| naudefj wrote on Tue, 15 September 2009 02:16 | Let me know what changes you want. I might be persuaded to implement some of them if you contribute to this project in some form (i.e. bounties, translation, design, etc.). Say for example, you put a bounty of $200 on "the next language below 50% that is completely translated" or something such.

Sure, I can do that. Here are the things I need fixed/upgraded:
1) Attachments included _before_ personal signature and nntp forum signature so that news clients connecting to nntp server directly don't strip attachments off as part of the signature.
2) charset of messages sent to nntp isn't correct. I can only speak for the german forums but the umlaut (as well as many others) don't appear correctly in news clients connecting to nntp server because the charset isn't correct. You can make the news client force the charset and it works but that is a kludge and shouldn't need to be done.
3) Wordwrap messages being sent nntp servers need to be wordwrapped. I've added the code for new messages but replies need to be wordwrapped before adding ">" characters in quoted message.
That's it. If I could fix those that would be great. If that is a bounty that would be useful to the project then I'll make it. How do I make that "official"?
James.

I'm sure we can do it for the NNTP forum signature. However, to do it for the personal signature might require too much code refactoring (will have to see when I start coding).
|
Please try to do both. I suppose I could disable personal signatures but that would not be good.

Should be doable (if it's not already fixed).
|
Good. My users will really like this.

Can you please post what you have so far?

See
http://fudforum.org/forum/index.php?t=msg&goto=158167&#msg_158167
And while you're in there don't forget
http://fudforum.org/forum/index.php?t=msg&goto=159627&#msg_159627
Not to be a pain, but once you get into it could you give me an ETA until when it will be live? I am currently running 2.8 so I could either apply a patch or upgrade to new version with these changes.
Cheers,
James.

We can deal with the scope creep later (I'm going on leave and need to wrap this up). Personally, I think you've got a bargain for $200 as I won't do this in daytime for several times this amount.
How do we proceed? Can you announce your bounty in the "Translations" forum? Say, "$100 for the next 2 (or 3 if you feel generous) languages below 50% that is translated to above 95%."
|
Wow, that was fast Frank. Thank you very much.
I assume it would be easiest if you roll this into the 3.0 (and not bothering patching back to 2. . How do I upgrade to the latest 3.0RC?
I'll be happy to test.
And yes, I'll announce the bounty with you being the moderator at who determines that the line was crossed and who crossed it first.
Cheers,
James.
