Re: Yes, particularly Glade3

Hello, Good Evening Ben, I just read this message because earlier today I was busy. I will say that that happens to be the first point of interest for me, but I am also interested in the code. But I want toet the website in sync with today, not last decade, as I told Elizabeth on IRC earlier today. I happen to have a website (though it's kind of stuck right now) was meant to be a social network but I kind of just quit after I got bored - most projects end up finished. I will say that as soon as I get the chance, I want to use a similar light blue and dark blue scheme as exhibited on this site, though it may need to be a bit lighter to match aesthetically with the theme. Also, general question here, is it time to mark PHP-GTK 1 and 2 as archived, due to their age? And more importantly, is it time to stop using DocBook and XSL and actually write it ourselves? Just some food for thought, because this is what some say is difficult, but honestly, when the first release is made for PHP-GTK3, wouldn't it make sense to write documentation specific to the new one? I realize PHP-GTK3 works fine, but if you want Glade and other things, you're pretty much SOL. Just wanting some feedback because this is probably one of the most important part for people other than the software itself. We need documentation and tutorials, which partially helped me until "Hello Glade." Anyways, is it just me, or is it when I came barreling in here, did everyone else just follow? LOL ;) Not a bad thing for a project that needs people to join! --MGage-- > On Jun 22, 2015, at 2:37 PM, Ben Ramsey <ben@benramsey.com> wrote: > > On Mon, Jun 22, 2015 at 12:19 PM, Gage Morgan <gagemorgan@outlook.com> > wrote: >> >> As for the website, does anyone here think a wiki would fit?
