Re: Changes In The World Of XOOPS
With all of this in mind, a new era of change, a new era of teams and development, I’m wondering what are XOOPS goals and objectives?
What is the overall vision for XOOPS, where are you trying to take it?
At least I hope the teams are all fully aware and are all singing from the same hymn sheet.
Good luck all.
Re: Changes In The World Of XOOPS
Please also add to the Module Development team:
Deepy (aka xoops_gold)
Vaughan (aka M0nty)
solo71
sulco
wtravel
I've made initial contact with the team and will set about defining roles, goals and responsibilities. As the article says, new members for the team are invited - many hands make light work and all that.
Re: Changes In The World Of XOOPS
Im glad something is happening and it all looks exciting.
I was ready to give up, and was headed to drupal/joomla. But now i will hang around to see what develops.
The question of going to fast is not an issue, anything by committee takes forever.

This is something that I believe DJ will be talking about soon.
He's currently structuring the dev teams, and communicating with them, once he's ready I believe a further statement will be made.

I too was about to give up, I'd already been playing with other CMS's and even testing porting users and info over, which was rather successful, however as you did, I decided to stick it out a little longer and see the outcome.
Re: Changes In The World Of XOOPS
Excellent article.
I have a couple of concerns. I assume porting the xoops.org forum database to the new XOOPS support site is impractical, hence the decision to archive this site. But how exactly is it going to be archived? I mean, will I be able to refer posters to existing posts like I can now. Will the FAQ be archived too?.
Also, is there a possibility that the Google search of the archive can be implemented on the 'new' support site(s) like they had on helpxoops.info?. It really was fast and turned up lots of information.

With the original plan, porting the DB was more than impractical, it was illegal since the XOOPS Project would not be the managing body of the community support site.

That was the original plan. Relevant FAQ were to be moved to documentation, the current xoops.org was to become archive.xoops.org and made read-only. cross-domain searching was to be implimented so that searches could be performed across the main project site as well as the community support site, the addons site, and the documentation site, perhaps even more sites.
Now that DJ has reversed the decision of the previous management, I am uncertain what will be done now.
Re: Changes In The World Of XOOPS
Greatest respect for phppp, but I'm sure he secretly has a day job in local government.
Re: Changes In The World Of XOOPS
I wonder how many times I have seen the announcements of a new project management team....
Nothing has happened here for years, I doubt this will change now.
If it wasn't for the old XOOPS and the really good modules and my lazyiness to migrate, I would have moved away from XOOPS long time ago.

Dude, that post offers nothing to any of us but negativity we can all do without.
I'm crossing my fingers for the project to continue with as few bumps in the road as possible. Good luck to everyone.
Re: Changes In The World Of XOOPS
So who is XOOPS Leader?
According to this article, it would appear that JMorris is the new XOOPS Leader. However, I do know that this has been somewhat disputed and that phppp seems to have assumed the mantle in addition to being core development team leader.
Clarity please.
Re: Changes In The World Of XOOPS
It can be all rather confusing, can't it?
When Skalpa resigned, as the article states, the role of project manager fell to James (jmorris), the only other active administrator of the project/site.
He first sought to secure a new lead developer - DJ (phppp).
As DJ stepped up and into the project, he stated he would take on the roles of lead developer and project manager in this post
[XoopsTeam] My role (temporary) during the transient period. In a response to that post, James announced his support of DJ in those roles.
I think that is about as much as we can determine from the public discussions.
Re: Changes In The World Of XOOPS
Oh boy! 
No wonder DJ has been progressing as he has. I did not read what he was saying clearly. I was supporting his role as Lead Developer, not Project Manager. At that time, I was under the impression that DJ and I would work together to build a new management structure that benefited all.
For my part in this confusion, I apologize.

Advisory Team
In summary, output from the team is "criticizing and suggestions" to the project teams. “
To me, it seems in the lines of a "Watchdog" or an "Advisory Council".
We never had any answer on the "power" of a such team.
Crying, or barking is one thing but if does not bring to anything .... (except "moderation").

خوب پس از آخرین نامه به کاربران زوپس تغییرات زیادی حاصل شده که به شرحتون می رسونم؛
skalpa که در خبر قبلی متعاقبا اعلام کردیم هنوز مریض هستش و ایشون J_morris رو به عنوان جانشین برای مدیریت پروژه (PROJECT MANAGER) پیشنهاد کرده.
PHPPP به عنوان سرپرست پروژه (PROJECT LEADER) انتخاب شده و همونطور که دوستان در سایت زوپس خبر دادن، و ما هم اینجا خبرشو دادیم، ایشون فتوایی صادر کردن برای گرد هم آمدن دوولاپر های مختلف و و پیش بردن پروژه با نظر همگانی و کمک افراد جدید تر و در این مدت این تیم ها انتخاب شدند که نام تیم ها و اعضای آنها رو به اطلاعتون می رسونم:
:
1-تیم مشورتی یا همان Advisory Team :
طبق تصمیم گیری phppp، این تیم به این منظور تشکیل شده که اعضای قدیمی زوپس که اون رو ترک کردن دوباره به این گروه ملحق بشن(منظور اعضای توسعه دهندگی) و با نظرات و کمک های برنامه نویسیشون به بهتر شدن زوپس کمک کنن، که در این میاد افراد بزرگنامی همچون Predator ، aka ، Marko بودند که به زوپس بازگشتند، Predator کسی بودش که ماژول OSC رو به زوپس پرت کرده بودش ولی برای مدتی به پروژهء جوملا پیوسته بودش که هم اکنون به سوی زوپس بازگشته و ما از در اختیار داشتن همچین افرادی بسیار مسروریم.
مورد بعدی تیم مشورتی برای کسانیه که داتش غنی ای و تجربه های گرانبهایی در ضمینه طراحی وبسایت و پیرامون آن دارند، ولی وقت کافی برای رسیدگی به پروژه و یا دنبال کردن آن بصورت منظم ندارند که می تونن به ما بپیوندند و هر وقت که آزاد بودن ما رو با کمک هایشان یاری کنند.
و آخرین مورد برای کسانیه که نمی خوان عضو پروژه باشن و در برنامه نورسی ها کمک کنن ولی می دونند و می فهمند که مسیر اشتباهه و در این زمینه(راهیابی صحیح) ما رو یاری کنند.
2-شورای پروژهء زوپس
همون طور که پیشتر در این مقاله گفته شد برای مشورت و نتیجه بندی در ضمینه آینده زوپس و دوالاپر ها
3- تیم سرور
