Creeping along...

alexpgp"Creep" is an awful enough word in itself without tacking a modifier onto its front end, but three related alternatives—mission creep, function creep, and scope creep—all pretty much refer to some thing (a system, technology, mission, etc.) growing beyond its original scope.
As in the case of my poor l'il nameless Raspberry Pi, which has been running ownCloud, and which now is also running Dokuwiki (my wiki) and Bamboo Invoice (my invoicing method).
And as long as it's not trying to run them all at the same time—which can't happen, as I'm the only user—the board's performance remains pretty good, actually.
I tried getting Ampache running earlier, and succeeded in setting things up on the Pi, but I cannot find any reliable information on how to populate the Ampache database, and since my inbox is starting to see some action (five jobs arrived, two already sent back, with one of the remaining three looking like it'll require two full days to complete), that particular task has been put on the back burner for now.
Apropos of setting things up, I sent a dwonloaded Dokuwiki upgrade into my local cloud, from where I was able to get at it from the Pi and install it, which ought to count as the first "non-experimental" use of the cloud application since I started using it a little while back.
The skies over Houston continue to be cloudy, and the environment has been wet and cold.
Cheers...
