17: Re: Quality of OpenACS (response to 1)
Posted by Caroline Meeks on
I have a minor social engineering suggestion. I'm not saying this is the solution to all of these problems., but I think its an easy way to increase code reuse.

I think many of us find ourselves doing something interesting and saying to ourself...I should really clean this up, generalize it and commit it to OpenACS. But of course you can't do it right then because you are in the middle of a client project.

Please when you have that thought goto the wiki page per package and write a brief note. Then at least someone has knows and has the option of asking you for a tarball to look at before they do something similar.

Here are two examples I did today:

https://openacs.org/xowiki/pages/en/calendar
https://openacs.org/xowiki/pages/en/photo-album

Please no one ask for details this week, we are in the middle of a client project. We will deliver the project to the client middle of next week then we'll try to get demos up and commit the code.

Al, Don, can you guys put pointers to your portal plans on the portals page?

Thanks
Caroline
