We've Been Community Serverized!

We’re now running CommunuityServer. Thanks to Scott Watermasysk for the great product, and Kevin Harder for his awesome .Text to Community Server Conversion Utility.

Also, thanks to Geoff who did all the research, and figured out much of the migration stuff. Once we can wrap our heads around this great new application, we’ll be doing some fun stuff.

Stay Tuned…

Brendan

If we were on DNJ, we'd still be fighting .text errors and comment spam !! I'm quite happy with my decision to move frankly.

This is ok, but some of the changes I don't particularly like. The title of each article looks clunky and you can't see the response count anymore. Other than that, it seems pretty good.

Just my .02

Geoff is showing up as Anonymous. LOL. I can tell it's Geoff by his comment tone though.

I wish there was a way to enter a name when entering a comment.

So it appears that only registered users can enter comments? For a community site like CodeBetter I certainly agree.

I just blogged on my issues with handling identity in CS around comments and functionality.

I'm thinking it would be nice to have a list of CodeBetter.com bloggers on your aggregated page when time permits. Have all of you .NET studs listed on one page.

Bottom line, if Sahil is happy with CodeBetter's new digs, then so am I!

Hi Dave!

We've opened up anyonymous commenting, although I 'm not quite clear about all the various config options yet. It's a big program! Did you have to login to comment?

Hey, Brendan. Yes, I had to login to see the "Post a comment" link. Yes, there are configuration switches aplenty in CS. Keep up the good work.

Dave Burke said:

Oh yes, I mentioned that it would be nice to see the CodeBetter bloggers on the aggregated home page and there they are. Thanks! I like it.

Stay tuned to read how I did it Dave.

Dave,

I really think CS needs lotsa fixin' before it can be called "a good and stable product".

But well, it has a few ups and a few downs compared to .TEXT.

sahilmalik, Stable? Yeap! Good? Probably. The Beefcake developers out there like Brendan are already discovering the inner beauty of CS, so I'll be keeping my eyes open.
