iomud's Journal: After The Revolution

I've started a little website for friends and I to vent. You may recognize it's format from a site called slant-six that was out some time ago. The underlying engine for slant-six was originially in asp and put on sourceforge as an open source project. At some point it was picked up by Keith who ported it to php. I had become aware of the engine and decided I would like to spend some time learning from it and making what I think are improvements.

The site is growing slowly and much work remains, but overall I'm pretty happy with how it's shaping up. Right now there are three or four core editors, which will likely change in the future if one or two more people submit content regularly. I really enjoy working on it and trying to make it have some kind of utility for all those involved.

If anyone wants to help with content or coding or whatever and you think you might be able to contribute I would welcome it. I haven't been exceptionally disciplined about documenting my changes to the code mainly because I'm the only one working on it. Luckily Keith is a talented coder so it's all very straight forward and well laid out. I try to keep my changes in line with his style of the original code. I use a mac primarily and prefer the application formerly known as hydra (SubEthaEdit) as an editor which allows for collaborative editing. If you haven't experienced it and you have a mac, I highly suggest it.

If you're interested in helping out leave a comment, here or on the site itself.
