Today, I worked on the drop down navigation for Oneroom. I still need to style it but it should not take too long

Chris reminded me I didn’t designed the blog page and single page for the WPSynergy.org theme. Abhishek, where are you in the development of the theme? I will try to design them next week so you can move forward in the development and hopefully complete the theme.

Chris, I think we need to explain somewhere how to grab files from SVN. It is way to complicated for most users to get our themes and contribute. Maybe we could write a short tutorial here or on TRAC on how to use SVN (I think the latter wold make more sense). What do you think?

Some quick updates for May 2010
jeeremie
WPSynergy theme
I talked to Abhishek and he told me WPSynergy theme for the wpsynergy.org site is 50% completed. He told me he will try to finish a beta version before end of this weekend. This is good news. We will soon be ready to release our themes to the public.
Themes in development
I am actively working on Modmat and Splendid, a new theme I came up with while I was redesigning Modmat. Below are some screenshots of the themes. Please note this is a work in progress. Feedbacks are welcome! (Click on the image to enlarge it)

Splendid first Mockups – screenshot

OneRoom
We will need to fix a few bugs for OneRoom before we can release it on WPSynergy.org. If someone wants to contribute to this theme, read the open tickets here.
Pignews
Pignews is 98% completed. Chris should fix the latest bugs but feel free to help him. Open tickets
Trac
I have cleaned up Trac a little bit and created new milestones, components and new tickets to reflect the advancements. If you are just jumping on the bandwagon, go there and pick up a component or milestone to work on. I will try to add new tickets this week so go check often.

Wordpress 3.0 New features
jeeremie
WordPress 3.0 will be released in May 2010. It comes with many new features.
- Merge of WordPress MU + WordPress.org
- Custom Post Types
- Better Navigation Menus
- New Default Theme 2010
- Custom Background Support
- Author Specific Templates
- Ability to Choose Username When Installing WordPress for security reasons
- Welcome Guide in Every Installation
and…
- Canonical Plugins
The idea behind Canonical plugins is interesting:
“Have you used a plugin that you loved, and the author discontinued providing support. No bug fixes, no upgrades, and the plugin initially breaks in newer versions. This is a common issue therefore with WordPress 3.0 there is a mission that Jane Wells is carrying which is to unite the plugin authors and come up with canonical plugins. Canonical plugins are developed by a community instead of one developer, so if one person steps down, the plugin does not die.” source: WPbeginner.comFinally it is very much what we are doing with our themes. Should we use the term “canonical themes” when we refer to our themes?

I made a simple mockup for Trac:

Chris, can you implement the design? It would be nice to do the same for SVN. Here are the images you will need:

Chris made a few changes on his server and now trac.wpsynergy.org is replaced by http://bugs.wpsynergy.org/ . Update your bookmarks.
