Well, as I've stated, I don't have experience in developing webapps, so I can't recommend anything to you. I think this type of info would be used most by devs. While users may use it, I think the primary goal is to collect data to help the devs decide where to put more of their efforts, and help streamline the stabilization process. For the most part the gentoo sites use guide xml, which is a custom xslt transformation... I don't think this type of tool would fit well with the semi static nature of gentoo's web pages using guide xml. Also this data would most likely be on a different server than the gentoo.org site. I suggested a webapp as means of primary interaction because it is easily run in a browser, so no special software needs to be installed. It is just the one one program. That opens it up to all users. But a gui could be developed to get the data from the database and display the reports, graphs, etc.. be it gtk , kde/Qt, or whatever. That's where the powers that be need to chime in with their comments and thoughts of the direction they would like to see it take. =20 All my comments are my own and not to be considered as absolute (my way or the highway ;). --=20 Brian Dolbec --=-7XFoDiREABSWrqgO5hi0 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.17 (GNU/Linux) iQEcBAABAgAGBQJNiZNuAAoJECIU2QoBTxfLmEwH/AnJaHga+zdEhn49jqX2HDIX PbTLZCbSx5wE/tZpgjfyAZeXkO0BiGBsO5rlmg96Uxr2ThQS4w7jiT734LEYK8FM 1eYGTtaR+1ekKxSkcq5zeBYJPHjzs8n8vgUSgsXBbRJzIvEdLBknFKTh1li81yad Yc0fl670CFywJL6VCat8PX9KmBnsC/kpZoVVy5XvhjjBV8WP5hfvOuc9JskIDUjU 1OFRXleNdDEYuvOQrAZU5a7X9js/VuEcCV+PZRwcQJQI4qbOGIoKdheKKU6EGbpn /3IvO9QmZDPKURqxIvEdiLyYmCoKplcuDHF+TPAj/8gig0rYoX94vTIG47YhfFM= =0qsM -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-7XFoDiREABSWrqgO5hi0--
