Hi :) Is the forum idea still current? I can have this done and give you access to the server/hosting too if you like. you can even make it a subdomain like forum.camping.io Thanks and Regards David +1 shorter domain name*Jenna Fox* a at creativepony.com <camping-list%40rubyforge.org?Subject=Re%3A%20%2B1%20shorter%20domain%20name&In-Reply-To=%3C0F440C54DB5C4659827D866D50EFA085%40creativepony.com%3E> *Tue Jan 31 15:55:44 EST 2012* - Previous message: Camping 2.2 pre-release<http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/camping-list/2012-January/001801.html> - Next message: +1 shorter domain name<http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/camping-list/2012-January/001803.html> - *Messages sorted by:* [ date ]<http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/camping-list/2012-January/date.html#1802> [ thread ]<http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/camping-list/2012-January/thread.html#1802> [ subject ]<http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/camping-list/2012-January/subject.html#1802> [ author ]<http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/camping-list/2012-January/author.html#1802> ------------------------------ Just thought it worth mentioning, we now collectively do own camping.io - this is where judofyr''s site will go when it''s ready, and we''re planning to use github pages as hosting for now (yes, we won''t be running it as a dynamic camping website, seeing as we can''t think of any good dynamic functionality) Speaking of dynamic functionality.

Any idea is active if someone is making it. Want to make us a forum? :D My only worry with things such as this, is that community resources could make the project look a little dead and hopeless, if people keep using the mailing list primarily. One of the things I''d thought about was a forum-type-thing for all of _why''s former projects, and like minded creatively fuelled gizmos and gadgets - it would help foster a better community of creative people doing cool stuff and helping each other out, as well as hopefully having enough scale to never seem inactive. ?

I''m all for this! And it should be built with Camping, the fact that the Camping site isn''t running on top of Camping is embarrasing enough as it is. -- Skickat fr?n min Android-telefon med K-9 E-post.

Hello Jenna, Making a forum is not a big issue. What you raise is a valid concern thou: what you don''t want is an empty forum. I think we need to work in stages so I will try to do some work in stages with Isak (that has more camping coding experience than I have under his belt) perhaps starting with screencasts and a small site in camping to host these. Better to do things first and then we see :) If you like it this could go on a subdomain learn.camping.io or anywhere really.
