Expected release of Otto

Posted by mhamm2000 on March 8, 2013 at 1:31am

Is there an anticipated release date for Otto? I'm working with a coworking space in San Diego, and we are looking for a back-end replacement for COBOT.

Thanks for asking! We haven't

Thanks for asking! We haven't set a release schedule for Otto but a sprint is planned for this Saturday, March 9th:

Do you think you can make it? Otto is based on the Droplabs.net website and the sprint is taking place at... you guessed it: Droplabs.

This is very much a volunteer-led open source project and your participation can help us with any or all aspects of the project and get it out the door sooner.

Release date for Otto

Thanks for the update. I'm not a programmer or a user, so I wouldn't be much help. But, I'm working with a group of users that might be able to add input for functionality. I'll forward to them for input.

So happy that you all are working on this sorely-needed project!

Hi all--- just wanted to

Hi all--- just wanted to chime in on this issue. I was thinking about creating a drupal distribution for managing co-working space. I actually got some somewhat related code using Drupal Commerce and Recurring Payment framework and a modified version of Stripe Module. Have you guys started any of the dev for this yet? I might be able to contribute some code and ideas?

Mark

Thanks, Mark! This hasn't

Posted by christefano on March 19, 2013 at 1:38am

Thanks, Mark! This hasn't been built yet and I'd love to hear what you did. I'll send you an email.

We're very interested in using Otto for our coworking space. We are heavy COBOT users with good input, and our San Diego coworking community consists of several developers. We are looking for an alternative to COBOT and would love to chat about the future of Otto and how we might be able to help in its development.

Is there a direct way to contact you ... phone or email? My email is marliese.hamm@gmail.com. Thank you!
