[Dynapi-Dev] Re: Which List?? / Admin

2001-12-09 Thread Robert Rainwater
Anyone who is listed as a developer on the project page has CVS rights. I don't believe there is anyway to restrict cvs use through Sourceforge for members of the project. Maybe Jordi can write up some mailing list rules/guidelines and post them to the list every so often to refresh people's me

[Dynapi-Dev] Which List?? / Admin

2001-12-09 Thread Michael Pemberton
Who has CVS rights? I think that we need to start getting more delegation going in the admin with regards to updates and the like. How many people on this list are members of the other lists (i take -help as a given)? I know that this list is aimed at doing that, but it has turned into a "co

Because they are management, and are thuslly computer illiterate.. to them one distro is the same as the next.. This is the type that is using NS 4.08 "because it works" no matter how often their admin's tell them to upgrade. - Original Message - From: "Bart Bizon" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> T

Granted. But here's another question. Why did you not develop your own branch independently of DynAPI. If you are coding a largescale commercial site, you should have absolute control over the code. With an opensource distro, you don't. I did exactly this with dynAPI1 ways back, as stuff was

First off, I don't have to be involved in many open-source projects to know about what the policies are. You don't have to do drugs to know they are unhealthy ;) And I didn't say you shouldn't test to make sure that a release is stable before commiting it. It only stands to reasons that you sh

I fully agree with the need to test ALL examples before applying code. I also agree with the need to make the examples a "testbed" for any future changes. I do, however, want to know when files started disappearing from the examples page. My distro is based on the files that existed when I s

Sure it's good practise to check before you commit a stable release. But it's up to the developer doing it. He/she is not beeing payed for it. And he is not bound by any requirements/warranties, that usually come with a commercial product. A LGPL product is not by any means a commercial product

A fix was checked in that does ont work on ALL systems. It was then release without checking. I don't give a fuck what you do with your own time. But I still don't think it's too much to ask for a cursory run through the examples. This was obviously not done as this critical error (not on browser

I feel sorry for your situation, but I think your comments are a bit harsh. A couple of things I have to point out: - Why was management being shown a "test" site without being warned that there may be some bugs? - Why was management able to trigger a bug that you hadn't noticed as part of y
