ECT - teamleadersHello,
is this page http://typo3.org/teams/extension-coordination-team/ still correct? Or is this outdated info? lib/div, xajax (Elmar Hinz) ... As fas as I have seen Elmar Hinz is not available. Party Information Framework (David Brühlmeier) ... Doesn't the WEC do this? - Franz _______________________________________________ TYPO3-team-extension-coordination mailing list TYPO3-team-extension-coordination@... http://lists.netfielders.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/typo3-team-extension-coordination |

Re: ECT - teamleadersHello Franz and all,
yes, shure, Elmar didn't react since many months. And we cannot blame him, because he always said that his leaderships would end at 31th of December 2007. We just didn't believe it ;-) So after 6 months it would be good to vote for a new team-leader and create a forge-teampage. In my team (DocTeam) the forge-page is helping us very much. As candidates I see: * you, Franz Holzinger * David Toshack (Enhanced Rights Management in the wiki, Mail Framework) * Søren Andersen * Christoph Koehler from WEC * Christian Welzel (kickstarter__mvc) Cheers! Daniel > Hello, > > is this page > http://typo3.org/teams/extension-coordination-team/ > still correct? Or is this outdated info? > > lib/div, xajax (Elmar Hinz) ...

Re: ECT - teamleadersHello,
what do you think, if I start next week creating a forge-project for ECT? ;-) But to clarify: I would not be the leader, just a member. Cheers!

Re: ECT - teamleadersIt would be worth to redefine the goals of the ECT.
I found 2 pages about that: http://wiki.typo3.org/index.php/ECT/Homepage http://typo3.org/teams/extension-coordination-team/ Which projects are still alive? Some project could be remove from the list. http://wiki.typo3.org/index.php/ECT/Homepage#ProjectsTable_.2B_Goals As it seems to have no more energy going into the lib/div framework, I would suggest to help Jochen's effort with http://forge.typo3.org/projects/show/extension-gimmefive > what do you think, if I start next week creating a forge-project for > ECT? ;-) And what project are you thinking about? regards, Fabien > > Cheers! > Daniel > > >> In article >> <mailman.1.1214208408.13172.typo3-team-extension-coordination@... >> fielders.de> Franz Holzinger <franz@...> wrote: >>> Hello, >> >>> is this page >>> http://typo3.org/teams/extension-coordination-team/ >>> still correct?

Re: ECT - teamleadersHi,
the goal of ECT was to have a platform, where teams are build to develop extensions instead of 10 extensions doing all the same. I don't see ECT as a project for forge, it's more a communication channel. In the past ECT was more a support forum for lib/div, what wasn't the purpose of ECT. So imho ECT can live without a declared leader, it should be ruled by the devs here. vg Steffen _______________________________________________ TYPO3-team-extension-coordination mailing list TYPO3-team-extension-coordination@... http://lists.netfielders.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/typo3-team-extension-coordination |

Re: ECT - teamleadersHello,
in my view a moderator is needed, maybe that's the best word for it. ECT has started as an OVERVIEW of current ongoings - and a mailinglist (I mean technically) cannot do this. lib/div was ONE project of ECT, one of several ones. For me forge is not "SVN with a bugtracker", out of my view it's a team-platform. fabien: * "It would be worth to redefine the goals of the ECT." * http://wiki.typo3.org/index.php/ECT/Homepage * Which projects are still alive? * I would suggest to help Jochen's effort with extension-gimmefive * forge-project for ECT?

