What about the other plugins page? Wouldn\'t it make sense to keep everything in the same place?

http://sourceforge.net/projects/geeklogplugins/
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gl-webservices/
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gplugs/
and even
http://sourceforge.net/projects/openpp/
http://sourceforge.net/projects/lccs/

Getting messy!

Yes us programmers are a territorial lot and sometimes contentious -- no one wants to give up control. Look at all the good projects that have failed because of conflicts between the people involved.

To be fair I did not set up another place but just moved the one that grew up at my personal site.

I do not have control of those other places, even though I have access at some of them. The present admins of the other sourceforge sites have not set up websites at them, preferring to give support elsewhere. That is their prerogative.

I share your frustration about the multiplicity of sites and have attempted with some success in the past to get geeklog programmers to work together. I have sent personal invitations to others to join me at my present site. I welcome all overtures to merge sourceforge projects. What else should I do? How are you going to help?

Tom

Yes, I understand your point - it was just an observation, not a complaint. And the crunch is, as you say, \"How are you going to help?\" I know that developers get frustrated with people taking them for granted, but there are a lot of us who are very grateful for all your efforts. Keep up the good work!

I\'ll see what I can do from January - I don\'t have much in that way of PHP skills, but I\'m sure I can help with languages. At the moment though I have five days to finish a thesis and that means no time for unnecesary things like sleep, eating, personal hygiene, etc. Well, maybe personal hygiene...

Cheers,

Euan.

I'm totally in support of combining everything into one area. Can't we all play nice. I think that there should be a poll held on the Geeklog site to see what the community thinks. I haven't seen much conflict amongst the Geeklog community and that's one of the reasons why I'm such a big fan of it.

Tom, you're plugins rock and I'm sure that I speak for many when I say "THANK YOU SO MUCH!" I think that you've started a nice trend of distributing easy to install plugins rather than so called "plugins" that turn out to be hacks. I'm guilty of it myself. =(

Anyways, I'd like to see all the Geeklog accessories in one location rather than 10.

Happy Holidays!
