Vote Roadmap? Give us the Needs then the Wants.

@horacebury : You know… you have no idea the type of responses that crossed my mind… The good thing about a start-up, no annoying HR peeps…but… lawyers… yeah…

LOL !!! :stuck_out_tongue: :slight_smile:

… evil smile lurking …

Ok, that’s cool…

TBH, the absolute best thing (other than the things you’ve already listed) would be to be able to put together a full-on iPhone/iPad app using just native controls elements and then put together a 1HR code demo to show just how much can be done using Corona instead of, oh, I don’t know… The annoying Interface Builder (if that’s what it’s called, I’ve not loaded it in a long time - thanks to Corona!)

Ps: Just how much Obj-C etc pain do you guys have to go through to make it fun for us? [import]uid: 8271 topic_id: 4142 reply_id: 16436[/import]

Not just Obj-C but also dealing with crappy Java (Android)…

Carlos this is great news! The feature list and the fact that it is only couple days away etc. I appreciate what you’re saying in that you’re investing time to build the framework that we will rely on for a while so thats great!

Last feedback… Since you mentioned the 33LP record thing and the age factor… You know those of us who know what all that is supposed to be also don’t do that well with all the twittering and what not so please don’t make that your only venue of communication. For the record, I don’t have a Twitter, Facebook or LinkedIn account and I know I’m not the only one. Many colleagues I know are actually dropping out since its become such a time consumer.

I love to read your posts here. Thanks once again! [import]uid: 11904 topic_id: 4142 reply_id: 16441[/import]

@ksan Actually, that’s a very good point; I’m involved with building very large systems (as, I assume, many here are) and I definitely appreciate that when building something commercial which has to be future proof and able to change, the most important thing is a framework. Many developers, I believe, don’t understand the background effort which goes into something like that prior to extending even a small piece of functionality. To have someone in Carlos’ position actively participating in the forums (as well as all the other clever folk at Ansca!) is a huge (and much appreciated) bonus.

Ok, I’ll get up now.

- Other surprises as well…

Carlos.

I will need to be wearing a nappy when you make the announcement - just in case a Windows version of Corona is one of those surprises… [import]uid: 11393 topic_id: 4142 reply_id: 16446[/import]

Btw, here’s the latest survey results:

@carlos,
remember that whatever new feature you release, we (noobs) need video/sample tutorials on how to use :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

@horacebury the link doesn’t work for me. [import]uid: 8192 topic_id: 4142 reply_id: 16465[/import]

Can’t wait for the makeTea() function to come out… or better yet, cupOfJoe() [import]uid: 7849 topic_id: 4142 reply_id: 16492[/import]

Right, sorry, here’s a more up to date (working) chart: http://gallery.me.com/horacebury/100001/IMG_0082

Hope this gives a deeper insight.

@horacebury

May I suggest that the grading scale is too vast. 14 settings is way too much. 1-10 is already a lot and most people, as we have seen from amazon.com and internet rating systems prefer a 1-5 scale. As you have seen all the averages are above 8 I think. Which really makes the scale already an 8-13 or 5 spread rating.

I am sure it’s too late for this one but for the next one a 1-5 scale would be easier to read and relate to.

[import]uid: 8192 topic_id: 4142 reply_id: 16517[/import]

Absolutely; I haven’t played with the thing much and just slammed in a bunch of values. I’ll see if it can be configured a little more, however it’s a free account and I wouldn’t want to have to ditch the responses already collected.

[EDIT] - Just checked and it is no longer possible to alter the number of value columns as there are now responses. [import]uid: 8271 topic_id: 4142 reply_id: 16520[/import]

That’s what I figured. Oh well, something to keep in mind for the next one. I guess we should probably close that one and do a new one every two weeks or so just to keep the data fresh. I am more than willing to help if you want.

Cool - actually, I was thinking about getting suggestions for the next poll… [import]uid: 8271 topic_id: 4142 reply_id: 16528[/import]

Carlos here…

Just want to share that we have looked at the poll results, and after we ship this release, we will take the data into consideration for our next set of features, and I will share that with you as soon as we are in feature writing mode. Everyone here is on a jolt-ripped-fuel-caffeine-angry-bull high putting the finishing touches on … wait… i need more sugar on my coffee… Be right back…

You guys ROCK.

Carlos.
