A few months ago, I came across the idea of Xojo community members collaborating on a community project.
Anyone could contribute (new members to Xojo included), and the resulting project could be sold and the money given to a yet to be determined charity.
This would serve 3 purposes:
Raise money for a charity such as one for terminally ill children.
Be excellent advertising for Xojo and it’s unparalelled community.
Create a great sense of community for new members, and allow them to integrate with regular members.
I appreciate that many developers here are busy, but I am sure we could all donate 30 minutes here and there, in order to make whatever time the children have left - a pleasurable one!
The more members which work on the project - the less time we will each need to work on it.
If anyone is interested, please reply to this thread (as opposed to creating another thread - thus making it difficult to communicate).
The first stage would be on deciding a project / app to create. I would imagine a game would be a good seller?
I’m sure your skills are a lot better than mine
German localisation would be great. Whatever people can contribute will be appreciated.
We are up to 6 people so far. Another 4 and we can then at least get started on exactly what type of software to make.
I am presuming a game, as this would cater for all those bored teenagers out there, and potentially make the most sales - but all ideas are welcomed
Always willing to help this way for charity.
I don’t see myself as a very experienced Xojo programmer, but I sure can help with the Dutch localization.
