# Apr 26th 2010, 01:48 savant im all for just throwing out the current bakery and making something that looks like the current bakery for the frontend users and something that looks prettier in the backend
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:47 real34 as soon as we'll know what is needed, implementing it will be fast and we could have more people involved with it
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:47 real34 I'll try to set the bakery up in local and dig in the numerous branches to see what could I could do to help, but imo what is most needed atm are just specifications!
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:45 savant I should redump the db to be honest as the schema has changed and I haven't been diligent on making migrations, but there are only two developers working on it (myself and ProLoser) so it hasn't been a big deal
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:45 savant most of the github specific code is in a single model and it's controller
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:43 savant that hits github directly, but assuming I added codaset support, that would just mean making a switch or a helper to handle it
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:43 real34 ok
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:42 savant about the only thing github specific that would need refactoring is the news feed on each user/repository
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:42 savant i've been toying locally with hitting redmine for stuff
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:41 savant real34: not really. i have plans to allow it to access codaset once joel moss releases an api for it
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:41 savant i thought about making the account I have on github (cakephp-plugin-server) make pull requests to all developers on github with non-compliant cakephp app or plugin code
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:41 real34 savant, is there anything specific to github or could it be easily extended to any git repo?
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:40 savant next step is to serve them all up using git-svn and git-web
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:39 savant so now i have mirrors of every package I am indexing (about 577, give or take 10 that have been renamed or deleted)
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:39 savant i've squashed a few bugs recently
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:39 savant linking to a repo is easy
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:39 savant gisting is easy
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:38 savant probably
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:38 real34 do you think the code you did for cakepackages could be easily reused for the github interaction (to link a code to a repository or a gist)?
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:37 savant to be honest I'm about to just throw out all of the existing bakery code and rewrite from scratch
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:36 real34 I'm just like you!
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:35 savant well, im more than happy to help with whatever is needed
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:35 savant hmmm
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:34 real34 not yet... still a matter of time afaik :)
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:34 savant is that code open source yet?
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:34 real34 cakeqs was build with the idea of being multilingual and openid enabled, but it is just the beginning of a unique login
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:33 savant too many tools to be managed, and its too bad no one really has time to be dedicated to them, otherwise it would be kick ass
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:33 real34 I totally agree with that ;) and I think the CakePHP team and the CSF are aware of it. Imo it is just a matter of time for updating everything
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:32 savant oh and we can't forget live.cakephp.org, although it is usually forgotten for a few months
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:31 savant and then there is cakeforge, which is still hosting random things and being linked to by members (there is some good stuff there but it's getting sort of outdated)
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:31 savant and cakeqs should really replace the google groups, but you'd need to import the archive (does cakeqs integrate with the other logins?)
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:30 savant then there are the google groups, which get a modest amount of traffic, but usually the same questions
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:30 savant lighthouseapp is nice, but it requires yet another account on yet another service
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:29 savant the book is well built, but needs some work to make it apparent to all users that it is a wiki and they CAN contribute
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:29 savant the bakery is a smelly turd because people post their articles and the code isn't in a repository (git, svn or otherwise)
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:28 savant you have bin, which is awesome, but not tied to my user account
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:28 savant to be blunt, there are way too many disparate tools in use for the cakephp community
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:28 real34 that "non tech" decision-makers could read to see how Cake is awesome :)
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:27 real34 with all official announcements and community highlights
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:27 real34 a blog on news.cakephp.org for instance
# Apr 26th 2010, 01:27 real34 I initially thought about a simple setup of Croogo for another blog (simple / efficient), but the idea of having yet another tool is not optimal
