[10:36:04 CDT(-0500)] <athena> ok, so question about this pulled fragment integration
[10:36:13 CDT(-0500)] <athena> do we really want to have categories displayed for the fragments?
[10:36:25 CDT(-0500)] <athena> or would it be better to just skip the categories and have a list of them
[10:49:42 CDT(-0500)] <holdorph> you know as soon as you make the decision to NOT have categories, that someone is going to have so many of them, that not having categories is a problem.
[10:49:58 CDT(-0500)] <holdorph> where as if you have categories and they aren't really necessary, it's not such a big problem.
[11:12:45 CDT(-0500)] <holdorph> UGGGG, tried upgrading to the newest eclipse, but the springide site is down.
[11:12:46 CDT(-0500)] <holdorph> bah!
[11:25:17 CDT(-0500)] <bsparks> I got it yesterday, you can pick apart my folder if you want.
[11:26:08 CDT(-0500)] <holdorph> nah, i won't switch over from my previous install, until I get everything the normal way. Just weird, it's almost like they got hacked, except the current page, does say anything bad (smile)
[11:27:01 CDT(-0500)] <bsparks> weird (smile)
[12:08:23 CDT(-0500)] <athena> holdorph: well, the issue is more whether we display categories or not
[12:08:39 CDT(-0500)] <athena> if you don't have many categories, or just have one in each, the UI is kind of awkward
[12:09:33 CDT(-0500)] <holdorph> my point was, either choice could be wrong, in some circumstances
[12:09:52 CDT(-0500)] <athena> yes, agreed (smile)
[12:09:54 CDT(-0500)] <holdorph> so, i don't think the decision will matter. murphy's law, whatever you choose will be wrong
[12:09:56 CDT(-0500)] <athena> lol
[12:10:01 CDT(-0500)] <athena> always the optimist!
[12:10:06 CDT(-0500)] <holdorph> so.... ask petro (wink)
[12:10:24 CDT(-0500)] <athena> no i don't want a super complex answer that proposes 10 new really hard feature either (tongue)
[12:10:31 CDT(-0500)] <athena> probably the right person ask is gary
[12:10:45 CDT(-0500)] <athena> who will tell me that categories are crappy and we should use tags instead
[12:12:06 CDT(-0500)] <athena> so i guess maybe my inclination right now is to just refactor this to be a lot simpler and not rely on categories
[12:12:23 CDT(-0500)] <athena> and then record for the record that someone like gary should come up with new wireframes for what we really want
