Hi Gaetan, just reading up on the mailing list, thanks for your initial question. I'd like to add a few comments, as your comments may have been a bit misleading. ;-)

Sorry for the noise. Of course there is a drop in SVN activity since the 0.8 release. We have recently focused on other parts of the project that are equally as important (and made more sense during vacation time). Thomas has gone into details already about the different tasks, so let me just name a few: wiki documentation (both manual and project pages), bugzilla reorganization and updating, project plan updates, 3 new team members, and so on ... I thought the weekly status updates would cover much of the project and provide close, detailed and up-to-date info? :-( In those blog posts we repeatedly talked about all core developers leaving for summer vacation after the qooxdoo 0.8 release. Tomorrow is the first day (!) since August that all core developers are back from vacation. I'm also a bit puzzled about your comment regarding the activities that caused a drop in early qooxdoo 0.8 development end of 2007. IIRC, from the very beginning of our activities there were roadmap updates and posts to the mailing list about the expected delays. Of course, at that time we couldn't talk about details, as much of the work was related to GMX.com, which was to be officially announced a few months later. Anyway, I think qooxdoo is one of the most transparent and "open" JavaScript frameworks (weekly status updates, roadmap planning, public bug and enhancement tracking, public SVN, qooxdoo-contrib, etc.). Everybody is also welcome to send any project related questions and suggestions to me directly, I'd be glad to answer, :-) Andreas -- Andreas Ecker Project Lead http://qooxdoo.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ qooxdoo-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/qooxdoo-devel
