<br>
The community website (<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.xerte.org.uk">www.xerte.org.uk</a>) is technically up and
and running. I will try to work on it next week and hope to show
you all the first version in a week or two (very basic version)
If you agree then we can try to release it together with the new
1.8 version of XOT. <br>

<pre wrap="">Yes, I think this is just growing pains as well. I don't want the deadline to sound like we are imposing one: that's not really what I'm driving at, I'm just trying to coordinate several activities, and resources here are scarce. In time we will have people's capacity to look at stuff again. Maybe it's better to be much more incremental, rather than trying so much at once. There has been loads of activity in the last six months, and I'm really grateful for it. I'm hopeful that the PHP will eventually really stabilise - and we can't think of anything it doesn't do (!).
I think in the end I'm starting to think of the Xerte Project belonging to the community, rather than to Nottingham - at least that's the direction of travel, with us contributing in part along with everyone else. Our new site is very minimal, just the old one, re-focusing on toolkits as the main product and sorting out some nomenclature re: Xerte 3 which just confuses everyone, and I'm hopeful we get the new community-based site off the ground in the next six months as well.
1.9 will be the first html5 output. I hope, for October.

I just have loads on of my own stuff to do (and I don't get anything
directly from XOT). The code has been out there for testing for four
months after all.
I think we sort of need a roadmap though - because now we've got a
deadline that is Nottingham's and it is defining everyone's work. But
the majority of the work here isn't being done by Nottingham (and is
for free). At some point a Nottingham person is going to have to start
coding on this again, and it'll be a bit weird (because we've got
different coders doing different things, that database queries are
sort of PDO in some parts, and not PDO in other parts).
I get the feeling this is just a growing pain, but we could do with
some thoughts on say
What will tag / branch 1.9 be?
What sort of coding standards are there (the only thing really I would
say is text strings for internationalisation are upper case - but some
of the commits are indent changes - so are we going drupal like? I
don't mind what we do - it just makes sense for people looking to
commit changes they know it'll work. Once we got a commit for the PHP
header change for the export code, but I never committed it because it
broke Nottingham's export function. This isn't a big deal, but the
idea of nightly build, or a test version before approval makes sense?
Some sort of PHP doc commenting per file (@file version 1.1 timestamp
(unix time at that point?). At the moment there aren't a lot of people
supporting the PHP side - and as David says bits are him and bits are
me - but I don't understand all of his as well - so there is a point
where support will get awkward.
If everyone uses bugfixes.txt as well that helps a lot, so all fixes
are explained simply and listed for people to use. That way everyone
can be on the most up to date version without worrying about anything.
I know the SVN does it, as does the RSS feed - but it's not obvious or
tied to the install in any place.

OK, I'll start doing that.
Who shall we assign particular types of bugs to?
I'm up for anything to do with templates, and the xerte stuff.
Volunteers for other types? Pat and David for all the php?
I'll do whatever I can - but some bugs will require Pat's knowledge of how
everything fits together - I have minimal knowledge about how the flash
stuff works (for example)
