Ton,
There will be global search for all AmiBroker docs / sites
implemented in near future.
Best regards,

Brian when talking about UKB, I like what I
see. But there is a 'but'. What I would
like to have is a kind of online search engine
that covers all AmiBroker sources.
When I have a problem with AmiBroker and/or AFL
and am looking for an answer,
I must do 10 and more search actions before
getting that answer. In most
cases
the requested information is available but it
takes a lot of time to get it out of the
scattered sources. With UKB there is an extra
source and therefore an extra
search action needed. Why not getting things
under one umbrella ?
Regards, Ton.

Hello
Michael,
I haven't read the framework as yet.
Yes, we would
love to have your contributions at the UKB in their own
right but also
to consolidate.
I hope you will become an Author; you would be
ideal for that role.
Over at the UKB the party hasn't started. We
are still setting up and
the party lights are in the box in the floor
if you know what I mean.
IF anyone wants to get involved with the dirty
work they are welcome
but that isn't essential.
You can just
sign the the Contributor Agreement, send Herman an email
asking to
join the AmiBroker-UKB and start writing (as long as you
can ignore
the background noise that Herman and I are making as we
build the
stage then there won't be a problem).
We haven't decided on what we
will do if people want us to upload
stuff for them. The spirit is
willing but the flesh is weak.
I am not saying we won't do it but at
the moment we can't.
We would prefer if people become Authors and
post their own stuff as
we don't have the bodies or the systems in
place to provide an upoad
service (not at the moment anyway).
The
mechanics of how to do that can be discussed within the
AmiBroker-
UKB.

We
haven't discussed these points but as I understand it:
The UKB is
built on the free software program WordPress.
The software is
customizeable to some extent.
AmiBroker is the administrator for the
UKB and has installed
WordPress on .org as the host site. It has been
tweaked to suit our
needs.
Nothing has been said about the
thirdparty site.
I assume that AB will continue with it as before; an
FTP site for
those who want to share files etc via that
path.
Personally I will be taking down the UKB demo structure that
I put
there for discussion use while the UKB was in its formative
stages.
It looks like I might leave one UKB folder there as we don't
have a
file section at the AmiBroker-UKB and so we have a need for a
place
to swap files amongst the Authors.
In the longer term, as
the UKB grows, the need for FTP file sharing
might actually
grow.
Maybe someone will come in and push a project that will give us a
more efficient way to manage file sharing in conjunction with the
UKB.
Who nows?
It comes down to the users, their needs and how
good a case they can
put up to Tomasz.
> & how do you
find UKBfrom the main AmiBroker site?
There is no link at
present.
Murthyuresh posted on this point.
It has been put on the
discussion list at the Authors forum.
I get the impression that
Tomasz is in the middle of a bout of
intense programming at the moment
( I wonder what he could be
writing?).
He looks after us well at
the UKB but we only get our share of
attention.
When he can get
to it I am sure he will let us know what he has
decided to do on this
one.
Thanks for your interest, questions and offer of the
'framework'.
Brian.
