Re: django-threadedcomments app

[Margie]

Ok, gotcha, thanks!  One final question - on your web page you have a
tutorial and it references a link to the final product of the tutorial
at:

http://www.eflorenzano.com/threadedcomments/example/

However that link seems to be broken.  If this is something easy to
fix, that would be nice!

Yes, it should work just fine.

It is in working condition right now, and can be used, but no I'm
sorry I don't have an ETA on when it will be in a releasable state
right now with docs and examples.

Don't worry, the base functionality is working just fine.  I haven't
used it in production yet, but I got some prototypes up and running
and I think it's pretty solid.

Seems like a good fit to me!

For what it's worth, I recommend just using the 0.5.X release for now,
because it works just fine and other people in the community have
familiarity with it besides just myself (for example, most people
using the comments in Pinax use threadedcomments 0.5.X).  When I do
finally release the new version, I'll definitely provide a migration
script.

Thanks,

Re: django-threadedcomments app

[Margie]

Hi Eric,

Thanks for the info.  A couple questions:

  * Does the .5 version work with django 1.1?
  * Do you have any sort of ETA on when you think the GitHub version
will be ready for public use?  Is it in a form now that it could
actually be used?  IE, if I am willing to dive in and look at the
code, does the GitHub code have a reasonable level of functionality or
is it completley torn up and non-working?

Just trying to get an idea if I should go for the new or stick with
the old.  I'm fine with diving in and trying to fix bugs as needed,
but obviously it is better if there is a base level of functionality
working.

Thanks very much for the package, it seems very nice.  My goal is to
provide a comment interface to my users that is similar to the google
groups interface - it seems that threadedcomments is very well suited
to that, do you agree?

Re: django-threadedcomments app

[Eric Florenzano]

I moved development over to GitHub [1] and have actually gone ahead
with that big rewrite (thanks also to Honza and team Ella, as well as
Thejaswi Puthraya).  It's a total rewrite with very little common
code, so none of the documentation is up to date.  The old 0.5.X
version is stable enough, and in widespread enough use, that I think I
will continue to support that branch of code for the foreseeable
future with bugfixes and branches.  I'll probably support that even
after I officially release the rewritten comments app.

That being said, I am no longer using django-threadedcomments in any
current projects of mine, so my motivation for maintaining it is a bit
lower than it was when I was responsible for its use in production.
I'm still dedicated to maintaining it, but it's a lower priority for
me.

Hope that helps!

Thanks,
Eric Florenzano

django-threadedcomments app

[Margie]

Anyone know any status on the django-threadedcomments app?  The google
group on it seems to be inactive.  The last update I see about it is:

March 31, 2009: Released version 0.5 of the application and moved.
This is the last of this line--the next release will be a large
rewrite to use the comment extension hooks provided in Django 1.1 and
will be backwards incompatible.

Anyway, just wondering if anyone here knows anything more?
