ZacTopher Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Basicly just forum that let's people present their project and people who's interested in helping out could then reply to the thread. Have a one thread per project rule. The project's thread will be updated on changes, such as new developers joining the team, releases, patches, etc. This way the most active projects will be easily to find and follow. (Another scenario: The project must be validated by an admin before it can be posted on there. Meaning the forum section get's its own group or something. This way there will be less non-active projects) What do you guys think? I think it's a very good idea for promoting projects.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ignace Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 The project's thread will be updated on changes, such as new developers joining the team, releases, patches, etc. This way the most active projects will be easily to find and follow. It's called GITHub Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZacTopher Posted March 6, 2011 Author Share Posted March 6, 2011 Well I know about GITHub, but wasn't the idea GITHub is probably great for hosting the project (not using it myself).. But that was not the idea behind this post So if we look away from that part of the first post and focus on this then Basicly just forum that let's people present their project and people who's interested in helping out could then reply to the thread.

salathe Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Isn't this what the freelance forum is for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZacTopher Posted March 6, 2011 Author Share Posted March 6, 2011 I thought freelance was for payed jobs.. I'm thinking more about personal projects which you would like to team up with someone to create.. For exampel like doddsey_65's ASF project in the website critique section Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

salathe Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Of course, the staff here might like to open up a more "social coding" type of forum; especially since the freelance forum is closed for replies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.josh Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 IMO freelance forum is good enough - or at least, a good enough compromise. IMO having a full forum like that would just further promote the "Someone please do my work for me for free" agenda many people seem to have.

Pikachu2000 Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 CV, I couldn't agree more. There's already enough of that here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maq Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 I see where you're coming from, but I have to agree with everyone else, overall I don't see this working out nor being popular enough to warrant a new forum. Besides, there are already tools built for this type of collaboration that are more suitable. Thanks for the suggestion though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
