Some things still missing
  • starscreamstarscream November 2009

    - I'm really missing an actively used bugtracker and a list of active developers! Bugs should be linked to a developer and actively fixed; There are lot's of bugs here: http://code.google.com/p/simpleinvoices/issues/list, but where is linuxpcc? Those reports are from 2006;
    - There should also be a roadmap for future implementations (Mantis can do this automatically and most other solutions to);
    - We should either choose for Zend and implement all other libraries into it, or not use it at all. Zend is great, but it has a huge overhead. Using it partially is therefore not a real option in my opinion;
    - Coding standards...

    I think this product has huge potential, but I have a feeling that the code is getting a bit messy.

    hey starscream

    thanks for the post!

    re bugtracker
    - we've just trac, google code, etc.. but since i've started using the google code wiki for all things bugs/issues/plans its been alot better
    - refer: http://code.google.com/p/simpleinvoices/wiki/todo
    - yeah its not a real issue tracker - but they are to much work - and the wiki is great
    - bugs & plans go into todo
    - changelog = done page
    - known issues with each release in the known isues page
    - random ideas and suggestions in the ideas page
    - more random stuff in the notes page

    re linuxppc
    - thats my old gmail account :)

    re Zend
    - Zend is great - i agree that there are huge overheads to using the full on Zend MVC stuff
    - Simple Invoices was created long before ZF came onto the scene - thats why we've only used bits and pieces of the framework
    - if you want to help turn Simple Invoices into a real ZF based application then I'm all for it

    re standards
    - its been whatever works but i'm happy to start to move to the ZF coding standards
    -- refer: http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/coding-standard.html

    let me know your thoughts

    cheers