Re: ECT - teamleadersHey all,
I'm not 100% in the ECT and what's going on there, but for me it seems like the ECT, mainly div/lib, missed its goal. I thought it should also be a starting point for migrating to 5.x, but there seems no communication between the teams. Also, I would love to have the ECT team work closer with the 4.x core team, so we can maybe integrate some cool things. Then, there are IMHO some crazy ideas like "div2007" that I think are just plainly wrong, as it is another dependency and some more extra you have to juggle around with versions, incompatibilities and the extensions (hard enough with TYPO3 4.1 and 4.2 already after updating). Developing extensions make it even harder then. "This extension only runs with TYPO3 4.0 and div2007 and lib2008" ;-) Why not finish div/lib and that's it then? It's been long enough in alpha/beta state now. However, "cal" from the ECT is great, but as you see, it also defined its own MVC framework again --- why reinvent the wheel again and again and not collaborate? (no offense to the cal guys, I just think communication is important). Again, no offense guys, but the ECT should not just coordinate extensions but also the development of the core teams with the extensions, instead of defining its own core (div/lib). Maybe one guy could be in 4.x, 5.x and the ECT to coordinate? So, that's just my 2 cents -- sorry for being so direct. Now you can hold forth of me :) greetings, benni. -SDG- Daniel Bruessler wrote: > Hello, > > in my view a moderator is needed, maybe that's the best word for it.

What is the scope of such a role?

Re: ECT - roles and responsibilitiesDaniel Bruessler wrote:
> Helllo Fabien, > > == moderator/team-leader/editor == >>> Daniel Bruessler wrote: in my view a moderator is needed, maybe >>> that's the best word for it. I think we need a number of roles to fully complement the responsibilities of extension coordination. Organization of roles and responsibilities within the ECT will hopefully bring more pull in getting the quality up and the quantity down of TYPO3 extensions. What I would like to propose is that we start with some brainstorming of possible ECT responsibilities based on the mission statement[1]. Remember, this is brainstorming so don't be shy. Feel free to throw something, even just to see if it sticks. If its not suitable enough for ECT it can always be suggested to the Association team for delegation. Once we have a list of responsibilities we can group them into roles to manage them. Possibly with some sort of hierarchy so that we can have even the smallest (managed) roles leaving nothing to slip between the cracks of these voluntary limited roles. >> Some suggestions about tasks assigned to the moderator / ECT leader : >> >> - have a global overview of the different team and projects, >> - encourage developers to coordinate their effort, >> - maintain the different wiki / typo3.org pages up to date.

I do. I definitely believe there should be an ECT team(s) and projects on the forge site. It would also be nice to encapsulate T3N's Extension Comparison team[2] into the ECT which could benefit both teams. I think this would require the forge site to be better organized. Maybe with more project hierarchy. I like the idea of specific project categories like Drupal's module categories[3]. Although it may require a bit of recruiting; I believe there are enough TYPO3 _users_ out there to assign people to roles and responsibilities for each and every one of these extension categories. Even if the assignment of these roles change often I think with the right role hierarchy we can manage to keep many of these type of minor roles filled by TYPO3 users of _any_ capacity. > => in my view as wiki-maintainer it IS important to move from wiki to > forge. and again: lib/div is just ONE project of ECT. +1 In fact I see great benefit in moving a lot of the content from the TYPO3 wiki in general into the forge site. > == lib/div, FLOW3-MVC aka gimmefive == >>> Steffen Kamper wrote : the goal of ECT was to have a platform, where >>> teams are build to develop extensions instead of 10 extensions doing >>> all the same. >> >> That's my opinion too... and the benefit goes to everyone. >> >>> Benjamin Mack wrote: Why not finish div/lib and that's it then?

Re: ECT - roles and responsibilitiesHello David,
yes, a number of roles is a very good idea, so it's no problem when somebody has to leave for a while and others want to help. what's with that: * care for documentation & forge-team-area * moderator * connector for each topic ("encourage developers", see my last list + team-extcomp, core4, core5, news-team, T3N, association-team) Important: just ONE forge-project because we would loose overview if we had a bunch of ECT-forge-projects. Just one forge-project within the list "Others". Every coordination-effort can exist in it's own category. This works very well in DocTeam! http://forge.typo3.org/projects/show/other The drupal website is offline this morning, so I could not look at this. http://drupal.org/project/Modules Cheers!

Gimmefive has a top/down construction and is going to change (a lot?) since it has a strong relation with FLOW3. For example, both use the MVC pattern but their implementation are different.

