Same happened to me couple of months ago. I've change the directory name and it works now. I guess, the webhost banned all graphics with the "banner" work in it - be it the file itself, or the directory...

Nobody is irreplaceable. This is Open Source, in spite of what some may think. Members, Developers, Moderators... They all come and go. Those that go are eventually replaced by someone with equal or greater skill and life goes on.

I've watched this for many years here. Even before I registered. I remember when this project was still in the 1.x branch.

Many have come, many have gone, and most of those who have gone have been replaced. All the while, this project has grown and continued to improve.

If Hervet wants to go, let him go. If he wants to return, he may return. Everyone is free to come and go as they please.


James, this is a totally wrong attitude!!!! We're losing way too many good people who leave to other projects. We should act as a good shepherd of this project, i.e. treat each with respect, even if we disagree on issues, and try to work out our differences, so we can move XOOPS forward.

You and I had our share of discussions, but I still respect you and know that you have interests of XOOPS high on your priority list.

I wish, you, Herve, and others, would step back, go for a walk and relax, instead of escalating the issue. And then a week later rethink your decisions.

Can we have a "moratorium" on any further quitting, leaving, stepping down, etc. till end of April??????

I see it as a needed contribution to the community that cannot be implemented on xoops.org domains due to the plans for the site restructuring. I see it as a way to tie all areas of XOOPS together in one, easy to use interface.

Not everything is appropriate for a xoops.org site. As server admin, I sure as h3ll wouldn't want a site hosted on these servers with experimental modules or a site that constantly fetches rss feeds from other sites. Stop and think about it for a second. xoops.org isn't a playground. We have to keep things in perspective and use our resources in the best way possible.


Our goal should be to make www.xoops.org the best XOOPS Website possible for XOOPS users. If you see you current Website as a "playground" to test your ideas, which will be later on incorporated into XOOPS main site, then let's state so on the Website, and ask people for feedback. Right now you're asking for active content contributions, while we should be asking for contributions to www.xoops.org



Quote:

I'm overseeing the server migration so that the new site structure will be fast, reliable, and secure. Some of xoops.org's biggest issues have been because the sites are not hosted on an appropriate platform that is capable of meeting the demands of the xoops.org sites.

XOOPSinfo.com and HelpXOOPS.info deal with XOOPS issues, but as stated above, these are issues that should not be dealt with on the xoops.org servers or domains.

I have thought about this extensively. After reading a lot of discussion about the site restructuring, I came to the conclusion that the new site structure was appropriate and well thought out, but didn't answer every request. This is natural and can be expected. It's impossible to give every user exactly what they want.

My motivation behind XOOPSinfo.com is to fill in a gap that is not practical for xoops.org. Pure and simple.


If this would be the case, I wouldn't have any problems. But going to your Website, or tohttp://helpxoops.info, it shows a lot of duplicated content, that is competing with www.xoops.org

If you are talking about "filling a gap", can you define this gap?

In your original statement you say:

Quote:
Until now, XOOPSinfo has pretty much been a one-man-show. I would like to move away from this model and make XOOPSinfo a true community resource. The spirit behind this site was and still is to make it as simple as possible for members to find information.


Well, I am lost because it doesn't say that this is a "playground" to test different ideas that would benefit the main XOOPS Website, but instead it says that the goal is to have it as a "true community resource", which in my mind is competing with www.xoops.org

Can you see where my concerns are coming from?

I wish that you would judge the book by the content and not by its cover. Are you trying to say that you won't consider anything being said by somebody who is not listed as admin on XOOPS site, or has less that XXX messages posted on www.xoops.org?

As I said, I do appreciate very much all the contributions made my JMorris or Carnuke, but I hope, you don't think that it makes them Gods, i.e. they can't make mistakes in judgment.

There are many facets to a product such as Xoops, and as was read somewhere in all this was "domain names don't matter." In terms of 'dividing' the community, I don't agree. The more sites that mention XOOPS only multiplies the results in search engines and raises the core site higher in the rankings.


What is our goal here? Having higher ranking or having www.xoops.org Website as the best resource for XOOPS users? XOOPS users have been complaining for months with the lack of progress on redesigning the XOOPS Website. Let's do something about it, instead of spending our resources on some new Websites that compete with www.xoops.org
