The Future Of SoL
-----------------
Hello again..Well I haven't written anything in a long
time and I decided it's about time that I write something for
SOL again. First of all I'd like to mention that I think SOL
needs more members. I think that with many different writers
with many different writing styles and opinions SOL will be a
much better group.
I also want to mention that I am sort of embarressed
about the sol application generator. If you wish to join SOL
don't bother with that. Unless you want to. It's probably
easier just to fill out the lameness evaluation form from
earlier realeses of SOL. The application generator worked
fine and was easy to use. The only problem was it wasn't
very seriouse. In fact it was sort of dumb. Now that I look
back I see so much that I want to change. First of all there
is no reason to know a members real name. Don't bother
filling that out. And there could be a couple dumb
questions. But not as many as were put in. Once Celest
Warrior makes some new ansis I will recompile the application
genrator and hopefully it will be much better than the
previous one.
Well I guess I'll talk a little about SOL and my
feelings about it in this issue. Not much has gone on with
SOL. Celest Warrior has really been the only writer. I
wrote one other issue besides this one. There have been
conversations on several boards about SOL. Most people seem
disappointed with it in some way or another. I was surprised
by the amount of readers there were. Most of the peoples
comments were seriouse and they explained there fealings
toward SOL. We will hopefully try to correct all the
problems mentioned. I guess if we listen to what the people
have to say and make those changes then that could only help.
As I stated above, one of the things we will start with is
the application generator. If you noticed it hasn't been
realesd with the latest issues.
I'm not sure if anyone else mentioned this but as I
recently started to read the SOL files I noticed that many
files were padded with blank lines and the dizzes sometimes
had over a hundred blank lines in them. Most articles had
the same problem. I went back and editted every file that
had problems. I edited the dizzes that had problems and I
even fixed a few of the spelling problems. I tried to make
everything look nicer. I reziped everything up I know I will
upload them to several FTP sites on the internet within the
next few days. I will try to make sure that a list of sites
were sol is available is listed in the next issue. First I
have to see which sites except and keep them.
Well basically I just wanted to mention that we will try
to make SOL better. We will try to increase the quality of
the articles and files included. We will try to do some
other things besides write text files. And we will also try
to make SOL available to more people. Any reccomendations
for SOL will be appreciated. Just mail me (Retlor) or Celest
Warrior on any boards that we are on. We will also try to
get an internet address for SOL soon so people that don't
call boards around here can still contact us.
