Title: Resource projects on the wiki
Post by: polygone on March 08, 2011, 06:42:03 am

I've recently been witnessing the benefits of using the wiki as far as organisation goes. I'm wondering if we should set up a system so people can post all their resource projects there such as examples, tutorials, engines, DLLs, graphics, sounds. They will then all be nicely categorised and serve as a place for hosting.

I'm all for it, but I think Josh has the final say as far as server-related things go.
Disregard. I must have been drunk or under the influence of something when I read the suggestion. I agree that wiki has organizational benefits, but hosting files like that is a filespace concern for our server. Besides, I think we have other things in progress to serve this purpose (The EDC, I think)

The wiki shouldn't be the place for this stuff.  If and when the EDC comes out, that's where it would be.

Quite frankly, I doubt that we have the server space for this stuff, regardless.

I was thinking about server space when I was suggested this, but then I just ignored the thought. Thinking back on previous conversations I've witnessed though, it know it is an issue. So I don't know what I was thinking making this suggestion  ???

You're right that the EDC will be better for this, and easier anyway. The plan is for it to hopefully fund itself through advertisements right?

I wouldn't say that's the plan. That's just the means.
