| 15 Jul 2010 | F. Kranenburg | More Like This Link To Other Projects If my idea to add tags to a project is approved, this function could be automated as well by using the tags. |
| 15 Jul 2010 | Peter D Presnell | LinkJam for development I agree with Fred. Is the purpose of OpenNTF to operate as a Lotus Developer "community"? I am sure it would be great if we could agree on having ONE official community run by representatives of the community to the community. |
| 15 Jul 2010 | Niklas Heidloff | VM Image with ready to use Demos Gregg, it didn't mean to put the burden necessarily on the project owners. Obviously it would be good to get help from the project owners but maybe someone from the OpenNTF Technical Committee could build this if considered important enough from the community. |
| 15 Jul 2010 | Albert Buendia | A central site for feature requests about existing projects Niklas, I understand that my response should be "yes" but from a user point of view not from a project owner. |
| 15 Jul 2010 | Gregg Eldred | Sametime integration I've demoted this idea for the reason @1 mentioned. |
| 15 Jul 2010 | Gregg Eldred | VM Image with ready to use Demos I've demoted this idea because I cannot think of any software reseller that does this. Most, if not all, provide you with demo's for you to download and install in your environment. I am trying to understand what would possess OpenNTF to do this, on an all volunteer basis. And that is the other important fact, "all volunteer." I may change my mind, if it can be demonstrated that this will drive more people to use the applications on OpenNTF and that OpenNTF has the financial and human budget to do this. And the same is true of Keith's idea. |
| 15 Jul 2010 | Gregg Eldred | Setup a openntf demo server with all "final" products running I've demoted this idea because I cannot think of any software reseller that does this. Most, if not all, provide you with demo's for you to download and install in your environment. I am trying to understand what would possess OpenNTF to do this, on an all volunteer basis. And that is the other important fact, "all volunteer." I may change my mind, if it can be demonstrated that this will drive more people to use the applications on OpenNTF and that OpenNTF has the financial and human budget to do this. And the same is true of the VM idea. |
| 15 Jul 2010 | Niklas Heidloff | A central site for feature requests about existing projects Is this different from { Link } ? |
| 15 Jul 2010 | Gregg Eldred | More Like This Link To Other Projects What a fantastic idea! Drive interest in other projects, raise awareness, make it easy to "discover" some other cool project. Why can I not promote this idea more than once? <laughs> |
| 15 Jul 2010 | Albert Buendia | Disallow project deletion by project owners ...Even if the project is a lot of years older ! There are users, admins, developers AND starters and beginners. Even an older project can help to learn Lotus stuff. |
| 15 Jul 2010 | John D Head | OpenNTF Alliance Members first, here is the correct url - your link doesnt work { Link } Second, the Alliance members are anyone who signs the Alliance membership document. This is not about projects or anything else. STS could be on that page, as could any other company, just by filling out the form and sending it in (and providing us your logo, company info, and url). We have Alliance member companies who only become members to show support for OpenNTF.org. They don't contribute code as a company nor provide any money (at ths time). Other companies do it because it is the easiest way to complete the CCLA for them. What info are you looking for Darren? |
| 15 Jul 2010 | Marius Loewe | Sametime integration @Niklas I think it depends on how many people uses OpenNTF but not bleedyellow or Greenhouse. Nevertheless integrating e.g. the Greenhouse ST community into OpenNTF could be as good as integrating an own ST community. The idea is not about creating a ST community; it is about integrating ST into OpenNTF. E.g. the possibility to start a chat by clicking on a person on OpenNTF. |
| 15 Jul 2010 | Matthew Buchanan | Disallow project deletion by project owners @1 I'm not a project owner, so I don't see details like that. My view is pretty simple - if it has been made publically available on OpenNTF.org, it should not be a trivial matter to remove it. This would apply to hiding releases that have been marked as inactive. @3 It doesn't make the requirement redundant, as there is always going to be a need to be able to independently verify the license that a release was made available on. |
| 15 Jul 2010 | Ben Rose | Disallow project deletion by project owners All project should be supplied with the Open Source details included, making this requirement a little redundant. |
| 15 Jul 2010 | Ben Rose | Sign all projects (nsf/ntf) with an OpenNTF id I'm with Corey #8 - Thumbs down. |
| 15 Jul 2010 | Timothy L Briley | Do A UI Test On openntf.org From The Perspective Of A Newcomer If I correctly understand the mission of openntf.org, the audience is supposed to include endusers who want to do the Lotus Notes equivalent of adding a plugin to Firefox. If I'm correct in that understanding, then find a person who isn't a developer, tell them that there's a plugin on this site that you'd like for them to install, then see if they can find it. I think it needs to be as easy to find a plugin for Lotus Notes as it is to go to mozilla.com and find a plugin for Firefox. Perhaps a good start would be to strip down the home page to two links, one link would be "If you are an enduser, start here" and the other would be "If you are a developer or administrator, start here". BTW, a phrase I've seen a few times is "browse the catalogs", yet the word "catalogs" isn't a link and and doesn't appear as a link elsewhere on the page. That's got to be extremely frustrating for someone not already familiar with the site. |
| 15 Jul 2010 | Corey Davis | Starter database/template Because you have already created a project to do this, I don't think this is something that OpenNTF needs to provide. |
| 15 Jul 2010 | Corey Davis | Format / Blueprint for describing a project Great idea! |
| 15 Jul 2010 | Sander Zwart | Starter database/template I Like the ID, but the biggest problem with client based applications is the application design (layout). My tip is to keep it as close to the look and feel of the mailfile. This is what MS is doing as well. Sometime is see designs wch makes me cry. The function of the application might be ok, but if the design doesn't feel well the user will not use it. |
| 15 Jul 2010 | Sander Zwart | Activeness indicator Some apps needs to be removed. |
