Aeva Media / Re: Compatibility problems with RC4 and PortaMX ?
« on: 19 November 2010 à 10h45 »
I've had my own run-ins with Feline and have to say that if you happen to disagree with her that you have to work hard to be seen as right thereafter.
So it's even more to your credit that you actually didn't see a problem in me inviting her over to our private boards.
(Actually you should have told me you'd had problems with her... I've never seen a single dispute where I thought you were in the wrong. Can't say the same for me :P)

I remember the time she flat out asked SlammedDime if he had a computing degree (like it was somehow relevant) in the SimpleSEF thread on sm.org for example (whereupon I joined in, since I certainly don't hold a computing degree of any kind)
Lol.
Well, neither do I. I mean, I don't hold any degree whatsoever. I have my Bac (high school graduation exams), but I was too late to register for computer studies, so I chose someone else that bored me to death, stopped it, and in the meantime I developer an interest for the Japanese language so I went into Japanese studies instead (less crowded), after a year I found work as a translator so I dropped out during year 2 because I couldn't do both at the same time. Then I released KMJ and never had to actually work for anyone else, ever. So why bother with a degree... :o)

Ah ah...
Seriously, she's CENSORING my posts? And she lies about the reason she removes them? (Seriously, the post was addressed to HER, how can she consider it as a PM between me and spoogs?!?!)

Don't tell me it's a language barrier here. A German jerk is just as much of a jerk as a French jerk to me. And she's complaining that SMF treats her badly but she doesn't see a problem in saying ill of others in their backs, and then censoring their replies!

If I ever was hesitating to include a portal by default in our fork, it would have seriously helped me take a decision, ah ah.

Hello together and sorry for my inspection of aeva code discovering the problem with output buffer.
Why would you have to be sorry?

I followed the threads here and on portamx and it's a shame, that devs are going to "hade" eachother.
As I said -- I have no hate of her.
But the fact that she's willingly deleting my posts, probably to prevent her "customers" the pain of having to go through a post that questions the very existence of her "corporation", well, THAT doesn't say much good about her.
Quote
Fel's main language seems to be german (as mine) and she's really not "nice" to bad or wrong questions but Nao - you also keep your answer's really short to your "customers".
Free "customers" are not customers -- they're users, that's all. I still devoted over two years to provide free support for them, while juggling with plenty of tasks.
Paying customers are happy with the support I'm providing, AFAIK. (Well, that WE're providing, since it's a team work, too. And thanks to my helpers, really.)
Quote
I hope, dev's are not going to "hade" eachother and coding goes on next weeks so all people have fun with SMF, AEVA, PORTAmx and all other useful mods on this world.
"hading" sessions generally do not eat time out of my work sessions.

I'm thinking of two things right now:
- I'll delete the Aeva Lite copyright from AeMe2. Totally unused. Gimme a sec... Done. Will be in the next update, whenever that happens. And AeMe2 users are from this moment on, allowed to delete the copyright from the auto-embedder process. That is, edit Aeva-Embed.php and empty the "aevacopy" function (just remove everything between the curly brackets "{}"). If you know about PHP code, you may also remove the function entirely, as well as the associated onload calls.[1]
- I should probably move this topic to the public AeMe board. I'm sure she'll appreciate that since she's censoring my post, I'm reposting it, along with ALL the bad things I *NOW* have to say about her behavior, in a public and popular place where she has to influence at all. That's her problem.
 1. NB: this will not fix any PortaMx bugs, but this copyright stuff made me think about it all. Obviously, once our fork is out, you can get a gallery, portal and other stuff that don't sport any copyright notices, because they'll be in the credits area anyway, rather than the footer. It will be frowned upon not to put any mod credits through a specific hook, which is called on the credits area and maybe called on mod pages as well. (Not the call to the hook, but a call to the function you hooked, obviously. Anyway! I'm getting lost myself.)

Yeah, basically my days are spent like this:
- 20% to 40% forforkwork, err, for fork work. (Programming, discussing features, checking each other's work...)
- 40% to 30% (depending on how busy the day is), for online 'leisure' time. (I mean browsing wikipedia, imdb, geek sites and the likes -- not porn, you pervs.)
- 20% to 30% for real life. (I know, it's boring but there's also THAT life over there to deal with!)
- 10% for the rest. That includes AeMe support, but not only[1]. Also answering e-mails. And I have a HUGE backlog of unanswered e-mails. A shame.

