Hi all,
Now that I am starting to use Pier, I notice several things:
1. The current version of Pier has become a bit unstable. The bugs I have found so far
are:
- The default installation no longer requires you to be logged in to change content. This
is because the owner is no longer set by default.
- The default installation no longer allows you to select a template.
I do not know how much this has to do with the work Damien is doing, but the question
arises: who are currently the core team of Pier?
2. The website of Pier is outdated. It still refers to Pier2, the repository of Lucas
Renggli, some new add-ons are missing, and several links to examples are no longer
working.
3. Also Pier itself could use some new input. I am thinking about a bootstrap packages,
that adds a bootstrap template, and allows to add bootstrap components, like a jumbotron,
to be added easily, without having to resort to “verbatim”. And maybe there are other
things that are missing too.
I am willing to do some work, as I am now using Pier for my website, but I don’t think I
can do it without help.
Stephan and I already did some work on the code exporter, so has become more easy:
- to migrate a Pier site to the current version
- to develop Pier local, and deploy Pier remote.
We should probably add a screen cast and installation scripts, but then: who will put it
on the Pier website?
So who is using Pier also and wants to help get it up to date?
Cheers,
Diego

check now).

That sounds sweet :)

I am using Pier (the one click image from lukas, though) for my personal
websites (which are quite abandoned) and an intranet site which I´m
building at work. I´d like to contribute something if I can, however my
quality time in front of my home computer is quite limited. Nevertheless,
I´ll try and sit down to at least take a good look at the code.

Hi Diego and Sergi - I've been working off of Smalltalkhub, which seems to be where
the Jenkins server is looking (https://ci.inria.fr/pharo-contribution/job/Pier3Addons/).
The images there make it easy to test Pier Editor changes (the WSYWIG editor is also in
need of repair), using a design chooser can make it more of what you expect.
Thanks,
John
