Question thread #48

[pauamma]

It's time for another question thread!

The rules:

- You may ask any dev-related question you have in a comment. (It doesn't even need to be about Dreamwidth, although if it involves a language/library/framework/database Dreamwidth doesn't use, you will probably get answers pointing that out and suggesting a better place to ask.)
- You may also answer any question, using the guidelines given in To Answer, Or Not To Answer and in this comment thread.

Hasn't really been progress. I think it's a fantastic idea though and people have talked about it, just needs someone to take up the torch and push it forward. I'm happy to mentor/review.

(And if nobody does do it, it's on my 2017 list. I really would love to see what people can do given a better API!)

Has a design for a new, better API been come up with yet? Or are there any notes anywhere on what people have in mind?

ETA: Ooh, I have been pointed at http://dw-dev.dreamwidth.org/154266.html and http://dw-dev.dreamwidth.org/155046.html .

So a new metaquestion: Is there are place where I should know to go looking for discussion and design documents on DW development projects?
