[Firebird-website] website - status

[Tjelvar E. <ep...@po...>]

Hello,
I'm interested about the current status of any plans of rebuilding the
firebird homepage. Currently I'm working on a project and the spinoff
could make up a good framework for a multi-user doc-platform.

{
Basically it's a db with an items table, tree structure where item can be
an item (wiki), parent (spec of  child listings), and clild (properties).
Multilingal (utf8), xhtml-strict and web-backend with roles.
}

I don't want to interfer with any ongoing projects, and if you have it
all figured out all ready, I just wish you all the luck.

(
Also, is there any plans of replacing the lists/yahoo-groups?
Guess you all know that phpbb3 now supports fb2. ;-)
)

All the best,
T Eriksson

Is in phpBB supported mail discussion? AFAIK not. So removing
yahoogroups will be step back (and what about history...).

You sure got a point,
However history issue could be resolved with a curl script.

Well, there are plans to rework the website, but after we'll figure it 
out. There are some organizational changes underway that would certainly 
result in new requirements for website organization and content. Before 
we'd know them, any significant change on the website would be just 
waste of time and energy.

No, there isn't any such plans to replace mailing lists with web forums. 
Web forums sucks. E-mail is quicker, and anybody who prefer pull 
delivery instead push delivery can use list mirror in newsgroups instead.

Guess that's a rather personal opinion. Your're a handfull of hard  
core firebird gurus,
your knowledge is a treasure, but for the uninitialized it's another  
deal.
Uncategorized forums, need to register, owned by yahoo,

I see lots of space for improvment.
(Some people think (as Nokia) that mail as a dinosaurie belonging to  
the telnet and gopher branch)


> Well, there are plans to rework the website
Excellent. Plans may turn into result.
One last poke: I belive the layout/content should be appealing to  
mangagers as well. That's where
the decision is taken and fb will take marketspace.


All the best,
