a thread in the ubuntu forum can be used for this purpose... the existing developers can guide the new developers or even recruit for their own project...This will be like a resource pool.... This can be standardized by making new developers to submit their resume(i dont know the correct word - information about what the person knows and what he is interested to do)

Almost every developer puts these kind of information... but that needs to be standardized

i think that the IDE should be full, but basic GUI (nothing fancy) that is similar to Emacs with far less key pressing

you should have a standard way of handling projects that is invisible to the user (they don't see how you handle the files) yet for every language their is a language specific interface (different for each language) that is completely customizable.

There should also be a project export that packages the project if the language appropriate manner.

I the development there should be a standard (syntax highlighting, file management, etc.) for handling languages that could be voted on.]]> Wed, 23 Jul 2008 01:16:57 +0000
I know little about the environments here because I use devstudio (and am spoiled)

All the linux dev environments suck compared to MS dev studio unfortunatly. However if there was an effort to make something similar for linux, I would love to be part of that development process.]]> Fri, 01 Aug 2008 15:55:47 +0000
In contrast, the open source community has a few different build systems (autotools, scons, cmake, waf, etc.), no IDE which could load a project based on makefiles (and co) correctly, no project description files, etc.

I wanted multiple times to start tweaking on different projects (at least for my own pleasure at learning experience, but even for writing patches), but almost every time when I get the source code for the project, I find myself in front of error messages when trying to build it.

For example, the Banshee project, I followed the instructions on the webpage, got the source code, but when trying to load the solution file in Monodevelop, I got an error, telling me that something is not loadable.

Maybe I just have no luck, but at least 70% of the times when I try something like that (not necessarily with a mono based project, but Python and C projects too) something goes wrong. I'd rather start tweaking the code than start to hunt down the build and other problems, but unfortunately most of the times this is not the case.
