Anthony, I've opened an issue on that very task: https://github.com/pyjs/pyjs.org/issues/9
Basically, I compiled what we have already discussed about the "examples index" and "broken examples" roughly in May this year. 2012/8/13 C Anthony Risinger <[email protected]>: > yes quite a few examples are either crappy, outdated, or completely botched. > > ... this is just one of the many maintenance issues that has arisen > from a former "add add add everything anywhere" approach. > > i will probably be axing many examples in good time, or publishing > only a select few on the website. We shouldn't be repetitively condemning the past. I believe "no examples" are still worse than some that "usually work", or work partly. One task of examples still is giving an idea of what it is like using the technology in question. The several code pieces give an idea, and if they are from different people, we may see different approaches or coding styles, and learn from it. We should be careful on which efforts to throw away. Yes, I do agree on consolidating! What needs to be done is find out which examples roughly cover one and the same topic, and turn them into ultimately "great examples" that look great in both, presentation and source code. To start with we could cluster the existing examples to get a better overview of what is out there already. Peter --
