[Phpmyadmin-devel] Re: a few thoughts
by Marc Delisle 04 May '01

04 May '01

Hi, bonjour, I am the network manager in "Collège de Sherbrooke", Québec (about 6000 students). I also develop internal apps in PHP, and I introduced PHP to some teachers here. We all use phpmyadmin, of course :) The tree split is ok for me. About being 8 developpers: I think if it becomes a problem for cvs sync, there could be less people committing changes, and more e-mailing of discussion and patches. About the future of phpmyadmin: - keep up with MySQL evolution - stay user-friendly - maybe database folders (to keep the left frame clean :) - maybe integrate an application/form generator... -- Marc Delisle

[Phpmyadmin-devel] [RFC] Re: cvs tree split
by Loïc 04 May '01

04 May '01

Hi All! My turn: I'm Loïc Chapeaux from Versailles, France. My main activy is to achieve a PhD in housing economics. So I'm not sure to have many time to spend on phpMyAdmin but I'll do my best. I'm sorry for Mirko but: - I'm older than him (30); - my other php scripting activity is... phpMyChat! No website and no photo, sorry (let's say I've got a Venusian face :D). If you won't dare, Olivier, I would like to add some comments to your original post: * please work with a reporting error level set to 'E_ALL' while developping, else we would have to reply to lots and lots of annoying mails * don't forget to use the 'garb_globals.inc.php3' library or at least to test the code with the 'register_globals' directive set to 'on' AND 'off' (same thing with the 'track_vars' directive for php3 and php4 < 4.02). Also ensure it runs with all the 'magic_quotes' directives positions. Hum... that's enough, isn't it? Have a good day, Loïc

AW: [Phpmyadmin-devel] [RFC] cvs tree split & a few thoughts - pl ease read
by Lycos.Compunet5＠Bertelsmann.de 04 May '01

04 May '01

hi developers, my name is mirko giese, i live and work in germany, actual for lycos europe. and damn, it looks like i am the oldest here: i'm 28. i have an other opensource-project, i'm working on phpOpenChat (http://www.ortelius.de/phpopenchat/) i work with php and mysql for about 5 years, starting with php/fi and msql then later going through php3 and now arrived at php4. that brings me to another aspect of this project: at this stage its - as far as i know - full compatibel to php3. that unfortunately reduces the number of good functions a lot. maybe it would be better to give away the php3-support (they still have the actul version working) and take all the advantages from php4 in the next version. what do you think? to the splitting in to trees: although this would meand more work for every developer i think thats a good idea. if we keep the development in the same tree as the last stable product and making the changes for our own, waiting to the point we have a stable patch, we may loose the advantage of cvs, to work together on problems. and as i know from other cvs-based projects: if you wait a long time with comitting, you get such horrible cvs-conflicts which takes a very long time to repair. ok, thats all for me regards from germany Mirko Giese > Lycos Europe GmbH > 33311 Gütersloh lycos.compunet5(a)bertelsmann.de mirko.giese(a)lycos-europe.com giese(a)foreach.de

[Phpmyadmin-devel] Table type: Default
by Marc Delisle 03 May '01

03 May '01

Robin Johnson, Thanks for this modification! I think it would be better to put "MyISAM" or some other default in the table type, because some people will use the choice "Default" and MySQL complains. Marc Delisle

[Phpmyadmin-devel] Suggestions
by Marc Delisle 03 May '01

03 May '01

Hi, First to introduce myself: I am happy to continue my contributions to phpmyadmin. I was the one that outsourced all the strings to make possible the multi-language version. (By the way, I suggest that all new strings be put in the english messages file, and a request be sent to the translators list about it. There are strings not outsourced in main.php3) Suggestion 1: At my site, most users don't have create_priv, and the "Create new database" box confuses them, especially new mysql users. I suggest to hide this box from those users. Suggestion 2: It would be useful to allow users to modify some parameters via the GUI, for example $cfgShowBlob. Also when editing a text field (blob), to be able to specify the size of the textarea. -- Marc Delisle Québec

[Phpmyadmin-devel] Features Completed/In-Progress

Please mark Feature 414807 (Table type in table creation/changing) as closed as I have completed it and placed it in the CVS. Can you also please mark Features 419841 (Maintainance Features on Properties Page) as assigned to me, as I intend to work on it next, and it should be done in the next few days. Feature 419830 (User Admin) is a nice long term goal, but I won't get there for a while yet. Robin Hugh Johnson "Robbat2" QTOD: "I used to be an idealist, but I got mugged by reality."

[Phpmyadmin-devel] About the feature request 420812
by Loïc 03 May '01

03 May '01

Hi all! I've some details about the feature suggested by Thomas Haluza (id 420812 in the Feature Requests tracker) and it sounds interesting. He's build a functionnal code but some bugs remains and he doesn't have time to work on them. Unfortunatly I don't know anything about the use of gzip with php so I can't help him. Maybe one of you.... ;) Regards, ______________________________________________________________________________ ifrance.com, l'email gratuit le plus complet de l'Internet ! vos emails depuis un navigateur, en POP3, sur Minitel, sur le WAP... http://www.ifrance.com/_reloc/email.emailif

[Phpmyadmin-devel] TODO List?
by Robin Johnson 03 May '01

03 May '01

I think a todo list would be a really helpful tool, so that we can be more productive with the project. I would propose the use of devtodo, but I'm not sure what tools the rest of you use while working on the code. I'm using it for my phpDNS project already, and it works nicely over CVS, making it easy for my co-developers to arranges things to get done. Personally I use nano from a terminal connection, buts thats just because of my (slightly) unusual setup. Robin Hugh Johnson "Robbat2" QTOD: "I used to be an idealist, but I got mugged by reality."