So really, the fork is a priority, but AeMe is still part of my life. I'm just not interested in supporting it as part of the crappy SMF world. I really, really don't want to hear about SMF and their "ways".

Oh, and thanks everyone for providing support when I'm not looking! Sometimes I'll go through the backlog and see that I have nothing to say because, well, others helped before I did. I should start paying you guys :P
 1. No, still not porn.

So... You won't repost, I guess?
I know, that Feline is a very good programmer as you both are too,
And I'm sure she is.
Quote
so it would be good, if she could do her PortaMX also for your fork.
If she could stop being so full of contempt to someone who she's never talked to (apart from the fork invite), and whose work she obviously never has had a look at...
I very rarely go to the AeMe topic at sm.org but I found this a minute ago:
http://www.simplemachines.org/...c=200401.msg2851583#msg2851583
She's saying I have "bad programming practices". Obviously, she hasn't had a look at AeMe.
And of course, anything that's being said about my copyright insertion routine is wrong. Heck, anyone can look at it... It works just fine. It's the same as in Aeva Lite. It injects a HTML node into the footer div, and if it can't find it, it simply adds to the body (i.e. below the header.)
Quote
I think she has a partner in her corporation.
I have an invisible friend called Gertrude just as well, and I still don't call myself a corporation.
Quote
Maybe she develops also other software not related to PortaMX.
Seriously, you know what a corporation is...? :^^;:

If she really has a "partner", then that must be "him"...
http://portamx.com/topic_1797.0.html
Nicknamed "P.", for "PortaMx". Oh, and writes the exact same way as Feline does...

I'll say it again: she's alone on this. She just thinks it sounds more serious (and better for her business) to call herself a corporation.
Quote
Would be good, if you would look into each other´s software,
when time permits and don´t "hade" each other... :gnehe:
She's really not helping. <sigh>
Quote
P.S: I just saw, that you also run here RC4 now.
I've been running it since day one... Actually since day-1, because Noisen has always been up to date with the latest development revision. Beta tester, remember?
Of course, now that they're no longer willing to give me back my badges (even after I restored the SMF copyright), it's no longer going to be the case. Not that it matters anyway... You know my feelings about the team. And their boss is a liar.
Quote
Do you also use SimpleSEF 1.1.1 or how do you do the
URL Rewrite things here at noisen ?
Why would I use SimpleSEF...?
I helped write PrettyURLs, back in 2007. So I'm using PrettyURLs. A heavily customized version which I'm redoing for the fork, too. (Out of the box support for subdomains. Which is a PITA.)

Hmmm, not her first time saying nice things about me...

Aeva Media / Re: A cautionary tale for Aeva haters...
« on: 17 November 2010 à 16h39 »
Yeah, the tag concept is something we discussed at yourasoft.org a year ago, when we started building the software that was supposed to rock... (And which quickly went into oblivion because the team was trying too hard to avoid doing things the SMF way. Uh.)
I actually considered adding that to our fork, because, well, I have a tag system here on noisen, and it's easy enough to implement. We have a feature (not currently implemented, so much to do!) where topics are no longer linked to boards, but can be linked to other node types. A tag would be a good (and easy) node type, obviously.

"He hade me, because I have disagree to the SMF fork"

I don't "hade" you, I never said I hated you anywhere, and it is not the case.
I do, however, have a problem with you as a person, and I will address that below.
The ONLY reason I contacted you was that I was annoyed by how the SMF team wouldn't listen to your performance improvement suggestions because you have a strange way of talking to people. And I can relate. So I took the liberty to actually invite you to do that job on our forum, because we would be willing to discuss them, and actually implement them into our fork.
So you were invited, you joined us, then you sent me that PM on September 23. Only one message, and you disappeared. I don't even know if you read my (longish) answer. Here's the contents of the PM, as it totally contradicts what you're saying (because you imply that you disagree with the concept of a, or our, SMF fork):
Quote
Thanks Nao for sharing the link to this forum.
I have read a lot of postings and I will tell you what I think;

1.. Only two Developer is too less for a project like this (same problems as SMF itself).
2.. Without testing the code (the project) I can't involve the PortaMx corp.
3.. I's a fork and the license rights are not cleared

So for the moment I can nothing do or more say as I do.
If you have a license for this project and you're ready to share the rights to the PortaMx corp., we can make a deal.

