I believe the network issues have been solved, however I have decided to switch to jaguarpc.com. This is going to cost about 5 times as much per month but I anticipate a much lower server load average and increased speed, especially for the WIKI.

I'll keep you all posted and let you know when I migrate it to the new server. If there is anything I should know about moving the WIKI please let me know.

ALSO, I imagine I can turn on uploads for certain members in the WIKI so images don't have to be hosted elsewhere. Any comments on this?

The wiki is on the new server now. It\'s running a lot faster as well.

I have an idea, tell me what you think:

The Network Store admin can control the store with a web based control panel which is hosted on his server.
I think that we should add a "remote" control to ease the administration of the store.
Moreover, this feature will attract people to our project!


P.S
I built a prototype of this feature (Java).

Not sure I understand what your idea is. The store is an application that people will install on their own server. It'll need an admin control panel, but that will be part of the store application .. obviously that will be on his server along with the rest of the store. Perhaps you could write up a more complete description and add it to the Wiki.

Everything in the store will be pure PHP, HTML, CSS, and possibly JavaScript depending on how the developers feel about JS. Java, Flash, etc should only be used as part of plugins, not the core application.

i think ok talks about a desktop application administrating the store through a defined api. i see some benefits in this approach but i think that this belongs to step 1023 (read: as soon as the shop is finalized (; )

cheers

I'd classify using an Internet Browser as a remote administration client, personally.

Yes, that is what I mean!

And, yes, it will be a plug-in.

Basically, the plug-in will act like server (or like Google Desktop). If you use this plug-in, you can access to the control panel
by starting the plug-in and then enter "127.0.0.1:6489" in the browser's address bar (it will be look like the control panel
placed on the server).

Why create and implement that, when the functionality offered will already be fully available via the users web-brwoser?

That would actually be classified as a seperate project. Gallery 2 uses a similar program for uploading images. Anything that helps the end user create product listings efficiently is a good thing.

Can I join in? Im interested in participating in the code development and also possibly design -- although I see you got the design ground covered.

Here's a possible logo for the wiki.

Of course you can. The more people we have the quicker this will all get done. I like the logo. If no one objects I'll throw it on the WIKI.

Do we have a list anywhere of things we need to do?

I'm just starting to get some free time on my hands again, so I'm ready to go on this.