Only a ECT teamleader could do so. div/lib is for providing a class collection to replace the _pibase_ class which is not developed any further by the TYPO3 Core team. And of course it goes to PHP5 and provides a MVC. However it has stuck in alpha phase. > Then, there are IMHO some crazy ideas like "div2007" that I think are > just plainly wrong, as it is another dependency and some more extra you > have to juggle around with versions, incompatibilities and the > extensions (hard enough with TYPO3 4.1 and 4.2 already after updating). > Developing extensions make it even harder then. "This extension only > runs with TYPO3 4.0 and div2007 and lib2008" ;-) No this is wrong. The div2007 has become necessary because the API of div might still change a lot. And TYPO3 is not able to have more than one version of an extension installed at the same time. Otherwise it would not be possible to use 2 different extensions which relied on different div APIs. So you could not download the latest version of an extension if you need other extensions depending on div which have not been updated any more. > Why not finish div/lib and that's it then? It's been long enough in > alpha/beta state now. There seems to be no developer group any more for div/lib. And I think that div/lib should still be changed a lot. More functionality should come into it. > Again, no offense guys, but the ECT should not just coordinate > extensions but also the development of the core teams with the > extensions, instead of defining its own core (div/lib). Maybe one guy > could be in 4.x, 5.x and the ECT to coordinate? What do you mean exactly? Should the FLOW3 be used instead of lib/div in the future? But where should the functions of lib/div come then? Will new requirements of extensions and patches come into TYPO3 Core, but where? The response time in the Core list is very long in some cases. And the time between new TYPO3 versions with an enhanced API is very long. It takes many months until a new class would be put into the next TYPO3 version. But if you develop an extension than you require that a new function is available after a very short time. So I fear that no coordinated development of extensions would be possible, because everyone would still continue to write his own function API and classes.

We need a library extension like lib/div to where all code can be put which is needed in most extensions and which will be used instead of the pibase TYPO3 class. We can add more specific extension libraries which are needed by a smaller number of exensions. > What I would like to propose is that we start with some brainstorming of > possible ECT responsibilities based on the mission statement[1]. - contact all extension developers to contribute to the ECT extensions. They shall give up their own extension libraries and move their written code into these ECT library extensions.

(refactoring) Make many releases, because the developers want to see their methods very soon in the TYPO3 TER. >> in forge we can use several categories for the coordination-efforts: >> * coord.

Some decision must be made which MVC extension sto use. So maybe a redesign of lib/div should be started to fit all needs. Then this should be used as the base MVC sytem for most TYPO3 extensions. cal should be one of the exensions which use this.

Re: ECT - roles and responsibilitiesHello Franz,
I think we need several coordinators. You're the best for the lib/div framework. Seems so that nobody can coordinate all TYPO3-projects what needs any kind of common API. ;-) Do we reach a consensus on it now? by the way: A nice trip-hop radio-station is this: TripHop MonkeyRadio SanFranzisco http://groove.monkeyradio.org/ Cheers!

So what is the common opinion of the extension developers? 1) The div/lib should still be developed in the ECT. It will be refactored as much as needed and considered usefull. 2) The div/lib should be moved now into TYPO3 Core and only Core developers will make decisions on it. 3) A completely new MVC framework shall be developed instead of lib/div. 4) Another MVC framework extension shall be taken und developed instead of lib/div. All current code of lib/div will be put there. I vote for 1) if no good proposal for another already working MVC extension is made. I would leave it in alpha state. The API is open to changes with losing compatibility amongst different versions if the second version number is different. It is necessary to see if there is still interest on lib/div as a ECT extension. Is there anyone else who wants to coordinate it under the ECT? > by the way: A nice trip-hop radio-station is this: > TripHop MonkeyRadio SanFranzisco http://groove.monkeyradio.org/ This sounds good, - Franz _______________________________________________ TYPO3-team-extension-coordination mailing list TYPO3-team-extension-coordination@... http://lists.netfielders.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/typo3-team-extension-coordination |
