Hummm..
J'suis tombé sur un truc super sympa dont je ne connaissais pas du tout l'existence.
Je suppose que la plupart des gens ici savent qu'Ulysse 31 contient un tout autre soundtrack au Japon que chez nous.

Mais saviez vous que les japonais avaient plus récemment (enfin, je suppose que ça doit tt de même dater de début '90) réintégré la bande son originale avec un opening/ending alternatif composé par Levy?

Oui, je le savais. Ca fera pas avancer le schmilblick mais bon...
J'ai même dû en parler par ici je pense. Je reprends de mémoire.
En gros, la version sortie en VHS en 1986 est celle que l'on connaît via les DVD français (ou, pour ma part, sur des VHS d'époque qu'on m'avait copié dans les années 90 en NTSC, avec d'autres épisodes comme la Planète perdue), avec le soundtrack de Wakakusa et le doublage pas très réussi. Il n'y avait que 12 épisodes sortis sur 3 ou 4 VHS. Ensuite en 1991, la NHK a diffusé sur sa chaîne satellite l'intégralité de la série. Elle n'a pas réutilisé les anciennes bandes, et a en lieu et place commandé un nouveau doublage (avec de nouveaux comédiens -- certains meilleurs, certains moins bons), et réutilisé la bande-son d'origine (dans sa version US a priori, d'où les génériques américains). On en trouve des extraits sur YouTube.
Dommage que le même sort n'ait pas été réservé aux Cités d'or. Il faut dire que là, la série avait été intégralement diffusée sur la NHK en 1983. Aucune raison pour eux de refaire la bande son ou le doublage, donc...

Dans le genre, je ne vois que Firefly et Arnold & Willy...

Hallucinant ces histoires avec Oracle...
J'ai lu sur le même site une news de 2009 indiquant qu'ils voulaient faire un netbook qui tourne exclusivement sur une plateforme Java. Est-ce pour balayer la concurrence en prélude à cette sortie qu'ils sont plus ou moins en train de lancer la machine "forcer les gens à arrêter d'utiliser Java"...? Une décision vraiment stupide.
Moi, je m'inquiète encore plus du sort réservé à MySQL. 95% des sites web tournent dessus... (Dont Noisen.)

She won't read, but...

I spend the last hour and some reading the other thread about the Aeva mod being removed and some other posts made by certain people here and I hate to say this but they all look like they should have been deleted or at least placed to a boar accessible to the staff and those other persons.

It started like that. It started in private places. But they didn't give a damn. That's why I silently left my membergroup. And replaced my downloadable files with links, in order to lead people into visiting my website if they wanted to get the free versions of my mods. I wasn't happy, but that was the least they could do for me -- find a way to keep me relatively happy.
Of course they wouldn't. They could have told me it wasn't allowed and my mods would be deleted entirely. They could. But they didn't. What they did, instead, was to develop quickly made, cheap replacement mods using names that could lead people into thinking they were made my me, put them online, and THEN they deleted my mods. If that doesn't warrant my anger, then what should! It was an obvious attempt to boot me off their website, BY the customize team, and ONLY them as far as I know.
Problem is, the CUSTOMIZE TEAM is the team in charge of all MODS. And I have the most popular SMF mod ever. One of the main Customize team members, who never liked me, wanted me off the site, and saw this as an opportunity to force it.
I only revealed what he did, WHY he did it, and what led me to determine it was him who did it.

Of course, there are also people like you who don't care about that. What you want is free mods, free forum software, and no hassle.

Because it does not beneft the community at large. It only makes a bad impressions and it is rather depressing. in my opinion they seem to be bitter posts from persons who thought that they had a right to be on the Staff because they spend x ampunt of time in Smf or developed x amount of mods.

I'm pretty sure that "Three YEARS, FULL time" is more than enough for ANYONE to justify a SMALL reward such as being introduced into a virtual team in charge of some software. Actually, most of the members of that team joined it very easily, after a couple of months of doing support stuff on the forum. Well, I have over 5000 posts of support on that forum, as well as mods that were downloaded several hundreds of thousands of times, generating thousands and thousands of posts, a feature that none of the competing mods offer, a gallery system that actually does better than all of the standalone gallery systems in many areas, etc, etc...
Of course that didn't count to them. Just the single fact that I joined the SMF Media Gallery team made the Customizer team hate me and ensured that I would never join the SMF team.
Just look at Dragooon -- he's a very nice guy (way nicer than I am). He co-wrote SMF Media Gallery (he actually created it). Was he ever invited into the team? Not that I know of! So it's really about the Customizer team blocking all possibilities of us joining the team.
Now, the rest of the team is taking this into account, and trying to make my life less miserable.
Still, they banned me for revealing that vbgamer45 is behind much of this.

Now, it's up to them... They can kick him out for endlessly using brute force to ensure he kept his position. Arantor and I will provide replacement mods for all of his stuff. And believe me, if Arantor and I come back to the community and join the dev team and everything, SMF2 will be out very soon. I'm pretty sure that's what most users want...

Which leads me to believe that the reason those persons 'helped out or contributed' here with the only reason to be part of the staff.

