CPP open for discussion
-
I'm going to be working on the article layout pages for a couple of days so if you want to discuss anything about CPP here you can do so now. BTW, I have heard from Chris M. and he said we should use the existing article system already in place since he has not been able to work on a project system. So there won't be any polling available except within message boards. Also, the only mailing list that can be setup is for anyone on the author list. -- Anders Molin has offered up access to free bug tracking and he'll be setting that up for our 3 projects until his Defect Tracking system is finished. Thanks Anders! -- As far as source control, we may have to do this offsite or like I mentioned before, maybe a source manager can handle it all. Any ideas? -- When I get the page layouts finished I'll either post the articles myself with the PL as a co-author or I will send them to the PL for posting. Then you guys can go wild.

Ok, fair enough, I guess we can live with that ;) Jason Henderson wrote: Also, the only mailing list that can be setup is for anyone on the author list. IMHO this is not good. What you say is just that everyone on the author list get a mail notification for each new post. We really really need a maillist where the team can discuss ideas without the messageboard. I like the idea of using CP instead of another site, like sourceforge, but this one really suck! I have my own mailserver and I guess I'm going to set up a maillist for my project, if the other PL's want one just let me know. When all this started Chris wanted us to keep it within CP, and I'm 100% for that, but a maillist and a bugtracker is needed, and if that means we have to do those 2 things off CP, then we'll just do that. - Anders Money talks, but all mine ever says is "Goodbye!"

Absolutely. I don't think he would mind in these situations. A mailinglist isn't really offsite since it goes through email and not the web. If you have a web interface I would suggest adding a CP link at least. I think he was more concerned about setting things up on sourceforge or having a yahoo group where everyone went off CP to discuss things.

Setting up mailing lists now. Bugtracking isn't an option yet but I'm open for suggestions. We have the machines and the bandwidth and if there's a drop-in tracking system we can use then let me know. cheers, Chris Maunder
