Pro Bono

This week I worked on a number of pro-bono projects.

Today I revamped the Douglas Elementary and Annex Parent Advisory Council web site. I’m using it and other pro-bono sites to refine a suite of CSS templates that will be used in some other application work I am doing.

Earlier in the week, working with Families for School Seismic Safety, I customized a bulk email routine to send out a package of nicely formatted emails to parents and politicians.

Along the way I found and resolved a bug in how I’d been handling multipart/mixed multipart/alternative email messages (html/text mail with file attachments). I ended up rewriting my old mimetools based code using the newer email package which made the task very straightforward.
