Ok, cool. I'd be happy to help if/when I can find some free time. Do you have a spec of requested features to look over? |

there are some changes planned in the 2.0 version of bakery if I can find time to get started on the code or get others involved |

Is there a feed or email notification we can sign up for to see new pending articles in the queue? |

Thanks, its good to be onboard. |

But its in the face of our critic that we can push to be better. No one is perfect, looking back on my articles I would change a lot. And in a year from now I'll look back on articles I write now and think "god what was I thinking". In an industry that is so fluid, you have to keep progressing and improving yourself. |

Indeed, just like any author, if you take pride in your work you pour a bit of yourself into your work. Critisicm on that work can feel like judgement on a personal level even though its truely not. |

in my experience most authors and not as receptive to feedback. either they don't check the messages or don't want to bother improving their code or maybe take is as a insult when asked to make chnage :P which is why i kinda lost interest in moderating. |

Indeed, it was valuable feedback like you provided that helped push me to produce better, cleaner, and expandable code. This is why I love idea behind the Bakery. |

I believe I will be updating that article, since I've released a few more version since then. |

I used the ajax helper alot before 1.3 came out and blew it's socks off. The article was written for 1.2 so the usage of the ajax helper seems A-OK to me. |

Apr 26th 2010, 17:13 |
nurvzy |
Well there are a few issues. One, he's modifing the core to include an extra paramter in observeField. It would be better if he just extended the AjaxHelper and applied his own logic IMHO. |
| # |
Apr 26th 2010, 17:12 |
ADmad |
i have never even used a js/ajax helper myself :) |

Apr 26th 2010, 17:11 |

for the article code content itself also i don't have an opinion. in general i don't care about JS related posts. they dont have much to do with cakephp |
| # |
Apr 26th 2010, 17:10 |
nurvzy |
Ok, will do |
| # |
Apr 26th 2010, 17:10 |
nurvzy |
Alright, well assuming we overlook the spelling/grammar issues and condesending tone, the article content seems OK. Thoughts? |
| # |
Apr 26th 2010, 17:09 |
ADmad |
leave him some feedback and see if you can get him to improve on it |
| # |
Apr 26th 2010, 17:07 |
nurvzy |
Ah, I see your point. |
| # |
Apr 26th 2010, 17:07 |

Indeed, personally, if the poster doesn't have the respect for the article to read through it once/twice before submitting it shouldn't be published (ie feedback given). |

english might not be the first langauge of that person and since bakery isnt internationalized yet we leave him no choice but to submit in english |
