ExtND - Domino EXT Framework / News: Recent posts

We have had a great response and active community thanks to our association with the Ext project. Going forward, we will be posting all of our news and updates there as we believe this will serve the community better. Having one site for Ext.nd news and releases will mean one place to keep your eye on. It also means no redundant annoucements for us and we have been granted SVN space for our builds on the server (soon to be available).... read more

Bruce Elgort of OpenNTF.org fame and the Taking Notes podcast will be demonstrating the Ext.nd alpha at ILUG, in Dublin, Ireland on 5/24-5/25/2007. Team members Jack Ratcliff, Rich Waters and Eli Harris have built upon Jake Howlett's directory demo using some of the modified Ext code base to produce a stunning Ext.nd demo in less than a week - really only hours of effort.

What started with a couple of energized people has already grown into a team of 10+. So, as of March 14th, we have undertaken to get more organized and now have an Architect (Rich Waters), Senior Developer (Eli Harris), Tool Developer (Tim Tripcony) and Project Manager on board as well as 6 other highly skilled individuals who are eager to contribute.

We should soon have dates to share for when we will have working drafts of project documents to begin circulating. The core team is presently taking the approach of putting together a solid draft of our design documents before we present them for public consideration. We believe this will help us put more meat on the table and make better use of any peer review time we may be so fortunate to have. A more comprehensive high-level abstract should be available soon as well.... read more
