The list looks good VI! :)

What about integrating a plugin system? I just read about the Reflection API few weeks ago and Autoloading a few days ago. I think that could also be a great learning exercise and it would just be that little extra spark that an open source project needs :)

We could do usergroups also, with permissions, so the admin can put users into usergroups, and different usergroups are allowed to upload x amounts of images. Assigning moderators can edit other ppl comments, delete other ppl comments, delete other ppl images, etc.. w.e the admin desides that the moderator usergroup is allowed to do.

Also, when managing images, you should also be able to edit the description for it..

We really need to get a host up and running..
i have not heard anything from wildhoney
so i am thinking of maybe we might install a vb project tools on a different host?..

what you guys think,
because we can not go on like this we wont get anywhere
there is a lack of communication in this group, (time reasons)

So, Serk... might be able to host?..

Why do we need to set up project tools before we can start?

I am well aware of this, but my point was: do we need DB abstraction, is it going to be that big? do we really need support for mssql, oracle etc i for one would say no, support for such abstraction is only really needed in the paid software domain.

Also there is more than one type of free software,.

good question, i was more thinking of setting up a host so we can test the code?
or something ;)

Regrading source type: Open Source was what it was meant to be, its also the most logic approch considering its the community who make it.

Ideas: I wouldn't mind the gallery, but I think doing a project tools program/project would be abit cooler because we can keep using it while developing on it, but hey thats just me.

I recommend leaving that for the next version, debugging will be a giant as it is.

If no offer is given by the time I get back from work, I will host. I will need to point another domain to my server though so it may be tomorrow I can host it.

It would be wise to have source control from square one.

Also, don't forget VBProjects needs vbulletin -- hence why I suggested hosting it here.

Does vBprojects have source control?

__________________

I'm starting to question the option of the Gallery since it's rather large to product in a prof way. The project manager might be cooler indeed. And because it's more specific and complex about data (in a way) it might be very intressting to code.

This is going to sound kinda crazy but..

why not make a php tutorial api :)

you all said it is for a greater cause

so this is it ;P


Or why not just start a company ?
a web-Dev company or maybe a ad space company or something like that :D i am just coming with ideas ;)

No it doesn't, would it be wise to use Trac then?

vBulletin Project Tools have support for "patches" and "diff" but thats about it...

Source control is a must, I don't know enough about individual software to recommend one. Especially since there is only a small chance we will be able to install it on our server and work from there. I will so some digging tonight.

Projects source control is as simple as updating the issue, IE you can include a current version (what the fixed version is, what bug the version happened in).

Remember, Projects is about assisting with managing bugs, updates, requests. It does not actually hadnle the maintaince of the code. I think it is useful though, because say if a bug is found, in VB, the bug would be listed and could have the following:

affected versions: < 1.2
patched versions: 1.3
bug status: closed

sorry, a little early for me to reply

but yeah, ill host.
or VI, its up to you guys.
If VI has a system working with FTP and HTTP then use him because im having trouble getting FTP to use another port.

Seraskier, have you tried google for help?

yeah ive got some information
i do have an idea that might work.

Ill try it as soon as i can.

Try the server version of FileZilla, I've set it up before and might be able to help you set it up Seraskier =)

Its a shared host, so it works, but I dont have control over it. I go back to my argument on why a shared host is probably best.

Either way I'm happy. It may be a day or two till I can get the new domain up, I believe I have one sitting around but I am not sure.
