I realize this idea will not be an easy one to implement and may not even be all that feasible but I think it can take CP to the next level.
I think it would absolutely rock if we could have source control(SVN) and bug tracking functionality right here. Let me elaborate…
One could create a project like lets say for arguments sake a client-server texas hold’em game written from scratch in C#.
The article possibilities are almost endless. You can have an article on
• the server architecture
• the client architecture
• how, why and where the game logic sits and gets executed
• the protocol implementation & how to control different protocol versions between the clients and server
• the GDI+ stuff that need to happen in the client app when drawing and animating cards, etc.
In each of these articles you can try and show only the basics that the articles topics will cover with regards to coding… But each of those articles can then be linked to your SVN project so that the reader can see the particular concept in action in a real world application. And if updates are made you don’t have to update the links to all 5 articles every time.
The other benefit is it will be easier to do collaborative projects with other CPians, and also have some form of bug tracking system.
It would also be nice to be able to make a code repository (or project) either public or private. While I’ll share most of my code with the other CPians, I’d like for some of it to remain private and be only an online backup of my work if you will.
Just some ideas I had floating around in my head. Let me know what you guys think

That is unfortunate, as your subject line gets copies for each reply.
FYI: same with IE7
BTW: "Quote Selected Text" does not work either for the subject line, so I had to fool it a bit.

Hi Senthil,
I tried the links to your blog, and everything seems working here.
Has something been changed on your end?
If it is still not working for you,
can you, please, specify the steps, how do I get to the broken links,
and i will try to fix that as soon as I can.
Sincerely,
Elina

Enjoy every moment of it!

Hi, we were able to resolve the issue locally. Thanks for reporting. You'll notice the fix after the next upload.

On voting an article as one, it is needed to refresh the page for getting the comment displayed in the message list.

I thought that this behaviour was a feature! Do you mean that you think it's a BUG  ?

Yes it is. If you create a Ajax enabled website and forget to write "YourUpdatePanel.Update()" provided the UpdateMode of the panel was conditional, the UI will not show what happened behind the scenes. And that is a bug.
Somehow, I sense something similar is happening here.

Unfortunately it's a very different situation, but I'll look into how much work is involved in getting the voting and forum systems working a little more harmoniously.

Person A responds (presumably asking something related to spam). Message removed.
Person D then flames away.
Person A replies not all that imaginatively...
etc.
I really don't want the lounge turned into [message removed] wars, and extertaining if vulgar inviations to do "exotic" things with a camel's mother. OK, not completly up to me but... There's a line, and there's barely able to see the line anymore...
That's what the sewersoapbox is for!

I think the thread would have gotten deleted even without the personal abuse.
The post itself was not soapbox material, just not a request anyone here will look on favorably.
Even if there were no reponses, or just a simple "we don't encourage spammers", I still would have hit "vote to remove".

I agree - the original question was worthy of suspicion, if I infer its contents correctly. The level it descended into was more objectionable, if anything.
I've seen the soapbox arguements. That sort of thing,. bargepole, never. Construct a sentence!

I prefer to have timestamps on all messages, not just ones that are older than a day. Would it be possible to have an option to switch this on?

I have seen on several sites recently that if you hover over a capitalized Acronym a tooltip pops up with the meaning. I don't know if you folks think it worthwhile to implement this. Obviously care needs to be taken WTF, for example, is possibly problematic although there are KSS ways to do it.
