@pc guru i ddnt say jQuery is a plugin, it started off as a pluggin an then became a library. Also, am not saying you guys should develop a javascript library, i just used jQuery as an example. Its good to do something different!

#Suggestion 1
Payment gateway
Challenge: Battle InterSwitch, Etranzact, etc and get something good enough we can call a Nigerian payment gateway
Target: Nigerian paypal

More suggestions still to roll out.

@Fayimora I need your contact info. My email is on my profile.

@Omnipotent
I think I support this online payment thingy to rival Interswitch. The good thing about it is that it will be open source which will make the current industry leaders to run out of business.As web developers with websites to our name, we couls implement it on our sites.

This has got me really thinking. An open source platform that supports businesses to grow and also supports greater social netwroking capability.

Enough of the idea contribution.
What i suggest now is that we should cast a vote on the available idea provided.
Then the idea with more vote should be carriedout.
What do you think?

Great, so can we first identify the ideas suggested so far?

@all
What is happening to this topic?

YOu mean what has happened? .lol They have all drop down their ideas and disappeared. Thats what happens on NL. My advice, if you are serious about an opensource project, start one, Make something work and then put in a public repository for contributions

WORD

I actually ignored this post as I discovered that we are not really cut out for a groupware right now. I am currently developing smaller applications and scripts I can easily give out for FREE.

That is very true. That is why i single-handed built my framework - am already working on documentation.
If it is not working - Nigerians are just not interested.

Then why did you come up with the post at first?

He thought it was a great idea - and i believe so too - but like dual core said - the most important
code we naija developers need is - a roof over our heads!

Is that what you beleive also?

Caramba! But of course, that is what i have observed, and si, i believe so.

At times, i don't know if people really know that two head's are better than one, and i also think that some people are weak to become a leader or afraid to handle such post.

Am out until further notice.

HAHhaha take it easy guys! Like I said, if you have an opensource project in mind, you cant immediately collaborate here(except if u meet in person). However, develop your idea practically to some working stage or something, then put ur stuff in a repo and see the amount of contributors you would get!

Am in to this project, am a lady though, bt that doesnt mean you guys cn underestimate me. Lol!
Am basically into cake"PHP",ruby,C++,java,python and a little of oracle and asp.

Anyone on good in asp? You guys can help out,i need to learn it well

off topic. @chillaz. You so fine

Cool welcome. Why you asking about ASP? Do you need some help? If yes then it would be better if you just post your difficulty and someone would definitely help ya. You alone(i mean female) with those languages!!! Impressive.

@remoranger hmmmm

Lets just say you can ask me anything! Dont wanna start listing Am mostly in the Programming section though. . .

Hahahahahhaa when its comes to a group project on nairaland, forget it!

Since Open Source Project don hard us like piss hard fowl, pls let us think about Closed Destination Project.

Until Nigerians learn to work together, we can't achieve big. We only get fractions here and there that never make a name or cross our different local offices.

Seems this topic sef go enter sleep mode.

Very dulling.

Why did I even waste my time suggesting too. I guess I was dizzy when I did and also forgot I was to deal with Nigerians, lol

I knew it from the start. . .that it would kinda end like this (simplemente because we are Nigerians)
