Hi!
About 15 days ago we started to develop an event system for slashcode.
The idea is that a user can receive and e-mail (irc/icq message in the
future) when something change in the slashcode system: a new story, a
new comment in a story, a new comment in a thread ...
We create two table, one to collect the events and other with the
subscription from the user yo the different events. The idea is that the
events are channels of information and the user can subscribe to those
channels with a filter, so the user can specify which kind of events and
in a kind of event, can use a filter to tell which evets of this kind
the user can get informed.
The main problem for this system is the scalability but with it, you can
get a information channel with the user closer so the user can obtain
more advantages from the services that you give.
I have downloaded the fry code and I have found a "Message" plugin that
it seems to walk in the same direction but it is undocumented. Can
somebody tells the objetive of this plugin?
Cheers
-- Alvaro
