It hasn't been talked about here, but another killer feature for me would be to allow users to add the events to their Outlook calendars. There have been hacks for this floating around, but I've never had the time to get them running. I guess this will have to wait given the fixed requirements though. :blahblah:
If not, we all realize that without the money sitting somewhere ready to be transferred - no one is going to implement this bounty.
I am assuming everyone is fine with jmucchiello coding this project.
Once jmucchiello takes the project, the feature list should be locked (unless the developer agrees with an addition)
jmucchiello what is your schedule here? Have you started or are you waiting until the pledges are collected or until your schedule opens up. Also, what is your ROUGH estimate of a time line to getting something for testing, as example, 20 hours in 1 week or 20 hours spread over a month.
I am sure one of us can hold the money but I think Dirk would be the best choice (if he has the time) since he has the account etc.. in place and is dealing with other bounties. Plus he will have to check the coding to make sure it meets the geeklog coding standards before incorporating into the build (unless he is spinning off this plugin).
Maybe 3 of the people who have time and who have made some of the larger pledges (they have more at stake) would like to take control of the requested features list. When any 2 says all features have been implemented, are bug free, and Dirk OK's the code, then the bounty can be paid.
So lets vote:
Feature List Locked?
- Yes
Money Handler
- My vote is for Dirk (if he wants too) or ttOne.
Requested Features
- Maybe a few people who submitted $200 would like to take this up?
