blast007I'm working on the functional design for new sites. For managing members of groups, I was previously going to have per-group group managers, but now I'm considering just having per-organization group managers.  That'd be far simpler to code.15:24

blast007[m]Here's my rough plan for the improvement/creation of web applications for BZFlag: https://gist.github.com/blast007/ff89e7186262ceef9dacd26a224eb5de16:37
blast007[m]Oh cool, there's a Github Projects Beta that makes it more than just a kanban board.16:51

macsformeblast007: looks good on the whole... so we would not be adapting the current list to use IPv6, then? it would be part of the larger overhaul?21:07
macsformeI know it's a chicken-and-egg problem, but it does seem like a lot of effort compared to our small player base at the moment, whereas just implementing IPv6 on top of what we have now could make more user-facing enhancements possible (e.g., mobile versions), which in turn could grow our player base21:11
blast007it has to be on a different hostname anyway21:15
blast007it'll be similar to the existing list, but I'll be using Postgresql instead of MySQL, I won't be talking to the phpBB database directly, I won't be including phpBB files21:16
blast007I'd like to use JSON, but if that ends up too complicated I'll remove the IP address column from the server list21:17
blast007I'm not necessarily starting over completely with bzfls.php and related files, but I'm not adverse to throwing out anything that isn't useful21:20
blast007groups will still be named as they are now, but will be managed outside of phpBB21:20
macsformeokay, makes sense21:22
macsformealso, I forget where I originally saw the statistic, but IIRC there were tens of thousands of never-activated BZBB accounts... assuming that's still the case, somewhere in this plan it might be worthwhile to purge those21:22
blast00715905 inactive accounts21:24
blast007and yes, cleanup of those should definitely be done :)21:26
