Common Control Library - Have a set of controls that have the exact same interfaces for both Web or WinForm. Ths code inside the presentation layer would be the same for both. Controls would give the same appearence but maybe with a setting on a control to determine if a lighter weight version of the control should be used (less graphics and control if bound by bandwidth) but still remain transparently identical to the calling code.
I have a couple articles on that:
http://www.codeproject.com/cs/miscctrl/DynamicForms.asp[^]
http://www.codeproject.com/cs/miscctrl/DynFormPartII.asp[^]
Want to work with me on developing them further (after a redesign of the initial concept, I should think!)

I'm almost finished with the next article in the AAL series that uses XML for GUI generation. The last one, http://www.codeproject.com/cs/menu/AAL-4.asp[^] uses XML to generate menus (I'll need to send you a better version of the source if you're interested in this).

the .NET internal buggy databinding
Buggy how? I've dabbled with it a bit with the XML Data Editor I put together. Seemed fine, except what pisses me off is that you have to press the Tab key for it to recognize that a field changed in value. Probably can be fixed, but I didn't bother looking.

Oh yeah, I forgot, for those that have never done web work, it would allow them to build a WinForm app, make a few adjustments and have a web application running!
Exactly. The worst thing though is the state stuff. Have to figure that part out. Anyways, want to work together on your idea?

There are several things that cause problems. Once of them is when working with tab pages. Another once that is more of a hassle than a bug, when using multiple comboboxes with that may select key values and changing one changes the others. The one that bit me the most is the rebinding needed if you should use different datasets. You can to clear and merge your sets to maintain the binding. There were others but those are the ones still fresh in the old memory

I missed those. Now I have more reading to do Browsing over them though, it appears we are in the same ballpark. I did not see how you use the controls yet (still have to look through them). I would think it would be easier to use custom built controls that all share the same common interfaces regardless of web or WinForm. Yeah know, kind of like splitting the presentation layer away from the core of the control and have it implement the actual IO dependant on platform. There may not be enough in common though to justify it.
As an example, if you have to add a custom column to a grid control, your code for the display has to be completely different. It may be hard, but imagine if the code you wrote for a window was actually the same code as you would write for the web page (at least the code behind). Same events, same contols interfaces, same databinding. It really just pushes the "presentation layer" down lower into the controls themselves.
I may be way out there though, I have not spent enough time examining what is actually possible.

State is a problem in many ways Actually, it doesn't sound like just my idea, seems the goal is in both camps Would be interesting!

Basically a source control system analyzing code to eliminate duplicates. Thus an improvement to algorhytm X will be reflected in all projects using the pattern of algorhytm X.

Isn't that already a feature in Source Control Programs?
I use shared files in Source Safe, and get exactly that...

I would like to see some development in the WTL area. It would be nice to see some of the controls like Chris Maunder's Grid control ported to WTL. WTL is a powerful library but there is a lot you give up when choosing to move to WTL. Also I would like to see some one develop a doc / view framework for WTL.

A code snippet library sharing app and service, thing. Naturally with a Visual Studio add-in. There are a lot of them out there but after having spent a week downloading and testing most of them the common problem is they are nice but hardcore programmers will hate them. You know, the command line type of guy. Most of them are a pain to setup and have a bunch of features that hardcore okes will never use. It needs to be something really slick, something focused and direct that works like a hardcore chap expects it to.

A project management system. Phase tracking, bugs, document storage, client feedback area etc. Not a source control system, but a system for the management of a project that both managers/clients and the developers are happy with. We all bitch about management of projects, so lets do something about it for once.

I'd be curious about a rough white paper / PPT presentation / "how PMS will change your world" speech. i.e. what you thing a PMS could do for the various stakeholders in a project. Share your ideas!

SubVersion is not at "one point oh" yet. I wouldn't recommend using it for anything serious just yet..

You are aware that the Subversion developers themselves are using it to version control the Subversion project?
It's looking pretty good and they're in beta phase now

Using a SC system which is in beta phase is not good QA though. Believe me, I've lost code in an unstable SC system before, and it's not a fun thingTM

And another thing; how good are the tools for SubVersion? For WinCVS there are a couple of really good tools. Standalone applications as well as VC/VS-addins.

Unfortunately, CVS is probably the only option... since it is free.

SubVersion is free. We use it at SharpDevelop.

You work over at SharpDevelop? Cool. Good idea with the IDE, needs more work of course but pretty impressive nonetheless.

I'm not in the core team, but I'm in the top 15. I've submitted a few fixes, but my main job is answering forum posts. Now that I've joined the contributor's list, I'm going to help out alot more with the coding. My current project is porting the Project Scout to SWT and fixing some dragging/moving bugs in it.
