I am on a committee that would benefit from an online application that allows the members to collaborate w/ members. I would want the ability to post messages and upload documents. Is there any free, easy to install on your server apps that you would suggest? ...
After delving into the world of opensource I have found implementation is emphasised over design. Version control allows for a project to branch off in many directions, which projects may do; this suggests lack of consensus or direction amongst the participants. What software or websites are useful for collaborative design? ...
Hi Some Background : Many moons ago, i wrote a Library (SDK) which makes it possible to integrate with some 3rd party accouting software. One public class exposed by the SDK was the Customer class, which in turn collaborated with a CustomerContacts collection. These classes supports n-level undo + validation rules ect. In order to user...
Are there any web apps that allow for source code collaboration? I'm thinking of something that could look at an SVN repo/local folder/etc. and publish the code with support for threaded discussions under each file or class. Ideally I want to find something that I could deploy/host myself, so being based in PHP would be a huge plus. ...
The company I work for currently uses "Go To Meeting" to share our desktops but it's quite expensive for what we use it for and we are looking for cheaper (or even free) alternatives. We have evaluated yuuguu and yugma but they aren't up to scratch. They are both slow and only allow the sharers to share the entire desktop as opposed to ...
Are there any good team-chat websites, preferably in Python, ideally with CherryPy or Trac? This is similar to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/46612/whats-a-good-freeware-collaborative-ie-multiuser-instant-messenger#46660, but a few primary differences: 1) I very much want to host the server. 2) I don't care if Smileys are included...
Some of my coworkers happen to live on other continents, and every once in a while we need to have a quick chat over some code snippet. E-mail is too slow, code reviews are clumsy, as for Yahoo Messenger... this says it all: My question is: what is a fast and easy way to share some small piece of code, possibly allowing real-time high...
Are there other tools besides Mingle that would let my team create an online "wall" of post-it-like text notes? In the ideal world each note would have an associated author, tags for searching, be editable, and could be duplicated and moved around for clustering like we do with actual post-its during physical brainstorming. I like how ...
Basically I need a hosted solution, where one can create an account for a project and the distributed team members can interact through that site during the project implementation. I know a lot of such software but not a hosted one. ...
What features might our team find lacking if we adopted Basecamp for bug tracking, task tracking, external documentation, collaboration, and project management? I've used the free version before and think that 37Signals makes excellent products - but I wanted to hear from you what the drawbacks might be. ...
I am looking for a good, free (preferred) screen sharing program that works well for pair programming and code review sessions for Windows (Vista x64, Server 2008). It should allow either person take control of the screen and be fairly responsive for text editing over decent broadband connections. Additional features like the ability to ...
I am a recent college graduate working for a large corporation that has an aging workforce. I am curious for peoples experiences on working with an age gap preferably from both sides. Examples Issues I have encountered so far: Agile practices vs Waterfall Collaboration between programmers vs individuality Working early in the mornin...
I have several small open-source projects that I wrote. All my attempts to find collaborators (looked on sourceforge.net and codeplex) failed miserably - I either couldn't find anyone, or I found people who either weren't interested or didn't contribute anything. Thus comes the question: how and where can I find people to work with (on o...
Should I use them as separate releases? Do I check them back into trunk or branches? Is this all in the red book and I've just wasted your time? ...
Hello everyone I'm interested in Collaberative Developing and I was wondering if there are alternative solutions than using UNA (example video) from N-Brain. Free would be even better, but I guess that's not an option which such technology. PS: The main future I'm looking for is working real-time with multiple persons in the same code....
I'm looking for something that applies the collaboration focus (one location/URL, always up-to-date, multi-person online read/write access anywhere) of google docs / google spreadsheets to wireframing. Bonus points if, like Google Docs, it needs only a browser yet also works offline. More bonus points if it supports automatic revisions. ...
This is not a programming question, but I figured I would ask in here, since there are a lot of professional coders. Let me know if you have any suggestion on the software we could use to manage a technical department. I currently work for programming shop, employing about 30 people. We have different software products that we provide t...
I would like to adapt my development team from a very singular development team (one large development per developer), to distributed workload (on the same projects). Has anyone else undergone this change? What is the best way to implement seperation of work, team-spirit, documentation etc? ...
I have a working prototype for a killer app implemented in C# for Windows Mobile. It needs to be packaged into a commodity and efficiently sold. Possibly also converted to a web-centric platform. Now I'd like to assemble a community of seasoned, possibly semi-retired IT professionals. They should be willing to work for fun and free, wi...
Hello, today I was looking for a free collaborative code editor for Mac OS X, I don't really need it but I find the idea pretty charming. So I want to know you opinion about that: is there someone in real world who is using a collaborative code editor and gets some benefits out of it? ...
