My AddOns
    02-05-07 12:45 AM by: Kortanis
    Well, I am just simply too busy to work on any of these for the time being. Before the expansion I was merely waiting for the expansion and had plenty of time to be testing more than playing. However, as my friends and guild mates are progressing thorugh content, so must I; and in the first week I found myself testing addons more than I was playing and my hobby and escape had become just more work.

    I know this disappoints many of you, but I am not sure I will be working on these addons until the time blizzard breaks them beyond what they are now. Each of them works well enough for myself and that suits me. The bugs that each of them have annoy most of you and I apologize, but I want to let you know whats going on.

    So for the record, I am NOT hanging up the towel, merely setting it out to dry.

    This next part is unfortunately without the authoritative permission of the original author, Cirk. This announcement is a sudden decision, and as a non-wow player, Cirk is hard to get a hold of. However, I should have user uploads enabled and if any of you have the talent and time to submit fixes or improvements the please feel free to do so with the following in mind.

    1. Each of these addons were created to be highly functional, highly compatible, yet lightweight addons leaving out gimmicks and extra dead weight. Meaning that support for other addons is preferred over adding the features of every other addon out there. This is priority. If you would like to create your own addon based off of these, please attempt to contact Cirk first, and the code should be considered his intellectual property.

    2. Secondly, so long as Cirk's code maintains the bulk of these projects, please try to maintain the look, feel, and structure of them. The projects in my opinion at one point, finished works. and only currently require repairs. Please try to stick to this.

    3. Improvements are not discouraged. I am not saying that nothing should change, but merely that I believe that these projects do not deserve to be bloated now or ever, and that I feel they would be top notch addons still if no features were added.

    4. Should you provide updates or fixes, please make sure that you FULLY comment your work. I'll need to see what's been done once I have more time to work on them.


    This is a simple to do list I had been keeping on each of them, please feel free to work through this list.

    Chatmanager:
    - Item Linking
    - mod conflict - Taste the Naimbow/Cosmos
    - disapearring scroll buttons on relog
    - possible conflict causing channels to not be rejoined
    - Add option to move chat bar to the top of the chat frame.

    Badapples:

    - Might be a bug that dumps notebook data on server crash.
    - Add a global tab for multi-server notes
    - Whisper note to targeted player
    - Close input box for new note upon hitting enter


    Targetz:

    - "Small bug (I'm using beta 3). I'm using Tooltips Complete which comes with Cosmos. If you have "Remove PVP enabled" checked on, it will display everyone's names twice. Easily resolved by unchecking the box, but it took me a bit to figure out which tooltip mod was messing it up. Just wanted to let you know. Thanks for updating this mod. It's one of my favorites. "

    Thanks, keep in touch, and I will still be on here trying to make heads or tails of everything.
