Hi,
I'm sorry to be so direct: I don't think you have really yet grasped
what it means to use open source software or to paricipate in an open
source community. In a cathedral world you could demand that the vendor
of your software answers all your questions - but here - things are
different. ...
1.) no problem with beeing direct, that's ok.
2.) i stated in the first few lines of my mail, that i am happily
willing to help working on the docs, if noone else is
currently in the issues i mentioned. Sorry, i should have
stated this more clearly ...
If you are looking for "the big picture" then I really do suggest you
read our book (sorry: shameless plug). You will gain a better idea of
Cocoon and how you can use which parts to do what.
Thanks for the tip. I will consider looking into this.
If you want to know which parts of Cocoon may help you in your new
application then go ahead and post more details on what you are looking
for. There is a lot of experience here and I am sure people will be able
to point you in the right direction. But if you are looking for people
to do your work for you - then you've come to the wrong place.
Sorry, i don't think YOU got me right here ;-) I am simply pointing out
things, that i found in cocoon, which i am puzzled about (thanks again
for your answer last week). I never said, it's anybody else who should
do this for me. But i am searching for people, who may have stumbled
into the same issues and possibly are interested in seeing such issues
solved. If i am on my own with my issues it makes no sense to touch the
cocoon sources, right?
If you think features in Cocoon are lacking then check out the code from
CVS, make it better and then submit your changes. There is a separate
mailing list for developers (cocoon-dev).
You are right. My last point (error reporting) does not directly belong
to the user-list. I will consider putting it into the developers list.
But as you warned (me see above) it might be no good idea though ;-)
Again, sorry for being so direct. I would be happy to provide more
information if you still do not understand how things work here.
Maybe you are right. I might not understand how things work. But i
never never never !!!! would ask others to make my job. (got me now?)
best regards, hussayn
