[add-art dev] ok, wordpress it is then

[Matt Katz]

Sandbox is discontinued? It doesn't seem to be on either plaintxt [1] or
the project homepage [2]. You sure? 

I still dig it as it it implements lots of sexy microformats  [3]out of
the box and is stylable through css alone.  

I have no experience with Thematic, it might be god's special child, just
saying I'm not sure sandbox is in a cave with a stone in front. 

And I'm willing to come to a pizza party sometime soon. I've got some
wordpress experience if there is any help needed. If not I could set aside
some time to re-dig into getting federation done. It's itching me that we
still can only distribute from add-art.org

If you're starting a theme from scratch you might want to look at Thematic
[4], it's a pretty powerful framework theme - which means you extend it
through a child theme which allow the parent theme to get updates (when WP
updates for example) without having to rebuild the whole theme. It also
has
some pretty accessible hooks to only modify what you need (through the
functions.php file) and it makes the whole development process much more
streamlined and simple. They also have decent documentation there too. I
definitely intend to use it (instead of the discontinued Sandbox) as my
base theme from now on. 

Let me know if you're going for it.

  Sounds like we're switching. Greg, you still up for implementing one of
your designs?

 Anyone else interested in developing the site?

 Time for an old fashioned pizza party?

 Also, 0.8.3 went out today with
small changes for the new FF.
