Bonjour Carl,
I would happily join my forces to a true open-source, collaborative Carrara
forum/gallery/mailing list system built around the current 3DXtract system or
re-designed from scratch.
I have done more energy than I should have to collaborative works that finally
were not really collaborative, neither open-source, and I don't want to go on
that route again.
Please start to built a basic collaboration system, where we could discuss
openly about strategies for 3DXtract, where we could see and propose code,
where decisions are shared in some way.
I suggest sourceforge.net, which already offer all the necessary tools for
collaborative works.
I also suggest Bugzilla, which has no equivalent for bug reporting.
I see no reason why 3DXtract could not, at some point, replace the Yahoogroups
if a few dozen programmers work on it.
You know, Yahoogroups is based on a technology dated from the end of the 90'.
It has been completly deserted by programmers for many years, apart some minor
bug correction.
SO it would not be difficult to do much better.
But once again, I won't give any help if it is not an open-source,
collaborative project.