No. You didn't actually read my posts did you? I helped out for fun. I contributed out of love for the project. But when you spend time working on something, you want to be treated on equal terms with the other people who provide the same level of effort.
When you realize that after three years, practically no one has put as much effort into SMF as YOU have, and yet you have never been awarded any kind of leadership or even team membership, you start getting frustrated.

Ask them for WHY they never took me in the team. They will tell you that it's because I ASKED TOO MUCH to be made a team member. Now ask anyone: was this membership a REASONABLE request? If yes, then they should have given it long ago and it's their fault that anything is happening right now.

nd then they complain why it is taking Smf so long to be released. But what is the Staff going to do first, develop Smf or deal with these bitter persons?

In June 2010, I was made an "apprentice" developer, being promised that this would lead into a team position (right inside the team that was perfect for me -- developing SMF itself). For a month, I was pretty much the only one working on SMF's development (mainly for the last two weeks). I worked real hard on this. After a month (the usual duration of an apprenticeship), I was told the apprenticeship would be extended forever. However, tha decision wasn't due to issues between me and the team -- it was due to the fact that they never planned to actually make me a member of the team. They only wanted my help in finishing SMF and were hoping that I'd be lured into doing it with a "membership prize" over my head.
My question is: did they really think I would work for that? Did they really think I did not think I had deserved that position for at least two years? And they wanted to make me work even more on SMF? For what?
For a month, I fixed so many things, added so many things, that I should have been made a team member in a week. But of course it wasn't about that.

People don't care because they don't go through three years of working hard on something and then get pissed at by those they worked for.

I am sorry if some of my words seemed a little harsh and I am sorry if someone will feel offended by that but it was not my intention at all. I wanted to say soemthing about this situation. Can not we all put all the personal feelings aside and concentrare towards a greater goal whiich is the realse of SMf 2.0 Gold as soon as possible?

If they wanted it out as soon as possible, they should have hired all of those who were willing to do it.
Of course, the single fact that they didn't hire me, and actually tried to use me once again, should tell you a lot. They're willing to get it out ASAP, they're just not willing to do it themselves -- and they're ready to use tricks to make others do it.

SMF, what a fantastic team!!

Basically, it would make me very happy to replace the functionality of all of his mods, and it seems I have some supporters in that direction too. I don't see a need to tackle SGP since I don't really see what it can do that AeMe can't, and what AeMe does better anyway.

Yeah... I remember reading the feature list recently and it had added a couple of features that weren't in AeMe, but I'd added them to my to-do-list anyway, as they're commonplace nowadays (picture tagging, etc.)

I passed it on via someone who still has access to the team, I haven't heard a reply though, and he never replied to my comments publicly about either (have a read of the Anti Spam Links mod and Ignore Topics mod threads including my asking outright if he'd bothered testing the latter, which it was clear he hadn't.)

The Ignore Topics topic is long. I didn't read it at the time. (Ah, yes, another mod that we can easily replace with my stuff.)
Anti Spam, never heard of that mod actually.

Well, only 40% of vbgamer's mods were given to him, and really, the rest are not that well coded. I remember a bit back, a list of bad style matters and borderline vulnerabilities was handed to vbgamer and there was an actual argument with him. (For example, it was possible to add items to non existent albums in SMF Gallery Lite)

That wouldn't surprise me. He obviously chose quantity over quality.

Oh, and queries in templates. But apparently that was from when rules were 'more lax'. Despite the mods still being updated.

I don't have a problem with these in mods. Because you rarely need to make a custom template for your custom themes. Meaning, you don't need to reproduce the queries from that template, either.

I find myself at a strange juncture, I don't want to write any more mods generally but I'm tempted to go make mods to replace his, ones that are well written and will mean there is no reason for him to stick around because everything he touches isn't friendly.

Mods like what?

I also reminded the team yesterday that he is blatantly exempt from rules, after publishing two mods he hasn't even tested (one by his own admission), and both I spent time fixing previously.

lol... Where did you say that? What did they answer? If anything?

I still don't get why they're not unbanning me. Kindred PM'ed me on sm.org (where I'm still banned) to say he isn't the one who banned me, and I should unban him. Well, here's the thing: I'm not the one who banned you, Kindred, it's that annoying Nao from over at sm.org. I can't unban you until he's done with his grief.

Really, banning me is something totally out of proportion. It probably came down to a dilemma to them: should we keep a bad programmer with a bad karma on our team, but who currently owns 50 mods that were mostly given to him (and will still likely remove them if he's ousted), or keep a very good programmer who made just one mod, albeit the most popular one, and we can get him out without too many issues?

Well, they decided to ban me, so that they can both avoid more stories on internal team issues, AND keep Aeva online so that they get to have the best of both worlds.
Innit nice?

Now, logic would dictate that they either reinstate my account so that I could update my mods whenever I have something new ready to go, or... just delete the mods, and delete all of the Aeva and SMF Media Gallery topics, and everything -- after all, they're all over the stats page (most replied topics, most viewed topics...), and none of them can be written to by their main 'target'.

Yes, I was banned two days ago.
I'll take some time off, yes.
