A Scratch Connections Sourceforge Project?

So I was thinking, since we are getting many many projects that use Scratch's Remote Sensor Connections and Mesh features, that maybe we could put all the projects and code on a single Sourceforge project. It could allow us lazy people to just look through someone's code when we feel bored and possibly fix errors for each other.

Hopefully it'll encourage us all to work together and create some unity in our projects (even if we are competing).  smile

I am willing to create and maintain the entire project if anyone is interested.

What are your thoughts? Should we have one or should we keep all the projects separated?

I'll do it!
After all, my Java mesh server is already on there.
Which reminds me....
do you want me to make a PHP version of the mesh server, or is that overkill?

I personally want to do it myself (I'm so greedy ^.^). Also, should we use SVN or some other repository system?

As for the PHP version of the Mesh server.. sure. I'm curious how it would work.

I'm not sure it would  tongue
At least, not in the usual way, running it through Apache. I imagine there's a way to run PHP as a standalone program with long-running processes. Presumably it has socket support, too...


For version control, I'd personally recommend trying git — the decentralised-ness is rather cool.  smile  (I'll admit I haven't tried svn, though...  tongue )

PHP supports sockets and can be used standalone (but it's quite messy)
