getting news from the development conference
What would be the best way to get news from the development conference
this week for those of us not going? Will someone be reporting on
what's being worked on and so forth?
I'm particularly interested in the Document Outpup Management that
Jacopo talks about at http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/~jacopoc/My+Misc

13.title. Move ecommerce component to specialpurpose directory (ml
discussion?)
Please count my vote on this topic. Why not create a new "frontend"
directory which may contain frontend examples of java/jsp/ftl, php and
asp? Show a real service engine.

Re: getting news from the development conference

Thanks David for posting the update. It's good to see the diverse
objectives being talked about in depth. Good groundwork for what looks
to be a really productive week.
There were a few topics that caught my fancy in particular. I'll add
my two cents in the order that appeared to have a little
momentum/interest behind it.
15. Use of AJAX
Because of the way the layoutSettings.stylesheets[] has been set up, I
think this opens up an approach of best toolkit for the task rather
than the best toolkit for the project as a whole. I started playing
with openrico's Live Grid over the weekend and it makes me kind of
giddy with what a great fit it is for the performFindList service. I'm
almost done with a multi-field, update result set with every keystroke
solution that I think someone with slightly better javascript skills
than myself (which isn't saying much) can 'generify' it for simple
widespread use.
6.Applications Style Cleanup
Adrian, if you can point out specific patterns that you'd like see
changed (I can think of a few regarding splitting ftl files). This
seems like an area those of us who need to scratch that OCD itch can
tackle.
10. Order Manager: Refactor Checkout Process
Anil, I think this comes to the same question that JIRA has seen
regarding this. Are we talking about the UI, the business logic or
both? From the a,b,c,d of this topic I suspect it's both. As far as the
business logic, if you could review
http://ofbiz-sandbox.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/ofbiz-sandbox/ofbiz-sandbox/trunk/hot-deploy/shoppingcart/script/org/ofbiz/shoppingcart/
I may be able to find some time during the week to square that off.
18. Setup Wizard
The +1s didn't show any interest for this during the conference. Might
it be easier to allow for a single external file to hold overrides for
some of these config properties using a specific naming pattern. I
think this will save time in advancing the effort as people can
contribute to the areas where they have knowledge. It will also allow
for cleaner SVN checkouts and help keep people closer to svn HEAD. I
know I spend quite a bit of time verifying that the config files I've
changed in the framework have updated properly.
Thanks everyone! Look forward to a busy week!

Here's a quick update on the dev conference today. Most of the day
today was passed going through the rather large list of possible
topics, many of which will be saved for future conferences or remote
effort.
We put together a confluence page to document what we talked about,
and what people at the conference want to work on. During the
discussion we talked about various of these, and then after voting we
had a presentation from Tim Ruppert on Joomla to get some ideas for
enhancing the content administration pages.
The page with the overview and votes is here:
http://docs.ofbiz.org/x/ZgY
If anyone has any questions, comments, or would like to participate
in working on these, please let us know! We have some facilities,
like a web cam with microphone and of course IRC and such to
facilitate remote involvement for anyone interested.

Can we post updates to the freenode #ofbiz channel? Then maybe a
daily summary would be nice for those of us participating after hours.

I'm not at the conference and I don't think they will be addressed at
this conference but I'm planning to work on these features in my spare
time (it is not a paid work unfortunately); I really believe they could
be a great enhancement for OFBiz. If you are willing to help we can
share the effort.
Let me know and thanks for your interest
Jacopo
