poll: current Turbine use

Just wondering how many of us out there are using Turbine in their day to
day lives and haven't said a peep on this list for some time.

The "sites powered by Turbine" page is probably sorely out of date, among
other things.

Thanks,

Jeffery Painter

I use Turbine for an ongoing project. I originally chose it for its  
feature set and flexibility as compared to the other frameworks  
available at the time.

Eric Hands

 Here.

Been up and running about 6 years.

Though to be honest we're migrating our Turbine/Torque/Velocity
application to a Spring/Hibernate/Velocity architecture in a release
due later this year.

RE: poll: current Turbine use

I have been using Turbine 2.3.1 for 4 years at my current company
(previous versions since 2001). It has been a very flexible, expandable
technology.

Frankly 2.3.1 has been very solid, to the extent that I haven't yet
upgraded to a newer version...  though I am sure that I will get to this
eventually.

I have wondered at times about the cool things that others have done or
are trying to do with Turbine.  The obvious thing that seems to attract
developers to tools is new and useful features, or even useful
approaches.

It sometimes seems as if people only submit to this site when they have
some immediate problem to solve.  It would be great to hear about
other's techniques, and solutions or just something that they came
across that is cool.  Answers to individual questions are great, but
collaborative discussions, debates, etc, are what keep larger groups of
people interested and help technologies like Turbine thrive and grow.

From personal experience, I would guess that knowing that something can
be done with Turbine, or that there is an accessible approach/solution
would provide enough motivation for new developers to take the time to
learn and become proficient with Turbine.

One thing that I created for use with Turbine is a very basic approach
for re-skinning the same VM in multiple languages.  I also find it
useful for customizing/re-purposing the same page without having to
re-code the logic.  We support multiple affiliates who want their own
flavors of our products, etc.
 
I am quite certain that better minds than mine would look at my approach
for the above and say "I can do it even better than that", or "there is
already  a better solution", etc.  This is the whole point.

Would you care to comment why that migration is necessary? It could be
useful for further Turbine development.

I always thought that the wiki is the place for those types of information.

I'm currently trying to reorganize parts of the internal structure of
Turbine 4. This should allow people to use a generalized approach to
modules and an easier way to create your own module types. I try to
report my progress on the developer list. You are cordially invited to
discuss and to contribute.

Thank you for your comments. Please feel free to describe what you did
here or in the Turbine Wiki. I will be happy to look into it. We will
for sure appreciate your contributions.

We are using Turbine still for our internal applications.  We have a large
old 2.2 turbine application and a handfull of new ones.  We are also
starting to branch out and use grails and rails/jruby more though...

Thanks for the feedback.  You guys have done a great job.  If I can give
something back that might have a least a little value to others I will
be happy to submit it.  

If anyone is curious to see the following in action, it is used with the
Checkup site in the Powered by Turbine List.
