Re: [RFC] RFC process/management

OK, sounds fair enough. So just ditching the RFC altogether? We'll still have RFCs but they won't be required and only used for bigger features In relation to the forum structure, how will it now be structured. I'd propose: - Development -- https://www.phpbb.com/community/ -- General Development Di...

Re: [RFC] Documentation System and Requirements

I would support having two repositories and instead having a similar system to Symfony where it is required that a PR exists against the docs repo... Which conflicts with your first requirement? You shouldn't need to have to checkout a git repo locally or have to create JIRA issues or know about gi...

Re: Report Spam Users

-1. A lot of these spam users register but never do anything and letting them sit there has no disadvantage (Unless your concerned by the disk space taken up by a row in a users table?). It's not spam users that are problematic, it's spam posts.

Official extensions are only those developed by the phpBB team, not those written by community members.

Re: [RFC] RFC process/management

At the moment a feature/improvement goes through these stages: Idea -> RFC -> Ticket -> Pull Request I think Ideas and RFCs are on separate chains: Idea -> Ticket -> Pull Request RFC -> Ticket -> Pull Request An "Idea" doesn't necessarily have an RFC topic in Area51. Also there are a few ...

Re: [RFC] Extension to fall back to en lang

ISTs do have extensions and customisations posted on them and not all will have an English language pack, as might those on international 3rd party sites or developed by individuals/organisations for other usage. True but they do have a default lang setup on the forum. Is it possible to add a defau...

Re: [RFC] RFC process/management

I agree with Nicofuma's points, however, I personally feel the RFC process on area51 can be scrapped altogether, as it seems most development discussion currently occurs between IRC, JIRA tickets and GitHub PRs. Requiring further discussion here only slows and diffuses the process, which IMO really...

Re: [RFC] Extension to fall back to en lang

because extensions are required to have "en". That would make them all English, but at least you won't get any errors. Only by our own (http://www.phpbb.com) customisations database validation policies, not by phpBB itself. ISTs do have extensions and customisations posted on them and not...

Re: [RFC] Extension to fall back to en lang

I think there are two other alternatives but I agree something should be done: 1) Fallback to an extension-specific 'default language' defined in composer.json (Accommodates non-english extensions better) or if that is not defined then fall back to en . 2) Look in the extension for language files an...
