Software For Industrial Market Metrics:

The web pages on this site are served by the Apache Web Server. The web pages were composed by using emacs, which was written by Richard M. Stallman, with the html-helper-mode.el macros written by Nelson Minar. The web pages were validated for HTML syntax compliance using Niel Bowers' weblint program. The links were verified using Rick Jansen's webxref program. SGML ISO8879/HTML 4.0 compliance was verified using the World Wide Web Consortium's on line validation service, and Dave Raggett's HTML TIDY as a verification tool. The NdustriX mailing list is hosted by John Conover, using procmail and smartlist to distribute the mailing list. Both procmail and smartlist were written by Stephen R. van den Berg. The mailing list archive's search engines use the rel program suite, written by John Conover. The site is remotely administered with rsync incremental file transfer over the ssh secure shell. The site pages are maintained with RCS, the Revision Control System available from GNU. All software is freely available and distributed as source code, at no charge. The site is hosted by Rahul.net, and runs on Red Hat Linux.
