On a GoToMeeting session with Alan. Great conversation and talk about where we have been and where we are going. We started out the meeting by going over the flow for the web pages and why we wanted to record all of that information and what was the goal. We talked about how the principles and concepts we are built on are huge and how our code is one of thousands of possible options. The golden nugget is the concepts and how we have intermingled them together (mixing and blending). We talked database flow, drew out mappings, talked about goals (past, present, and future), etc. Supper fun. Alan then asked if we were happy with how things are going... we talked about pros, cons, successes, frustrations, etc. The whole way through we were bouncing between graphics, drawing, and looking at an Excel file that has versions and features listed. We talked about break throughs and barriers and how those items play into the mix. We went over timelines, a rough history of where we started, and even a small projection of where we want to go. We talked world building, splitting up databases, servers, progression, options, etc. I really enjoyed it. One of the gems of the day was when Alan said, "It looks like originally you guys would build out something until it was done and then move on. Do you guys want to get back to that?". As we talked about it and drew what was happening, we can see that tons of new projects and features are being built (by different developer and/or parties) but none of them are fully done. It is somewhat of a crazy madhouse or random cluster. The answer is yes, I would love to get to finishing up a project and seeing it all the way done. Sadly, we currently have some code and projects that have never been looked at, never been checked or signed off on, and some that have potential skeletons in the closet. If we had the time and means, I would love to leave the current platform somewhat alone and do a total rebuild or reconstruction project. Take what we've learned, apply it, and cascade it forward. That would be super cool. Huge, but super cool. Anyways, I had a great time and Alan and I had a good conversation. Lots of back and forth questions and dreaming and remembering. If I had to start all over again, I would keep drawing and recording notes and ideas. That is what allows us to keep going and building on the past ideas and concepts. Fun times. |
