tldr; let's aim to make OGV a finished product by iterating on the present
work product.

A lot of features in OGV have already been incorporated including
authentication (including 3rd party logins), authorization, dashboard
features, a variety of views to choose from for the models, and a
foundation for sharing and following the models and design owners (which
btw includes comments, likes, following etc.).

I sincerely oppose the idea of shifting all these functionalities onto a
new framework. We have already shifted from PHP to a Javascript framework
in the past, and yet the project has not turned up as a complete product.

In my view this year's OGV project should focus majorly on integrating all
the code written in the past (the one using Meteor framework), with all the
functionalities up and running, and finally (and probably more importantly)
deployment. It will also include some design and implementation changes to
make things more efficient and production ready.

Meteor is a javascript based framework, and adding functionalities will be
equally (and probably much more) easier in this case.
There might be some "bad points" regarding a particular approach or using
some framework, but there are always solutions to problems and that's what
we all as developers work for :D. Moreover, we are far ahead from the
specification phase of OGV as a product.  A lot of effort has already been
put up, and almost everything is already up there (not yet in the main
branch though).

I don't say this because I have been a part OGV development or I am really
obsessed with the code I have written or anything :P , but just to make
things more efficient and productive :D!

Cheers!
