that is no where near on the landing page of 1,000's of your visits.Gert wrote:Look here: http://www.cmsimple.org/en/?CMSimple___ ... e_Featuresmikey wrote:what has Gert contributed to the latest version of cmsimple ???
it's like you want all your visitors to browse your whole site to even find those links
that's no where near good enough for all those people that have made cmsimple what it is
Re: A collaborative community is needed
Ooooh, it seems to grow new thread that will only confise, disturb, disgust and disorient the comunity. Please, think about what it is worth.
OTOH, Gert, I read on your website
1. Eventhough you continue in your projects under CMSimple name, the core of your versions has only very limitted relationship to the old CMSimple. It is strong developed on the basics of ***_XH. And all this was achieved with strong support of ***_XH community. Are you ashamed to mention this? Do you feel to be definitely divorced from ***_XH?
2. The templates offered on your site have to be delivered with a link "Powered by CMSimple", linking to "www.cmsimple.org" - why? Only because they are mentioned/downloadable from your website? How about a user of another model of CMSimple??? will just find suitable template by a link on your site but will use it with his own installation other than any of your CMSimple?
Gert, are you definitely sure about not needing the entire old community anymore? Hundreds of members who helped to make CMSimple??? what it is today? Adding questions and feedbacks that heleped to extend features and fix bugs? We have a joke about this: "What's our in common it's mine too. And what's mine it's none of your business". I don't like this approach very much and I don't think the community in general likes it either. It's also a saying "Don't slapp the door you may need to open tomorrow!"

I fully respect your points what doesn't mean I agree with all of them. But I am confused about the lack of some indisputable information on your new sites.www.cmsimple.org wrote:Community Templates...
There are thousands of templates for CMSimple available in the www, but sometimes in a horrible code quality.
In the interest of the project CMSimple I will define a few conditions for template designers, who want to offer their templates on cmsimple.org.
CMSimple template designers can offer their templates here, if the following conditions are fulfilled:
...
All templates have to be delivered with a link "Powered by CMSimple", linking to "www.cmsimple.org".

It's no shame to ask for an answer if all efforts failed.
But it's awful to ask without any effort to find the answer yourself.

Re: A collaborative community is needed
Tata, these sayings make a lot of sense. It is ok that someone like Gert want to earn a little money, but it is not nice to monopolize the common work of a community.Tata wrote: We have a joke about this: "What's our in common it's mine too.
