Hi Julien,
I think it might be a bit challenging and early to start creating teams
specialized in certain functions this early on.
Maybe team is not the word, we could tell "work group". Work group will
probably contain same people.
We did not yet define what
we're going to do nor do we have a real feel for the size of this job and
the best way to split efforts, not to mention that some of the tasks are
probably dependent on each other.
Yes, it was a suggestion. And as you mention, tasks are dependent on
each other. That's why I wanted to go further.
If I may suggest instead, we need to perhaps go through the tasks
themselves and see what needs to be accomplished. To that end, I would
focus on the deliverables themselves in the beginning such as:
- Identify the major milestones or objectives
- Discuss and decide upon the best methodology for implementation of the
above objectives
- Decide on a collaboration platform (in addition to what exists) if any.
- Dive into code directly and just hand off tasks to volunteers who find
them interesting / appealing from the team
Once we get the project into momentum and you have enough interested and
dedicated people then you can put some structure and specialization
into it.
Right !
Now to that end, I would suggest the following major milestones as
necessary
- Integration of bootstrap and its dependencies to the framework,
specifically into the widget system
For this point I suggest to work on this way : Create tool to delegate
HTML widget structure (and other structure) into theme framework.
To be clear, I suggest to not integrate bootstrap only but modify the
framework to allow any other HTML/CSS frameworks integration without
modifying the OFBiz framework.
But we'll do it for bootstrap first.
You don't need to modify the framework. The screen widgets allow you to
substitute alternate macros for the rendering engine. See widget.properties.
