Wedge

That's why we'll go alpha first :P
Just today, I realized the Print Page feature was broken. I'm currently working on fixing it.Oh -- I'll just ignore that after a while. I'd rather ignore stuff than jump into another pointless flamewar. (Even if I kinda miss a few of last year's flamewars, ah ah... Well, not that much.)And I see that it hasn't changed. Same crap, even a year after -- even after all these FAQs I wrote. Even after all the changes I wrote in the code to make it support-free really. Pete had the same problem with SimpleDesk. The bigger and the better the work, the more people will look into it -- and unfortunately it also means the more idiots will. :PMaybe I should write a feature for Wedge where when you post something, Wedge analyzes the message, then analyzes the 2 last posts and if the answer is in there, it redirects you to a lolcatz. That would be swell.We'll have to rely on others for that, I'm afraid. Pete tried to document the source code files but stopped after doing the big ones (Load.php, Subs.php etc), it's really a tedious job. I personally wouldn't do that for anything. My idea is that if your feature needs documentation, then it's not intuitive enough. Also, for modders I've tried to comment my code as much as possible (considering the fact that I rarely comment my own code), so if one can't figure out what my code does, I'd rather not have them release a plugin for Wedge anyway :PWedge started small. We started by cleaning up the pointless code. Then we added our own mods to the thing. At that point we were expecting SMF2 to go live soon, and to release our code immediately. When it became clear that they were going to be very late, we started adding more features. We're trying not to add big features without planning them out carefully, so these days we're mainly doing maintenance on the alpha codebase. The only thing missing from the intended alpha release is the integration of Aeva Media. I think I'm halfway through it but I haven't touched the code in weeks now. Porting mods over to Wedge won't be easy, I'm telling you. However, it's compensated by the fact that it's much cleaner, too, and more powerful.We take deep breaths from time to time. Last month I took a few days' break to play Radiant Historia. :lol:
Pete is currently busy on other things like he is from time to time, so he's not as active as I am, but he always makes up for it by adding a few big features everytime he comes back. Aranator: "I'll be back!" And he always is.We have our private area. I'll be posting there the most, as usual. I'll leave the public spamming to Pete. :niark:

Thanks. Yeah, interestingly either of us are probably the only guys who could manage an entire fork alone. The fact that we teamed up turned this sweet impossible dream into a nightmare of ambitious reality :)

Plus, honestly I was a bit eager to show that the SMF team kicking me out for not "being able to work in a team" was just bullshit. It was just politics, and I'm still convinced of it. Pete and I make a great team, really. In the future, once Wedge is stable, we'll probably add new developers to the team, too. We already have 4-5 people under scrutiny eheh.Heresy! I'm still the top spamm poster here :niark:
Not by much, though. It's amusing that even if we don't always post in the same topics, we manage to stay within each other's view in terms of spamming!FAQ. Wedge.org is based off Noisen.com's codebase, which is my own custom SMF. Much of this code isn't on par with my current quality checks, so I've rewritten a lot of it -- and Pete has, too.
Also, the thought system is private here. i.e. if you're not a Friend, you can't view convos.Nope, it's a horrible theme I cooked up very hastily back in August. I made a few tweaks to it but not much. It still sucks, compared to my work on Wedge's theme. Really. Well, I'm very happy with Wedge's Wine styling at the very least. I made three themes for Wedge so far, and Pete is currently working on one (based off Wine). We'll discuss stylings later. Basically, they're Wedge's equivalent of SMF2's variants. Only, much, much more powerful and way cooler.

The name was born here, months before the fork itself: http://yourasoft.org/forum/index.php?topic=534.msg20569#msg20569

(And no, it has nothing to do with Star Wars or its derivative Final Fantasy character.)

It just stuck with me, I knew I had to use it at some point. Perhaps the name made me want to create a fork, after all... :)

BTW, when you search Google for "wedge fork", the first result is funny. ("Is a fork a wedge?")

Welcome everyone. :)

Feel free to share your feelings about the project!

Which one? There are many random slogans in the top left corner ;)

Woohoo.... 44k links to Wedge.org already :niark:

Maybe I should look into my stats... I don't even know where to look ahah!

It's been so long, and I still haven't got inspiration to write a proper announcement... So why don't we just, I don't know... Take bits from the data available on the public board? I'm sure it can make for a proper announcement message altogether.

Or maybe simply, "Go to wedge.org if you dare" :P
