Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: New user to BASE

Hi again

Sorry for my tone yday.  I appeared to be addressing Alex negatively but in fact 
i do know he has done and continues to do a lot of hard work to help Base 
users.  There are quite a few people that do and quite a lot more, no doubt, 
that would give more time if they were able to or if there was a structured 
team.  


I don't know how to set-up a team to do something like that.  
Regards from
Tom :)

Hi :)
It would be great to put all that effort into developing Base, or managing the 
project to attract a few devs into that part of the project.  It's not something 
a single person can do tho.  It needs a LOT of people to jump into it.  I guess 
that is why so many people work on various different single-purpose front-ends.  


There is no management bringing all those people together so each person ends up 
feeling like they are very alone.  

Regards from
Tom :)

Sure, any programming language that allows you to build a graphically
driven frontend. AFAIK, Python can do that with tcl, wx, gtk, and no
doubt other graphical toolkits so why not ? ;-)


I actually went scouring for stuff like that the other day on
sourceforge because I need to have a frontend I can design, implement
and distribute over a network and multiple-OSes. I haven't had time to
try the various bits out yet though, most of which looks PHP-based (but
only because I have a vague understanding of PHP - my  python skills are
way too low to attempt something like that at the moment, but I did give
it some thought :-))
