Mozilla Composer Forum

Post by bdeonline »

I think since it is now almost certian that Composer will be a standalone app. that Mozillazine needs a forum expecially for it. Maybe just a single forum for now and not one for builds, features, and bugs until the project gets going.

Why not wait until it's here, first? The time for feature discussion is presumably after it's started building...

Unfortunately, I have seen very few questions regarding Composer, so I'd have to agree with thump. I wish ther WERE more interest. Maybe then the standalone Composer would happen sooner. The forum would have about the same level of action as the old "Events" forum. :wink:

I haven't really seen that much change in composer since the "old days". It could really turn out to be a great application, if enough effort was put into it. It could be a simple editor for begginers in html and could allow the experts to easily edit the source. Maybe I'm a little too optomistic, but I would love to see this happen.

I would like to see composer up there with great composer applications like <a href="http://bluefish.openoffice.nl/">Bluefish</a> on Linux and <a href="http://www.macromedia.com/software/dreamweaver/">Dreamweaver MX</a> on Windows and Mac and others. I think we need a forum to do just that generate support and awareness. I realize not much support for the project isn't there yet but I would really like to see it grow.

I hope that if it does grow (and I'm sure it will) it will keep standards compliance and not completely hide the code from the user. That is one thing we dont want.

That IS great news. I am most interested in a Linux build, though. I'm trying to keep from downloading the Mozilla suite again just for Composer. :?

Can't get to site

Post by old Neil Parks »

I'd like to try the new standalone composer, but as often as I try I cannot access Daniel Glazman's web site. Is there a mirror available anywhere?

His site does seem down, but the download part seems to be still up here is the link
http://daniel.glazman.free.fr/composer/composer++.html
just scroll down along the side and choose windows, or linux and start downloading.

free.fr is a very good ISP, and they're offering a lot (100MB) of free webspace without any ad, but the counterpart is that dynamic parts of websites (those using PHP) are very often down these days.

Or the Dev General forum (there's more locked posts than posts in the Dev General forum!).
