[OFBiz] Users - Spring versus Ofbiz? (Who should write a hello world example?)

[mpf at zentric.com]

Si and undersun

Code Shoot Out sound funny and would definitly help but as andy said it
takes time to do a turorial

On the OFBIZ tutorial /Hello world example I sugest that a beginner should
start writing that and not undersun!
undersun could review it but this is a typical task that should be
delegated into the community! If the community doesnt manage to do a
tutorial asked for its no community but just a bunch of people waiting what
undersun delivers next into the project!  But undersun should better
integrate the shark engine or other very import core features! And they can
only concentrate on those things if a community exists and takes away
administrativ work from them.

Is this a community or just people picking on undersun to do everything?
I still feel the problem is on both sides:
- The community is not very motivated (time and responsibility problems )
to do things
- Andy and david not really delegating efficiently.

Example:
What about the JIRA Administrator. It seems that more and more issues are
in jira but they wont get classiefied?
Who has that role? I would say that a more community member should become
additional Jira Admins. If there are 3 new admins and they have a year
expierience and invest 1 hour a week it is more than now!

We could do a request for volunteers on the list and see who responds. Is
this in the intersted of undersun / ofbiz ?
Undersun could promote this role for componies to give away the
"Solution Providers Status" or something like this.

Just too get involved more people in doing the administrativ work that a
project like ofbiz has!

The bigger the project growth the more money will go to undersun!
