New Framework and Website Code Online
New Code online at svn, check out my sandbox.
Code Documents moved to online repository: codedocs.rainbowbeta.com
Solution cleaned to 5 projects ( 2 Duemitri which need to be replaced with master pages, and 3 Rainbow.Frameowrk projects)
Code solution + web project: ~48MB
Sample Sites already running thei Alpha 2.0 ( My developer sandbox !!!! Not for user production site !!! )
Registration problem has temporary workaround, so you can all register at the above two sites :-)
Localization is still a little bit buggy, but making progress.
(I think we need to get people to go over all the resource files to make sure they are all complete, and fully translated, I have noticed the problem becuase of my localization is that some controls don't have keys, so when they were refactored to hunt for keys.... ooops... it broke :-) Luckliy, i left a message in the code, "String not localize?" so when we find these, we know we need to add them to the resources and commit and then send for translation to whoever does each langauge.)
There are still plenty of known issues, and changes we want to make
- Country / Regions controls need to fixed and localized (This needs some help quickly)
- Modules with missing localization or strings
- More namespace cleanup, you can see many gaps and overlays when you look at codedocs
- Combine duplicate function modules (see forum thred)
- Firendly url's is not working, and need to be fixed, all pages write as default.aspx for now. (I am not sure how to fix this, so we really need some help here)
- Getting team together for Rainbow.Framework.Content
- Getting developers for Rainbow.Frameowork.Permissions
- Getting developers for Master Page Implementation ( the goal here is to either upgrade or mimic a zen or classic theme, so that CSS and images can stay the same, and only the layout engine would be new... if this is possible... i have given lot's of thought on this, and i think best bet is to modify/rewrite zen to use master page implentation instead of reading xml layout stubs... we can leave zen engine in place... and classic for backward support, and have new Rainbow.Framework.Web.UI.Layouts.MasterPages ( or whatever the namespace would be )
- Need designer ( possibly Sam? ) to take over all the included themes, and get the css cleaned up, and the images to be slightly original per theme... if not, remove them, and rely on default, there is no need to have duplicate images in rainbow, if you can fall back to default folder.... also, perhaps making easy quick upgrades and updates to each theme.
- Need to make progress on Membership and Roles implementations so we can clean all that code in the framework.
- Need to get main RainbowP
