No kidding, what's up Si?
Fortunately things aren't _quite_ as bad as they seem... Personally I
guess I can forgive Si because he has a good production ecommerce
site (Gracious Style) that is helping to PoC a lot of the back-end
stuff too.
And yeah, you're right the Hotwax site is still static, but heah
we're only officialy 2 days into the new company! But yes, rest
assured, the hotwaxmedia.com site(s) WILL all eventually run on
OFBiz, starting with the public site which will soon be just like the
Undersun Consulting site, which runs 100% on OFBiz (albeit a bit of
an embarrassingly old version!). We even have plans to migrate more
"internal" tools to OFBiz like project management (we're currently
using XPlanner, which is okay, but it's not OFBiz!), CRM, and even
accounting and such.
It'll be fun working it into shape for a services company and if
anyone else is interested in doing so but afraid to take it on alone,
let's get together and go for it... in about 2 months. We're actually
really swamped right now and our public site and such are obviously a
little tough for us to get out of the way. Darn, 2 days and we still
don't have it! ;)
More seriously though, it would be super-cool if we all jumped on
this and really start eating our dog crap, or er, food.
So, the Brainfood site is running on OFBiz? That's cool. Did you
mount the webapp and the control servlet on "/" or something? The
URLs are way more disguised than we tried to do with the Undersun site.
Okay forget I just said that, I'm an idiot. I remember now that you
guys have a slick front end piece as an alternative to the
ControlServlet and such and that's probably what you've got going there.
If you want to add your site to the list of public facing OFBiz-
running sites it's now on an open page in Confluence (you just have
to have an account to edit):
http://docs.ofbiz.org/x/ZQMAlso, we've recently move the service provider listings to Confluence
too, so you might want to update your listing here:
