No advantage at all - but it's there as an option.

Is there any advantage to using your (or your ISP's) servers over SourceForge? 
Wouldn't you rather have SourceForge foot the bill? It sounds like the setup 
is almost exactly the same.

My server (rather my ISP's server) is PHP and MySQL. You couldn't have an 
account. I'd have to vet the code before installing it. However, I wouldn't 
have a problem maintaining the code once the first version was up.

My goal is to just get the next release done (I don't know if that
deserves a :) or :( )

I thought this was great software back when it was < 1.0, and a lot
of stuff (including Phil's v 4.0 and Detlev's 'eric') is going to
make it even better. I'd like to see sip, PyQt and PyKDE get wider
use and recognition.

I probably average privately an inquiry per month from people who
want to build on top of PyQt/PyKDE, but a lot of that is still
proprietary stuff. That's in addition to stuff like Gerard's
package and some other things on sf that occasionally get mentioned
here.

I think it's a great idea. I'd also be interested in seeing any
small programs/snippets that people write to test out PyQt or PyKDE
classes - I'd be happy to include PyKDE related stuff (like
example/demo stuff) in the PyKDE distribution.

The only other thing I'd suggest is either some review of scripts
to try and make sure they're not mailicious, or else a
notice/disclaimer (added to the download?) that advises people to
do that.

I'm only an "honorary" admin on the sf/pykde site - if the programs
to be posted are small, it might be easier to mail them (tar.gz or
zip) to the actual maintainers rather than trying to co-ordinate an
sf upload.

Jim,

Thanks for the offer.

Is the server running Linux? Would you mind if I used Apache and mod_perl with 
a PostgreSQL database to get this done? Would you mind if I was able to have 
a normal user account on the system?

I think it is a great idea to have something like this hosted outside of 
SourceForge because we can have so much control over it. The only worry is 
that if it gets terribly busy, will it impose on your ISP bill? I always like 
using SourceForge for bandwidth munching things because the bill ends up in 
VA's lap.

Anyway, I have a few people who are willing to do this using PHP on the 
SourceForge site, so if there is any reason you would be uncomfortable doing 
this, don't be afraid to let me know.

Yes, unfortunately, this doesn't work well in practice. Just send the files to 
me, or make them available from some server somewhere so that I can download 
them.

For small software packages, like a widget or an app that you threw together 
that is pretty simple, you won't have to go to great lengths and be so 
serious about it. Just send what you got (or put what you have someplace I 
can get it) and let me know what it does.

Take a look at openzaurus.org, which is coded in php. Since I'm very
active in this project, I know the guy who did this. Maybe we could
take some of this code?

Do possibly mean http://sourceforge.net/project/admin/?group_id=61057

Jonathan and Jim are the project managers there.

Jonathan, Jim, what do you think about a contribution package section.
If somebody want to upload something, just post the details in this list
file name: 
package name:
package version:
release notes:
changelog (opt.):

and upload to anonymous@ftp://upload.sourceforge.net

Hopefully some project member picks it up quickly enough, and publish
the thing in download section.

Comments?

I can offer web space, but there is still the problem that a front end needs

This is really neat. I am in charge of pykde.sf.net, at least the 
administration part. I think it would be great to have this stuff on the 
site. It is no problem at all to put your programs in the downloads section.

Here are the options, and what is holding back each one. If someone has 
something they can donate (time or servers) to get one of these going, let me 
know and I'll work with you.

Option one is to have some sort of system where one could sign up, post 
scripts, rate other's scripts, comments on each other's scripts, offer 
patches, etc..., all hosted on SourceForge. This would be a lot of work, and 
it needs to be written in PHP. I can't help with this because I don't know 
PHP, I don't have the time to learn it, nor the time to implement something 
with it. If anyone knows PHP, or wants to learn it, and has time to do the 
development, let me know and I'll help get you set up.

Option two is to host your scripts somewhere else that already is in 
existence, most likely at a python script warehouse, or a Qt or KDE program 
warehouse. Unfortunately, I have yet to find a site that I personally enjoy 
and find useful, so there is no place that I can suggest for this. If anyone 
knows of a good site, let me know.

Option three is to use someone's web server, install mod_perl with apache, and 
get a real solution together, not this PHP stuff that SourceForge requires us 
to use. I would enjoy doing a lot of development work putting together an 
interactive website. The only downside is that we need to find someone with a 
suitable server. 

Those are the three long tem solutions I am looking at. The most realistic and 
the best option in my opinion is the first one. However, I myself cannot 
implement it. If anyone else has any other ideas, let me know.

In the meantime, if you want to see your source code on sourceforge, send me 
your code and a brief description of what your software does and why it is 
cool. I'll talk with the current webmaster and see what we can do with it.

What is the future of pyke.sf.net, because I want to know if it is possible to place some 
little programs I happened to write on that page. By now, I do not have my own page and I 
wouldn't like to create one.
So it would be nice if there was a section of programs with links and/or direct downloads.

One of the programs I mean is outline.py. It started as a port of the outline example of 
Qt, but is under development for some time now and has evolved.
It keeps a tree of remarks in an XML file, I use it as todolist/notepad/knowledge 
base/organizer.
It is designed for fast keyboard use and does not have documentation yet. You will need 
QScintilla and recent snapshots of sip/PyQt.
It is not as big and full of features as Treeline, but can be used much faster. I do not 
want to post it to the list right now, but if anybody is interested, I will mail it to them.
