A strong candidate for rice db's platform would be hosting it on Github. If you look at vim, it has its vim.org. But do people use that? Nope, they use things like vundle and pathogen, where you can just add plugins to your .vimrc
s by supplying links to their respective Github pages.
Pros:
A few questions remain:
package.json
or something - it was actually useful)Also, if we decide on letting people host plugins in their own separate repositories, a reasonable idea to consider is creating something similar to oh-my-zsh, where people list (in this case, just list) their favorite scripts. That way, people wouldn't need to google for new plugins anymore. This could become Github Pages repository, so that it could have nice frontend without need for a server.
I vote for the last option, with creating community-driven "stepping stone" repository linking to all the goodies. (Note that this idea is mostly compatible with your rice install vim-mlp
syntax, but it would need to be changed to rice install vim-scripts/mlp.vim
to make up for no index server.)
Leaving $ aside, having no index server is also good with regard to possible downtimes and bandwidth usage, which are more likely to be a problem in non-corporate environments.
Thanks for the tips. This is actually exactly what we plan to do for hosting, with our servers performing two functions:
I'm glad to see our project is getting some attention from the creator of the mal graph, please keep on doing god's work and feel free to leave any more comments/suggestions.
I have studied why the other OS developed by /g/ failed. Technically, most of them, if not all, were parochially successful with a few stable .iso releases but they failed to leave prints on the sands of time. Lo/g/os cannot be another Jiyuu or Clover OS, which failed because they have nothing to offer: _merely changing the name, logo and adding a few bloatwares is plagiarism and ultimately meaningless_. Lo/g/os, is a customizable Archlinux that can be installed like Ubuntu. You choose WM theme and choose Firefox theme and choose VIM theme and you are done
Lo/g/os offers a db full of custom themes: pre-configured packages installed with a simple command(
rice vim-light
orrice openbox-mlp
) like pacman.What do we need to build?
What is lo/g/os?
Who is lo/g/os for?
How do you propose we achieve this?
