We could remove multiflex as well right? That's not even used on the backend. I could be seriously wrong here, so let me know.

He's all good with dropping it completely - I was +1'ing Adrian's policy proposal. I don't mind having the not supported ones up there though. Let the number of themes grow. I just don't see any reason to flush it totally in general - but in this case, feel free to do whatever you like - foster will not be sad either way :)

See my other comments please, but again, NO! Multiflex is a front-end theme. Look, there seems to be a lot of confusion here. We definitely want multiple themes OOTB and I fully expect the default to change over time. The ONLY reason removing a theme has been discussed is because Ryan chose to create a new theme (BizznessTime) instead of changing SmoothFeather in order to fix problems with it. So, let's not get ahead of ourselves here... -David On May 7, 2009, at 5:29 PM, Tim Ruppert wrote: > We could remove multiflex as well right? That's not even used on > the backend.

This discussion has been going on for a few days. There seems to be some
support for the idea of having two themes in the trunk, and keep the rest on a web page. So, what would your suggestion be for themes in the trunk that aren't being maintained? -Adrian David E Jones wrote: > > No! Definitely not.

Yes, but how many themes should we keep OOTB ? Imagine in some time we get a lot of them, should we put them all in OFBiz OOTB ?
Also this means more maintenance. See my message about message.ftl for instance. On the other hand it's clear than a theme only in the gallery is almost dead, following OFBiz pace is not easy nowadays... Jacques From: "David E Jones" <[hidden email]> > > No! Definitely not.

Just playing devil's advocate here...
As we go down the road and more people in the community develop frontend and backend themes (which may eventually begin to happen as more people catch on to the theming feature), how do we determine what gets included in the trunk? Do we include every theme that is developed? Do we include only include a certain number? In you look at a project like Wordpress for example, there are literally thousands of free and commercial themes that have been developed, but Wordpress only comes with 2 basic themes OOTB. Just something to think about.

This has been going on for a few days, but it seems like different people are talking about different things and thinking they are talking about the same thing. Tim's original point was what to do with the SmoothFeather theme now that BizznessTime replaces it, and unfortunately he didn't phrase it that way, just mentioned deprecating themes. If something isn't being maintained then we can decide. I don't think we need a policy, and I don't think we need to ax anything else as there aren't any other themes that are not being maintained. -David On May 7, 2009, at 5:43 PM, Adrian Crum wrote: > This discussion has been going on for a few days.

Maybe for themes in the gallery, but certainly not in the trunk. There is no concept of individual code responsibility or exclusive control over any code, even if they wrote it. Doing so often results in far more difficulty with hurt feelings and such when someone else helps out. In other words, we're working on building one big project, not a bunch of little projects (yes, it is organized in many parts, but all part of one big whole). -David |

Just so it's clear, I didn't phrase it that way since it wasn't about just this one theme I really did want to know if we were going to do things the wordpress way or just jam all of these things into the trunk and let the community support them. My personal opinion is that I'd like to start seeing it go the way of all other projects where these sorts of plugins - especially at the UI level - are actually just things maintained separately so that they're not in the trunk - but it doesn't really matter to me which way we do it.
So, yeah, I'm looking for a policy but if it's - just like everything else - I'm totally cool with that.

Re: Plan on deprecating old themes

When a person (or a group) want to contribute a new theme, as
discussed that this would go on OFBiz Theme Gallery page but what about incremental fixes or improvement to these themes? I think it would be nice to add a note on theme gallery page which instructs the owner or any other person who improve the theme and eventually contribute, to add brief details about the what was fixed in a particular version, since we are not maintaining them in trunk.
