Hello all, I would like some feedback on perhaps getting and irc channel or even ICQ to discuss the program. Please comment on how you folks would prefer to communicate outside of email. Thanks, Matthew McNaney |

I'd say IRC and/or the Developers Forum on SourceForge would be the fastest ways to talk. IRC would be good because it would be real-time chat and not waiting for someone to respond like in forums. > Hi, > > > How about the "Developers Forum" on SourceForge, that has for some > obscure reason been deleted ? ;) > >> -----Message d'origine----- >> De : php...@li... >> [mailto:php...@li...]De la part >> de Matthew McNaney >> Envoyé : lundi 26 mars 2001 15:55 >> À : php...@li... >> Objet : [Phpwebsite-developers] Communication >> >> >> Hello all, >> >> I would like some feedback on perhaps getting and irc channel or even >> ICQ to discuss the program.

I'll pitch in another two cents on the communications topic. IRC would be fine. My offer of setting up a private chat on one of my servers stands. But, now I have further question: What about a venue that provides whiteboard, document display, and other visual stuff in addition to the written word? I'm thinking that it would be very handy to be able to stand at a white board together on occasion. Maybe even setup for voice conference calling? Geoff -----Original Message----- From: php...@li...

Hey guys, Check out http://communityzero.com It's a great (free) tool for private conferencing/collaboration. Not only can you post documents, hold a forum discussion, and manage lists, but it also has instant messaging/chat. You can personalize your group to serve most purposes.

Re: [Phpwebsite-developers] CommunicationI haven't looked at communityzero. But, I like the idea of a third party service. I offered to setup a chat service on one of my servers. Now, someone else has offered to host one as well. So, when I say what follows, it is directed at me as well as everyone else. If we use something setup on one of our developers's sites, we are then tied into someone who may eventually lose interest or move on for another reason. Some may offer the services of their employer which could be revolked at any time. I own my servers and they are in a NOC, but that is a small consolation. So, I suggest that we use a third party service such as communityzero (which I haven't looke at) or, perhaps, Appalachian State can host Chat, whiteboard, etc. for us. They are the owner of the project, so we don't have to be concerned about them leaving the project. I'm still happy to host something if that is what we want to do. But, again, upon further reflection, it is probably better to use something hosted by Appalachian State or a thirdparty tool. Just as a reminder: I think that a whiteboard tool or something similar is really important for drawing class diagrams, ERD's, flowcharts, data flow diagrams, or whatever.

Re: [Phpwebsite-developers] CommunicationHi there,
Speaking from personal experience, I know that a group of X enthousiastic
developers is always trying to find the theoretically best technical
solution for collaboration. Then they start loosing the focus about what
it's really all about: getting things done. They spend countless E-mails
trying to find the optimal solution for collaborative work, team
development, and so on. The end result is that nothing gets done at all;
some of the developers might even start developing a collaboration tool in
order to get the work done better and faster... :)
Look, we have that fabulous tool called SourceForge. Why shall we not start
using that one and try to figure out all of its features before we look for
something different ?
Just agree on an IRC channel on any chat network (undernet or whatever) to
get the "real-time" collaboration thing right, and then let's start being
productive !
As for drawing ERD's, statecharts and any other diagram, I really wonder how
you could possibly do that in a productive way using a white-board type of
thing. I'm not particulary good at drawing an ERD schema containing 25
entities on a 400 by 300 pixel window using my mouse. Are you ? ;)

Well, if you want a decision made then here ya go. We're using IRC on EFNet. I can setup a channel, I have friends with botnets that will gladly help keep the channel from getting taken over by someone. We should have a meeting this week to get all the ideas on the table. After that we should then decide what to start with doing first from the list of ideas thats formed. We'll need someone to take notes of the meeting or log the whole session of the channel. Anyone good at taking notes??? After that is done we should then have another meeting a few days after that to formulate what to start doing first. This meeting would be for the dev team only to write in stone what we want to do with the project and WHAT to do first. I.E. Redo the database, leave it alone, use ADODB or PEAR or whatever, you get what I mean. I also run my own web hosting company (Xplozive Media Technologies) and have my own servers (two) at my disposal running off my own bandwidth using FreeBSD, so I have no trouble hosting anything that we need for the project.

That decision is fine with me. HOWEVER, I would like to ask for a clarification. My understanding is that Appalachian State University owns phpWebsite. In my mind, while suggestions, support, etc. should always be welcome, someone (or several) authorized by Appalachian State should in fact make decisions once they think they've received enough input. In any event, I'd like to know who has the authority to make the decisions, etc. I'm perfectly happy to have Jason stepup and take charge on this issue. (THANK YOU, JASON!) But, it's probably a good idea to know how decisions will be made before something more contentious comes up. Geoff -----Original Message----- From: php...@li...

My opinion is everything should go through Brian but we do need someone to finally make decisions on everything thats being discussed, I really don't care who does it as long as its being done. I'd rather piss someone off then sit around waiting for someone to say something :) And now Brian says something :)....anyways...thats my luck.... I'd still rather have a meeting of the group before March 30th...Myself I'd rather have one tomorrow night but I know thats probably not possible.... > That decision is fine with me. > > HOWEVER, I would like to ask for a clarification.

I believe Brian Brown is the head guy at ASU and he must not be available today. I don't think Appalachian State "owns" it if you want to use that word, but the project was definitely started and is hosted there. I think most of the ASU guys must not be unavailable today. I haven't heard from anyone of them.

This is just to let everyone know. We are not trying to ignore everyone. I promise! We try to take an active part but are hampered by many things. Brian Lambith, Adam, Charles and I are students and our schedules are changing every day. Brian Brown and Matt are ASU employees and have other commitments as well as phpWebSite. So that said we als do a lot of developing and not a lot of talking some days so we are quiet sometimes. :- ) Hope that clears up a few thing. PS, Brian Brown is the head guy with Matt second in command. I do a lot of the server stuff.

A quick note on what ill do once we start the meeting on IRC. Ill log the who event and then post it on the site after the event. The squirrelmail dev. team does this and it is very informative for those not on that team. I also say this meeting should be closed. Not to sound closed but we do not need anyone not on the dev. team there. It will be hard just to get everyone there and having extra people could get in the way. This is also what the IRC log on the website will be for. > Well, if you want a decision made then here ya go. We're using IRC on > EFNet.

On the topic of hosting services thank you all for offering. I do not want to step on anyone who has offered and/or has it already setup. I can set up any GPL package we may need on one of our servers at Appstate. That way we do not have to go to sprat places for different services. On the communication part I believe IRC is a good way to go for certain events. A IRC meeting would benefit us so we can all talk real time about developer info. That said we all live around the world and for all of us to show up at once is a big deal. This is why i say we only do the IRC stuff once in a while and we user the mailing list most of the time. > Re: [Phpwebsite-developers] CommunicationI haven't looked at > communityzero.

I think that would be good when we start coding and actually changing the system. I'd like a meeting now so we can all just see where everyone else is coming from and would like to take the project from where it currently is at. And I'd like to do this very soon if possible with the rest of the dev team. I know WebEX has the features your talking about, my company has a contract with them to do conferencing when we introduce new Oracle apps to our remote offices but it costs $$$ to use on a regular basis :) Unless you know of something we could use for free??? > I'll pitch in another two cents on the communications topic. > > IRC would be fine.

Up to four comcurrent users WebEX is free, so it could be easily used for specified projects. Do you know any WebEX official? Maybe they want to support an upcoming open source killer application...

Much better than having a developers-only web based forum on sourceforge (email is soo much more convenient/faster/reliable)... Regards, Karsten --=20 Why do we have to hide from the police, daddy?

I can do this too if we want to go web-based with the Chat instead of IRC. I've got med-chat (made in php) setup on my site now but I haven't used it other than to test it out and it seems great and pretty fast too. So I've got that at our disposal too if we wanted to use it...Anyways.... > I will offer to setup phpChat on one of my servers for the use of the > team at no charge. > > Geoff > > -----Original Message----- > From: php...@li... > [mailto:php...@li...]On Behalf Of > Matthew McNaney > Sent: Monday, March 26, 2001 7:55 AM > To: php...@li... > Subject: [Phpwebsite-developers] Communication > > > Hello all, > > I would like some feedback on perhaps getting and irc channel or even > ICQ to discuss the program.

I dunno phpChat, but all I php chats I ever used were a pure horror in performance far away from real time. I could offer a really fast password-protected java based chat room for phpWS developers on my company's web server. Any interest? Chris |
