Re: [pygame] New pygame.org website



Rene,
Thanks for the quick reply. Guess I don't understand why you would release the source in bits and pieces? I'm excited to see where this website rewrite goes, I've seen so many attempts in the past and none of them went anywhere... Won't it be stymied by the unavailability of the source?

Hi Luke,

Yes I certainly do! It's of course necessary when I've been maintaining the website for the past decade. The plan continues to be to release parts of the source code as I go. So far there are some db migration scripts, which include tools to help scrub the db of private info. The screenshots can be exported easily as they are just a folder of files at the moment.

I've been non contactable for a few weeks due to personal issues. Which I guess was frustrating to Thomas, which has led to this latest effort to make a new website.
  • most parts of the website can be updated (by wiki, bitbucket, stackoverflow, etc)
  • we need to document who has access to which admin things (there are a few people who have access to everything, but I guess not everyone knows each other, and some people go inactive some times)
  • moderation, respect and spam are issues we need to work on.

Looking forward to moving forward on the new website!


best,
