  • How to post your devRant clone

    It is pretty simple.

    1. Add new thread page is where you can fill all needed fields.

    2. Use a unique name for your application - it must not nonchalantly use the word “devRant”, as it is taken and is a trademark. Append | devRant Clone to that, and your title is ready!

    3. Fill out the body with optional, but contextually interesting, information and links:

      My synopsis of what my application does that resembles devRant.
      
      - Used tech stack
      - Used data
      - It took me  hours
      - What is different
      
      ---
      
      - Demo
      - Screencast
      - Source code
      - Screenshots come in the comments below
      
    4. Paste the tags: devrant drcj jam hackathon entry

    5. Mark your work as OC, if all qualities specific to a devRant clone were implemented by you and you only.

    6. Attach an image before submitting. It may be your main page or whatever makes the thread appealing and unique.

    7. Press “Add new thread” button to publish!

    8. Post additional screenshots via comments below, if any.













  • I think some people don’t give any room to breathe to projects that just want major contributors be paid, even when, as you rightfully say, XMPP had the same compatibility struggles in its infancy as Matrix implementations now have.

    So far, there is a lot of FUD around newer protocol and that it lacks in openness. But if you look again, it recognizes versions and differences between them in the specification. Every MSC proposal covers the context of change and recommendations to implement, while keeping backwards-compatibility with older software in mind. If you make a proposal, it will be reviewed. If you need someone else besides Spec Core Team members to move it forward, flag to you - fork. But I rather prefer this model in upstream than beating around the bush and electing someone who might have lost an idea of why they are still in the project.
