Now, if we really want to lower the barrier of entry for would-be developers, there's one thing we could do...
Comment the code. We should have a commenting marathon, where everyone takes some time to go through all of the code that they know how it works, and add commentation. Our code commentation is sorely lacking in some places... I think that's one factor that makes diving into the codebase seem a bit intimidating to new developers. Better documentation also reduces the chances of bugs and makes it easier to write good code. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download BIRT iHub F-Type - The Free Enterprise-Grade BIRT Server from Actuate!
