Developers / Install just DCE Router

« on: December 14, 2009, 11:23:27 pm »

Hi guys,

Anyone got any hints on how I would go about just installing the DCE Router to start programming with that? I have a connection with SVN to the repo.

Many thanks

Developers / Systems Model / Code architecture

« on: October 09, 2009, 01:43:51 pm »

Guys,

A)
Has anyone attemptted to model the code base/system in a sensible/logical way? (UML/SysML etc).

B)
Do we have a coherent dev plan or WBS (Work Breakdown Structure)? I read Thom's letter to the community and was interested to know if the Team Structure idea got off the ground?

Cheers

Developers / Just the essential LinuxMCE files

« on: October 09, 2009, 08:50:14 am »

Hi guys,
Can anyone give me some pointers as to what I need from SVN for JUST THE BARE MINIMUM install, without any extra apps (youtube, voip,z-wave integration etc). JUST the DCERouter and any other bits that need to sit with it. I'm trying to strip it back and learn from bottom up.

Cheers

Matt

Developers / Introduce myself... and I'd Like to get started.. Advice?

« on: October 05, 2009, 09:46:22 pm »

Hi guys and gals, this is my polite intro

OK, I've NEVER contributed to an Open Source project before but I'd like to give it a go, but need your help to get me going.

My background is actually as a windows programmer {runs for cover} but I'm gonna step up the the plate with whatever LinuxMCE is in (C++ or C# I'm guessing?!) I have some excperience in a stack of other languages (PHP, SQL, Python and some obscure CNC lanaguages) so I'll be a slow starter, but I understand OOP, RAD etc. Oh, I'm a Systems Engineer by trade so I'm a quick learner!

So, I want to start looking through structure and attach to a code repository with Eclipse if possible. Could someone give me some pointers/step by steps to help get me started?

Does any Skype/IM/IRQ so I can meet some current users/Devs please?

Cheers and hi from sunny rainy England
