    I actually tossed around the idea of a .NET engine that we could write plug-ins for, and which could battle each other and use primitive AI to attack, defend, build, repair and form clans. And then Microsoft built Terrarium :mad: cheers, Chris Maunder

    That would be a kick arse thing to do, even if MS did it already.

        Using P2P it would make it easier collect information than if you were to use Google, because many people would be apart of this. The AI part of this would be determining the subjects of the content. I have thought of something like this but the main concerns are: performance, and people with dialup (who could that be i wonder :|) -Steven "the yellow dart" Hicks

            What about a defect-tracker that have both a web-frontend and a winforms frontend. Or........ With all that talk about source-version-systems (SourceSafe vs. CVS) what about writing one, that is easy to use, easy integration into VS... Basically SourceSafe without the bugs in that product... - Anders Money talks, but all mine ever says is "Goodbye!"

              Perhaps we'll let the team leader decide how to handle team members. I also see us splitting the volunteers between maybe 3 projects. Obviously not everyone can work on the best.

                                      Splitting up the volunteers would mean that we lose some of the momentum that we now have. I would rather finish off one project and first then start a new project? If we split up, nowbody will then be interested in what we do, compared to now when everybody wants to know what is happening. If we have only one project we can also discuss it in the lounge and it might be fun, but with many projects going on, the discussion would be more boring, I think, because you dont know what the others are talking about. jhaga CodeProject House, Paul Watson wrote: ...and the roar of John Simmons own personal Nascar in the garage.

I would rather finish off one project and first then start a new project? If we split up, nowbody will then be interested in what we do, compared to now when everybody wants to know what is happening. If we have only one project we can also discuss it in the lounge and it might be fun, but with many projects going on, the discussion would be more boring, I think, because you dont know what the others are talking about. jhaga CodeProject House, Paul Watson wrote: ...and the roar of John Simmons own personal Nascar in the garage.

                                        That's a good consideration. We'll probably end up starting with the GUI Library, as it's hands down the most popular.

                                          Three ideas. 1. The idea that Chris Maunder mentioned. The good thing about that project is that it is doable, practical. It can consist of a foundation layer and then phases as new controls are built. Results can be quickly achieved which is vital to the success of a project team like this. The down side is it is web-dev and I know not everyone here is interested in that. 2. A code snippet library sharing app and service, thing. Naturally with a Visual Studio add-in. There are a lot of them out there but after having spent a week downloading and testing most of them the common problem is they are nice but hardcore programmers will hate them. You know, the command line type of guy. Most of them are a pain to setup and have a bunch of features that hardcore okes will never use. It needs to be something really slick, something focused and direct that works like a hardcore chap expects it to. 3. A project management system. Phase tracking, bugs, document storage, client feedback area etc. Not a source control system, but a system for the management of a project that both managers/clients and the developers are happy with. We all bitch about management of projects, so lets do something about it for once.


                                          Also for the project in general, especially the first time out, I would like to say; Think small, think focused, think useful. An operating system, a game? Come on guys, we know how that will go, it won't. We need something that will do one or two things very, very well. Something that can start small, a foundation layer, be released, see results and then can be extended as needed. It must be attainable. Management of this is going to be a nightmare. People get bored, go on holiday, disagree, fail to deliver or just disapear. Splinter groups will form. So if we do something small and focused the first time it sets a good precedent for later, larger projects. Lets rather get our internals working before we try and fix the world :)
