Overview

The same way Google has summer of code, this idea is to have something like Google year of code.

We're talking about a website where the community can collectively fund projects (ie bounties), design them collectively and fund them collectively.

This session is to hear your thoughts and ideas about the matter.

Agenda

* FOSS Factory, an introduction
* Does the community need this model
* If so, what's the idea way of using it (ie implemented within the drupal website or left as an external site)
* what kind of problems would be posted on it, what level of expertise would be required to solve them.

Goals

Basically I would like to know if this idea makes sense at all, and if it does, I would like to know how to make it happen.

Building a website for Drupalcon.org is a challenging matter. There are lots of features to work with, the site should adapt to the needs at any time and of course should show that when Drupal is used to build its own conference website, it should do cool stuff for its attendees and other interested parties.

There were lots of design decisions made on the site given the needs we specified based on our look at previous Drupalcons and our own expectations. Sometimes existing modules fit well into our plans, quite a few times we needed glue code or our own code to do the work. Sometimes our own code resulted in superb end results but then also sometimes made mistakes. It also turned out that some of our design choices were not perfect and in some cases our implementation was not adaptive as we wished.

I hope to tell stories about these experience, dive into some details about the implementation, glue code, own code. You will most probably not get clear recipes, and definitely not ready to use code.

Ps. (If we have time and interest, we can get into the making of do.drupaltown.org - our management website for this event and lessons we learned using and sometimes not using that).

Session time:

Overview

The demo will show ajax tooling technology from ArtwareSoft.
We will show how you can take your existing drupal components such as views and data types and empower them with specialized interactive javascript UI.
The demo will focus on building the components with no coding, using both simple WYSIWYG approach for the simple cases and a rich specialized DSL with ajax IDE for the more complex cases.

Agenda

* Demonstration
* Discussion about the best ways to facilitate and exploit such a technology in the Drupal community.

Goals

Participants will meet and like the new technique, use it for their needs and contribute more styles, repository controls and drupal adapters for it.

Resources

Attendees are welcome to bring sample Xml's from which we will generate together the desired interactive views.
