Talk:Slash (software)

[edit] Untitled discussion
Isn't there a better name for this article? It says right in the article that calling it Slashcode is incorrect. Eurleif 01:25, Dec 27, 2003 (UTC)
- Also, Slashcode redirects to this page, but it references itself as Slashcode instead of the upper camel case version. Does anyone know if this should actually be at SLASH or Slashcode?- DropDeadGorgias (talk) 20:37, Jun 2, 2004 (UTC)
- The CMS's being called "Slash" is right on the Website. (It's an article category.)—Boarder8925 02:50, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)
[edit] php nuke
PHP-Nuke is only like Slash(code) in that it is a "community" centered CMS. It's structure is no more like Slash than any of the other listed CMS apps.
[edit] Making pages look like 1997 since 1999
I'm surprised nobody here mentioned the huge bugs that are still in Slashdot and their clones:
- Poor internationalization and Unicode support (and no support for posts).
- Basically relies on 7-bit ASCII.
- Any foreign characters are stored as &#XXX;, but are frequently "double-escaped" to look like &#XXX;.
- Pumps out way too much HTML code (for a subculture that prides itself on being on the edge of technical advances).
Is there any work being done to this system? It's as if there's a rip in the space-time continuum and people browsing in 1997 are releasing software in 2006. --Tokachu 05:45, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
