CSDB as a "released at" field?
right,
Celtic has asked me to post the following for further discussion on here:
in the same manner as the Compunet entry has been added as a "released at" option, another addition could be made as "CSDB" to denote the modern entries that have been/will be first released directly onto CSDB and not the web/scene/parties/compos. to reflect CSDBs position in the current scene as CNET was in the past.
DISCUSS PLEASE
the admins will make a decision based on the discussion.
i will abstain from the discussion because i raised the question.

Quoting CreaMD
And by the way, this thread was about "released at" field and not about CMS and improvements etc, so please be so kind and stop spreading your foolish quarell with Groepaz to new threads.
Your comment is wrong and off topic. There is nothing about a quarell and your comment misrepresents the situation. The problem is Groepaz's and now your very off topic comments.
On topic, one way this thread question can be answered is by using a different CMS. The technical aspects of that are something I and others can help with. This is because some of us are programmers with relevant experience. That is why points about a CMS are on topic and relevant to this topic. |

Quoting Martin PiperI cannot see any harm in releasing the database for this site along with source code.
I can. Vulnerabilities are much easier to find when you have the source. You as one of us programmers should be aware of that. |

That is a common mistake to make. Trying to any hide bad code is no way to try to be secure. With many more eyes looking problems are found quicker than having one person trying to any hide bad code.
Generally speaking in software development it pays to have more eyes looking at the code. |

Not really. Programming is such a large field that it is impossible to know everything. I don't remember in depth knowledge about scan cycle timings and sprites active with VIC memory access timings. So you don't see me comment on those threads. But on topics I'm good at then I might comment. Which is why when I do comment I'm usually right. ;) |

Yeah, much easier to find and then fix or report so that it can be fixed. That was your point, was it?
