (good or bad) qualify for the prize as well! :wink:

just out of curriosity… can a normal user see the avarage posts per day somewhere?

There’s no such feature in phpBB AFAIK – anyone’s welcome to point out any good phpBB plugin!

But I can tell you we are currently running at around 40 posts per week (min/max are 30 - 110).

24,800 posts! :slight_smile:

CAA: now we run at about 60 posts a week.

and CAA said, let it be 61… :laughing:

nono, i was just curios, asking myself how long it might take till the 25k posts.
I don´t thing that it would help anyone to implement a phpbb plugin which shows it somewhere. I can´t remember, that i´ve looked for that information in any forum before… :wink:

more cloud? :smiley:

Yes, more cloud :smiley: (not more clouds) – I guess the long version would be something like: dematerialized distributed secured scalable storage of your devices data :wink:

What type of server infrastructure do you use yourself in your applications (if any)?
