Hey Chris...
[^]...the original post was rather long, so I tried to modify it and put in a link to the article...but, even though the text box only showed down just the '***' line, the post still shows the addition text that was deleted

I originally just posted a link to a page that had the text of the article I was making reference to...but the page also had adult humor, so I modified the original message text replacing the link with just the text of the article...later, I found other links that only contained the article and tried to modify the post again trying to replace the (long) text with one of the newly discovered link (in consideration of those who still have to deal with dialup). That is when the "oops" showed up...

We need to have a few other discussion boards.
1. Assembly Discussion Board
2. Reverse Engineering Discussion Board
3. Debugging Discussion Board
4. C Programming Discussion Board
5. Driver Discussion Board
6. OpenGL/D3D/DDraw/Graphics Discussion Board
7. Mathematics/Algorithms Discussion Board
8. Security Discussion Board
9. AI/Nueral Nets Discussion Board
10. OS Development Dicussion Board
At a minimal we need #1.

Ok... first thing... the one-point vote is not mine. 
Reverse Engineering is generally a bad idea. Did you ever read software licences (EULA)?
Most companies don't allow reverse engineering their software. This is an official site, and so I think that "illegal" discussions will just make trouble.
C Programming board doesn't many any sense either, because we have a VC++ forum for both c and c++.
A driver discussion board is a nice idea, but the problem will be that there are not many driver programmers, so the forum will be as recently visited as the managed c++ board  .
OS development board? Why should we need such a thing? It's a microsoft site, so why supporting OS development?
Maths board is a good idea, I also proposed it some month ago. Chris read it, said that it's a nice idea, but nothing happend so far  .
Debugging board is also a nice idea, but all your other boards won't have many visitors.
Regards,
Alex

So, I guess I shouldn't post articles on how to use PSP for free? 
Don't compare driver developers to managed C++
So I can't bring all my buddies here?

Hehe, I'd never compare driver developers to managed C++ (I'm a driver developer myself).
Don't try it, just do it!

Reverse engineering IS legal in most countries, patent stealing is not.
|
|

One thing to keep in mind -- Reverse Engineering is legal if it's for the purpose of maintaining compatibility. This is very typical when getting code to work on one system to another or implementing a product feature. I do this at my job, I know people who have worked at other places (such as star dock) who have done the same for the same reason.

General Discussions is a redundant forum.
Maybe the following forums should be added as a replacement for "General Discussions":
Application Software Discussion - talking about application software only
Software Under Development - talking about software you're writing, but not talking about the coding part.
Hardware Discussion - duh...
And while I'm on the subject:
I still think that CP should adopt a better message board setup. I think something like PHP-BBS would be better than what we have now. It takes FOREVER to scrollback through posts if you simply want to monitor a thread in the current system.
And how about an honest-to-god IRC channel for live chat? I say "honest-to-god" because I prefer to use a real IRC client instead of web-based solutions because a real client app is *faster* than anything you could do through the browser. For people that insist on using the browser, you could still setup a feed from an IRC chat room.

I agree with having a code project IRC channel and a better message board. Of course there is always existing channels
#asm
#win32asm
#winprog
#gamedev
#coders

If you like reading and writing design docs, are willing to sign an NDA and enjoy having me be grumpy at you if things aren't done in time (meaning, yesterday ) then sure! Fire me an email
cheers,

I am married, grumpy does not affect me anymore 
Email sent your way.

I've just been browsing the C# controls section to see if anybody had written an article on a control I was looking for. And boy, there are a lot of articles on that page (http://www.codeproject.com/cs/miscctrl/[^]) but then splitting up the page is already on your to-do list.
I think it may be a good idea to have a thumbnail of an article's primary image on the page. That way I could see the kind of control that the article describes without having to load up each page that sounds like it matches my needs.

That's all client side javascript. I've never heard of it being slow before.

after a little more investigation, it seems like it's only slow on my work PC. at home, it builds really quickly. at work, there's a 3-4 second delay most of the time (sometimes it's much longer).
odd.
