Code Project Project (CPP) [UPDATED 5/31]
-
Well, to be honest, with the number of people getting involved here things could get UGLY really fast.:-D I don't know if that is a good thing. :~
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.

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

A bit late i guess but count me in too :)
I always think that the idea of a compiler that compiles another compiler or itself is rather incestuous in a binary way. - Colin Davies My .Net Blog

I have now lost all respect for you. Just kidding. :-D "When a man sits with a pretty girl for an hour, it seems like a minute. But let him sit on a hot stove for a minute and it's longer than any hour. That's relativity." - Albert Einstein

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.

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 :)

On track! :) Paul Watson wrote: The down side is it is web-dev and I know not everyone here is interested in that. I'm interested, but I don't have Windows 2000/XP, so I can't test ASP .NET stuff. That doesn't mean I can't code them, though.
