Re: [libreplanet-discuss] Modernizing the Libreplanet Community Infrastructure

[Adonay Felipe Nogueira]

I have used a site that had Discourse some time ago (1 year ago), and I
noticed one problem with it, at least when I tried it, it didn't provide
me, the site visitor, the software freedom regarding the JavaScript
being provided to me.

Also, another issue is: usage of the service provider's
resources. Seeing Helekin's comments on the features of Discourse, I
wonder how much resources this uses compared to traditional combination
of Mailman + Namazu + Semantic MediaWiki + IRC. Now, imagine that, if
every Discourse user has in his account the ability to have custom notes
about things that are going on, and perhaps even custom grouping of
things, I imagine that this can grow in scale very easily if people
start using such features. I'm not a general Internet service provider,
but I do know that leaving the burden of saving your own customization
to the provider of the service is somewhat intensive. However, this
might work if more than one organization is involved.


Respectfully, Adonay.
