I think the care2x should give us a more active way to know about its
progress and to participate.
you have a blog http://care2x.wordpress.com/
where all the news is available for all the changes happening in th code
two mailing lists one at sourceforge
care2002-developers@lists.sourceforge.net
and the other at http://groups.google.com/group/care2002
a bugtracker at http://care2002.sourceforge.net/mantis/my_view_page.php
and a forum at http://n2.nabble.com/care2x-f1213252.html
This is getting strangely (needless?) complex.
Back in 2002, it seemed like a good idea to base the code development at
the SourceForge. Six years latter, there are easier, simpler and much
more reliable ways to store Open Source code.
I do not know if you develop code using Ubuntu, but, at least, it seems
that you also use it. Ubuntu's code development is based in what must be
the best and most clever way to maintain code in 2008: The Launchpad
<https://launchpad.net/>
Unlike SourceForge Launchpad is really free (and, among other things,
your emails will not be filled up with publicity); is based on Bazaar,
arguably one of the best CVS at this moment; it has mailing list
support, bug track support and all the other amenities without the need
to setup and maintain all the supporting software. All what is needed
to maintain both the developers and the users happy is there ready to use.
i don't know what do you mean with participate.
From <www.merriam-webster.com>: participate - to take part, to have a
part or share in something
Could it be, to be able to:
- check out the latest code developments,
- easily report bugs,
- easily contribute improvment suggestions?
In an Open Source project, after the code is released, the most
important success factor is user participation.
It just does not matter if the users are developers or not.
What matters are their experience reports, their description of the
problems that they discover while using the software and, if we are,
lucky, their ideas on how to improve.
There is no programmer clever enough to have better and more creative
ideas than a healthy community of users. And while not being your case,
there is no clever code written by a dumb programmer.
Regards,
M.
