Hi all (and apologies for crossposting)
I'm hoping to write a special report for the Signpost [1] about the
state of Labs as we head into the post-Toolserver era (how people are
finding it, its future). I'd also like to write an "obituary" for the
Toolserver.
All your thoughts, comments, and ideas are welcome via public and
private communication, though I can't promise to fit them all in! The
reports, if accepted for publication, would air at some point over the
next month.
As you may be aware, I've been both a Toolserver and Labs developer,
so I've an idea of what people will want to say, but do try to
surprise me :)
Despite some gotchas when moving my scripts and missing parts in docs on
Labs... I actually might surprise you that I like Labs ;-). I miss
having a personal page and having a central place for assets, but I
think that it's good I was forced to split projects. Someone could take
over any of them easier.
So I was forced to worked differently but I think it's a good direction.
Some Jenkins-like tool might be helpful I guess for supporting more
tools, but... many devs like command line and GUI is evil ;-), so I
guess that won't happen.
Regards,
Nux.
