I see your point as well.
Maybe in the submission wizard there could be an allocation for it to be a draft, and let you set how long the draft status will last for.
And it would also show up as being a draft rather than unedited.
But it is good to see so many articles being edited.

Chris,
Could you please make the search better? I just searched for movewindow and, of course, I get 0 hits. Wassup wit dat? I'm tired of having to go to codeguru or google to do searches for articles.
Sincerely,
Darren

What exactly are you expecting to find when you search for 'MoveWindow'?
Our current search will find either all articles that mention 'movewindow', those that have it in their titles, or those that have 'movewindow' in their descriptions. We don't have a dedicated API reference but if you can suggest a way that would improve the results I'm all ears.
BTW - I did a search for 'MoveWindow' and got 17 hits. I'm rebuilding all the search indexes now to ensure that they are in sync
cheers,
Chris Maunder

I was expecting to see all the hits for articles that mention the term "MoveWindow". I frequently do searches and get no hits when I know for a fact that the term I just searched for is in articles.
I just did a search too and got 19 hits. I'm not sure what's going on but I know it's not the first time this has happened. I'm just used to going to google and doing "codeproject movewindow" and getting my hits that way.
Honestly, i think you have an intermittent problem. Perhaps it has something to do with the indexes since "all of a sudden" there are hits.

I did a full rescan of the files after I got your message and have ensured that scans will be kept up to date from now on. It was a problem, but hopefully it's now an ex-problem.

Thanks, dude. I'll let you know.

Ah - I was wondering who it was who worked for Digiguide. Mystery solved!
Breaking the 'what's new' is a great idea (in fact I did it for the newsletter and will extend it).
Forum subscriptions: the plumbing is half in place but the hardware (a faster and dedicated mailserver for this stuff) isn't. It will happen though.

It's a great product (mostly written by me of course;) ) and will soon be launching in the US - sadly there no time frame for Australia yet.
However, DigiGuide supports listings fro other sources so anyone could create files in DigiGuide format...hint-hint.

Great, thanks for listening Chris.

I was just browsing the demographics section and was wondering if you could put in a table that shows the number of articles that have been posted from each country of origin.
For example
USA 1000
India 700
UK 500
Australia 0 
Etc, as most people who post articles do fill out thier profile fully....

You can tell from his picture he doesn't sleep, and what kind of things does he weave?

That's a good call. I second it.
Also keen for the list of top member countries to be expanded so I can see exactly how far behind South Africa is.

What about States too? I'd like to know how many developers are in each state.

How about a forum for Software Development, testing techniques etc? Or is this covered elsewhere?

Seems to be for those looking for testers rather than talking about it! Maybe it could be expanded in remit?

I think it would be nice to email someone from their profile, through web CP functionality (ie. user's email address kept confidiental). It seems that currently you can only email users via Article postings.
just a suggestion.

Well that option's sort of available, but you have to go via a forum post of theirs to get to it

Well, "sort of" is the keyword, I was suggesting to have the functionality without having to tie to a article or post. This way you could contact people that haven't wrote or posted articles. It would be a small change, just a matter of accepting a user id as a param to CP's mail form asp page. Chris might not do this in fear of spammers, I am not sure.
Cheers.

Would it be possible to get http://www.codeproject.com/lounge to point to www.codeproject.com/lounge.asp.. I constantly forget to type the .asp onto the end..

Brian, just make the Lounge your home page,
Thousands of others have done this.

Or:
replace your start page in VS.NET with The Lounge.
