What would you like to see out of wxBlog?

What would like to see out of wxBlog?

Current ideas are:
- Weekly recaps
- Just major events

Maybe this with personal commentary by
developers and former developers?

This blog was started not really out of
personal need, but more out of some of
the ideas on the developer's mailing list. I
(Ryan) will of course try to have a little fun
every now and then as well.

Feel free to comment!

Having this blog is extremely important. It lets us know what's going on the wxWidgets "backstage", and would give us a preview of what's coming. It also give us that "alive" feeling.

I particularly would like to see here:

- Recaps (maybe every 2 weeks)
- Upcoming features
- Release schedules

Polls about certain development issues could be interesting.

Good ideas Jorge. For now, my though is something like

-every few days, sporadically, commentary about certain development issues; usually latebreaking CVS stuff

-bi-weekly development recaps

-Release schedule updates (these will probably be rare :D)

-Occasional polls and talks about upcoming features

I'd also appreciate regular recaps.

Like Ryan Norton, i think commentary about developpement issues would be nice.

But i think also that blog should be not only a developpement discussion place, but can be usefull way for the wxWidgets developers to express their daily feelings or jokes.

I'd like to see a post dealing with the announcement that VLC 0.8.6 will drop wxWidgets in favor of Qt4.

For some strange reason, it seems that you posted an entry dealing with VLC switch from wxWidgets to Qt4 (as previously requested) and you erased it afterwards.

I don't think this blog entry is important. What might be important is to contact VLC developers to know what the annoying bugs were (and to fix them, if this is possible or even desirable).

[Sorry if I am too asertive. I'm not a developer, nor even a contributor, since I cannot code.]
