Developer Sprint This Weekend - Free T-Shirts For All Participants!
June 22, 2009
Since we've been dormant for the past few months, we've decided to hold a Developer Sprint this weekend, June 26-28. We'll be fixing up bugs for 1.0. By Monday, we'll have 1.0-RC2 ready to be released. We're inviting all community members to help us out by fixing bugs, and making sure everything is working flawlessly.
We will be giving out free Dojo t-shirts to anyone who provides an acceptable fix for any outstanding 1.0 bug or ticket. Below, you can see some people wearing the shirt at a local Dojo meetup. Just make sure you've filled out a CLA before friday, otherwise we can't accept your contribution. There aren't any skill or experience requirements, if you know PHP or Javascript/Dojo, then you can help us out.
We'll be setting up camp on the IRC channel, and in the forums. The information for the IRC channel can be found on the Community page. If you have any questions, or need help tackling a bug, just ask in either of those places and someone will help you out.
By Monday, we want to have RC2 finished. That way, we can release 1.0 a week later, provided we don't get any huge bug reports.
We'll be looking forward to meeting you all this weekend. I hope we have a good time, and get lots of work done!
Dojo Toolkit Codeswarm Visualization
June 9, 2009
We put together another video using Codeswarm, but this time we decided to make one for Dojo. I forgot to explain what the dots mean in the last post... Basically each dot represents a file, and when a username shows up, it represents a commit from that user. You can view it on Youtube (HD recommended), or just watch it below.
Lucid Codeswarm Visualization

I put together a quick video of Lucid's code history using Codeswarm. Someone should totally do one for Dojo, I think it would look quite interesting. Anyways, you can view it on youtube (HD recommended), or view it below.
Lucid on Social Networks
June 8, 2009
With the launch of the new site, we've made some accounts on social networks for Lucid that you can follow. We're on Twitter, Facebook, among others. You can see the full list in the sidebar on the community page.
Sometimes we will post things on there that we don't put on the main site. We did this when we were working on getting the new site finished. Sometimes we talk about when we're planning on releasing a new version, ideas that we're throwing around, etc. By following us there, you'll be the first to know about what's going on with the project.
