Hi Andy, I haven't really talked about this with anyone else, but my preferred option would be to keep it all under one umbrella (www.castleprojects.org/screencasts), thoughts anyone else ?
Regarding creating a site using MonoRail as a sample, yes please, we need that :) Btw, there are already a few suggestions: http://castle.uservoice.com/forums/16605-official-castle-project-feedback-forum/suggestions/353236-use-castle-to-run-castleproject-org http://castle.uservoice.com/forums/16605-official-castle-project-feedback-forum/suggestions/418905-include-samples-in-each-project-s-release Also, you can follow a discussion going on re the redesign of the web sites at http://groups.google.com/group/castle-project-devel/t/94d9850fef260b7e Cheers John On Mar 2, 9:54 pm, andypike <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi John, > > I didn't know that you were changing the website so that may change > things and I'm happy to be guided by you guys. > > My plan was to create a dedicated site and allow community user to > submit there screencasts.
