Music Section

I posted that assuming only that you can add and subtract positions later on.

Like I said, this isn't releasable software. If I was taking it on it'd be an engine for use only by Bulbagarden, therefore those sorts of things would be hardcoded.

Heres how I would imagine it go up.

There would be a forum with 2 sub forums: discussion and original music. Discussion would be to talk about music, genres and stuff. The other would be similar to trade threads, where people can display their music and get comments and requests. It would more of a showcase, sure, but it seems to be efficient to me. Obviously you would need permission to post a thread and upload music.

In my example, people with permission to upload and make threads would be "privileged users". limited access, however, isnt really needed, unless someone breaks rules in that forum and no where else, which is odd to see.

Forum software isn't built for this kind of stuff...

There are plenty of plugins for CMSs and the like, but custom-coded would be a lot easier to manage because it would be dedicated to the task.

There's be a forum section for the music, to be sure, but there must also be a separate CMS by itself.

Question: How long roughly will the CMS take to develop?

Another question: how would security operate on something custom-coded?

By custom-coded, we mean coded completely from scratch, not in the sense of a plugin.

From what I know about Qombat, he's pretty good at making things secure.

And this will be integrated to the BMGf CMS when we move to vB4? Will be a separate website? How exactly would it be like?

EDIT: If possible could we include the 'Food Forum' that was discussed earlier into this too? Just because it may be possible that each of them as one, may not receive so much activity. But together they may get that activity. Though I'm fine with just Music alone

If Qombat is doing it all himself, it would not be integrated into vB4's CMS. But I want to hear him talk about security. I'm sure he's good, but I'd like to have more specifics directly from his mouth.

If you want a food forum, that needs its own IDEA thread.

I see, though if it could get implemented into the vB4 CMS, that would be impressive, otherwise another host, etc. Would have to be bought and would cause more trouble.

I'm not that passionate about it and I don't think there would be enough activity for it to keep it up. Though if anyone else wants to suggest it, feel free to do so.

Part of my work involves security, actually. Alongside this I know a number of people who do security work, I've picked up a lot of things from them.

Edited:

I already have Giaru on MSN, but if anyone who supports this wants to add me and discuss it there, feel free - e.speck@live.com.

I don't know if you've decided on an uploading system or not, but I've found http://tindeck.com/ to be an excellent site for hosting mp3 files and being able to listen to them easily.

Well, we're trying to build our own CMS.
