Why's it taking so long to get the database all set? I'm getting notices and warnings everywhere, shouldn't you be using PHP5's Try/Catch error handling and such?

I've finally got done rebuilding the db. I've tried to plan for all the event that we need but i know there are more that i haven't done. The page that is on waradmin's footer isn't working since i deleted the database he was using. We are going to try to get everything sorted out with a new design and start working on the features. Be patient, we are working on getting a version up that we can at least direct people to so they can register and see the progress as it goes.

We'll give everyone the heads up when we have a better working version. Sorry for inconvience.

I'm also going to be gone fo a few days to be home with my family, no idea what will happen when i'm gone but i should be back the early part of next week. Till then.

good luck, it's a lot of work, ive been coding my own community site for a little over a year now (wouldn't have took as long, but I learned as I went)

ok well,i confused it then, opensource would be something which the source is openly available and you can edit,GPL and stuff like that,my mistake.

All of the links are broken. You might want to update your original post with the new ones.

I have been looking for a good social network portal to add to a website I am building...
I read that this project is dead too bad if anyone is looking for a good open source social networking portal like myspace there is on at sourceforge:
This is the best one that I have found so far:
It has a few bugs and anyone can add you ass a friend without the friend being asked first.

Working with you on a social enterprise

Post by foldedpaper »

Hello



Your work sounds great and could be a great partner to develop this business opportunity :)

Would you be interested in working on producing a social enterprise that provides a great service to customers, raises funds for charity and (hopefully) creates a great way to promote your site (maybe you could consider implementing this structure to your business?)

Is anyone else interested in collaborating to create a music/ video and a community site in a business structure where by 100% of any net profit is donated to charity (and the software is released on an open source basis?

Do you know of any open source music DOWNLOAD retail software?

Any help or collaboration would be great.



Regards

Edward
