Just some thoughts: I've seen lots of people link to other sites on thelist with code libraries of sorts, with sections on clientside JS, ASP, CF, PHP, SQL, VB, whatever. It'd be cool if Evolt had an area to submit code samples to that was a little more orderly than our current (somewhat) random assortment of information... sorted by categories and by type, perhaps? I've got a coupla code chunks I'd happily contribute, but as it is, they'd just get lost in the shuffle. It'd be nice if all ASP code was in one section, all CF in another, etc. On a similar note, what if we wanted to have mini collaborative development projects, e.g. someone builds a basic code set in ASP for generic form validation, for example. Someone else adds some functionality, and someone else improves it still further. Is there a way to control versioning and the 'final' code? Perhaps Evolt could develop its own code library this way, kind of mini Mozilla-like, with organized project management and online status? Just dreaming... ;-)

Just so you know, we're in a transition period right now. Currently we're running CF3 using an Access backend to make this puppy run. We're in the process of migrating to CF4 and Oracle on the db side. So, what's likely to happen then is we'll be shaking the evolt.org tree and trying to add many things, ordered subcategories among them. Stay tuned we're working on it. Maybe you'd like to be in on the site architecture discussion? Email djc@oracular.com for more info.

More Code Would Be Nice

I've always thought that having some more code listed on Evolt.org would be nice. But I'd hate to see it loose too much of how it currently gets used. It's nice to have a site that isn't about just being a big repository of user-submitted code.

Oracle?

How the heck do you pay for that one? Or is there some trick to not having to shell out thousands of dollars?