Fel
That was totally clueless.
So, how can you pretend that I "hade" you when it is *you* who actually were hostile to me?
I won't copy my long PM, but it basically said: (1) we have enough devs. We're working fulltime on it and are doing way more work than the SMF team on this. "PortaMx" is a single person, too, does that prevent you from working on it? (2) We weren't asking you to test our code, we were just asking you to share your ideas about our implementation concepts, and possible ways of making them faster, or choosing better coding practices. We may not *need* counseling, but we're open to external opinions. No one but us has access to the code and it will remain so at least until we go public. (3) I already discussed that -- our fork won't go public until SMF2 Gold is out, and then it'll be forkable. We just decided to begin our work ASAP because it then gave us time to rewrite large parts of the code.

I wasn't asking to "make a deal" with you, just to share ideas. I wasn't asking to share "rights" to our fork, because it's not a commercial business.
In all honestly, I was offended by your PM, but then I realized that your English is really bad and you probably didn't understand much of what I said.
So I just ignored you from that day. But I don't "hade" you. You haven't done anything to me. The only thing I really don't like about you, is how you insist on calling yourself a corporation. "Have a cigar." That's not our spirit. We're just Pete and Gilles. These idealistic coders who will do anything to get SMF out of the mess it put itself in.

That's all I had to say.

Can't access topic.

Anyway... I read a few of her posts... She's really not an easy person to deal with, is she? :rolleyes:
Maybe if she did some work on her English, I don't know...

98
This has been discussed within the private area already...
I don't know what exact output buffer conflicts with my resetter code, though. It's obviously linked to feline's on-the-fly addition of her copyright notice.

99
I have no problems with YT myself...

100
Well, I don't support Aeva at all. Only Aeva Media 2.x... (Others can answer your questions, obviously, but not me.)

101
Sorry, no, only PayPal...

« on: 12 November 2010 à 12h01 »
The SMF API should be enough to help you write a bridge if that's what you want... Although it's not up to date and buggy here and there. (I don't know if they released the version with my fixes. I don't even know if it can be downloaded at all.)

hartiberlin, look for 'watermark' in the sm.org mod site, obviously... (?)
Then you should be able to find an AeMe plugin for that mod in their official topic or somethin'.

SlammedDime made SimpleSEF? Well, screw him...

Switch your forum to English by adding ?language=english to the URL...

Aeva Media / Re: [Announcement] Fork you, SMF!
« on: 11 November 2010 à 23h30 »
Pretty much it, yeah.
Actually, I can do that, but I just can't be made happy. If I'm getting paid for something, I'm a sellout. If I'm doing things for free, I'm a fool. So I just chose not to do anything for anyone unless I'm enjoying it myself.

« on: 11 November 2010 à 23h18 »
Well, how will your fork compare to
the Simple-Press.com
Forum for wordpress ?
Well, how do you think Simple:Press compares to SMF?
To me, SMF is way better than Simple:Press in every area... (Even bbPress is BY FAR better than Simple:Press...)
I don't really see how we could 'compare' SP with our fork then. Our fork will just be better.

As under wordpress there is a really nice gallery script nextgen gallery
I've never looked into it. (Never looked into any gallery system after I started work on SMG, actually. So I only know of Coppermine and Gallery2. Which both sucked.)
In what way is it any good?
Quote
I wonder, if I should not move completely to this platform.
It's up to you.
Quote
Well, we will see, what will be the best system to use in the future.
WP has had the momentum for a few years now. It won many prizes. Not because of its robustness, but because it has become the de fact blogging platform and many developers are thus working on improving it.
Now, WP is just that -- a blogging platform. I don't really see much of a point in building a CMS out of it. I dunno.
Quote
I will hope Nao will still make paid versions of Aeva available for the standard SMF
version, so we still could get bug fixed, if somebody wants to use now
SMF 2.0RC4.
Well, if a bug is found... I'll fix it and update my AeMe SVN. And when there's enough crap to release, I'll release.
What I know, though, is that any media code I'll add in the fork, won't be ported back to AeMe. Too complicated.
Quote
Also it would be great, if one could choose the layout in the AEVA admin panel,
where to have the comments or image details info box, etc...
I think I'll try doing something like that.
Dunno if it could be overridden for specific albums, too.
Quote
I would be willing to pay for this, as I need it now and will
need to get this project finished now.
Paying for what?
