One reason advertisers gave for not advertising on devtome is that it is about everything, and many advertisers prefer sites focusing on one topic.

To give advertisers the focus they want, an open source blog website could be made. Writers would have their own blogs, and those blogs that became popular would get advertisers, and that money would go to those writers. The content on all blogs would be mirrored on devtome. This way the writers would get advertising money, and devtome would get more content.

To start, maybe the blogs could be on Steemit, expanding what develCuy is doing. Eventually it would probably be best to make our own blog site, so people would know that everything on the domain would be open source.

That is good news too!

So it seems that we need to offer some bounties for

1) Ongoing hosting of the devtome.com server
2) Ongoing Administration of the Devtome.com server (since it might be different than the hosting provider)
3) Coordination between existing and new devtome.com administrators and the migration of data from the old and new servers

What bounty values are we proposing for these ?

Did I miss any?

Great news Nova!!! 

Just received word back from Devtome Administrator. They do not want to see DevTome lost either and will aid in any way that they can. It is costing them at the moment to host it.

Soo nice to hear from you, Melodie. Somehow your great misadventure with your wallet was unknown to me (or forgotten as there is the senior's moment plea now available to me. ). Don't forget to get your new DVC address on your profile. Old wallets are getting dusted off.

- Nova

Pretty sure there is a line of communication with the site admin, lobois1337, yet a backup in hand could always get a guy a reward up the road if it is just an automated process.

Let me explore contacting the present site admin before we award bounties, thanks.

Sounds great, develCuy. My thoughts were to use somehow SMTs (https://smt.steem.io) when they become available.

- Nova

Definitely too much invested in DevTome to throw it away at this point. We might want to to look into creating an AdSense compliant content branch so that it can begin generating some cash flow as promised, though. We may want to think of some uses of blockchain that have come to be since DVC's conception. Chains like steem, for example. Could there be something that the DVC blockchain could bring to the alt coin table that is not already there?

- Nova

And then there was one. Gotcha.

Excellent Develcuy!  Thank you for getting the source code repository straightened out and in the right place again!

Cheers!

Regarding repositories, I have transferred the two repositories of (website and theme) to http://explorer.devcoin.info/

- https://github.com/devcoin/block_explorer
- https://github.com/devcoin/block_explorer-theme

Note that this website needs a lot of love! Any designer available to help with CSS and HTML?

I confirm that @ctya has successfully transferred ownership of devcoin organization in GitHub to my account!

This is the new URL of the official devcoin repository: https://github.com/devcoin/core

Please someone give @ctya a drink!

Hey Melodie!  I wondered where you disappeared to!  I had problems with my old forum account as well and had to start with a new user name.

Would you do that using the doku wiki platform it is using now, or would you need something else?

Hello again after a very long time.

I finally found my way back here, it has been a couple of years and I am really sorry I haven't been around, we had some pretty serious family stuff going on. I now have to set everything back up again.

I don't know if anyone will remember me, I was melodiem. I got an email from Nova chasing up Devtome admins (thanks Nova, I needed a kick) and I have managed to sign back into devtome and deleted the devcoin address my coins were going to. (hoping the thief gets some use out of them and karma slaps him around a bit!) I had lots of trouble getting back into this forum (the devcoin.org forum doesnt seem to be up?) but a new username seems to have fixed that  but now I have hit a snag.

In all the drama here my computer was stolen with my devcoin wallet on it so I am trying to setup a new one. I downloaded the windows one from devcoin.org but it wouldn't connect, it says no connection available so after uninstalling and reinstalling a few times I then downloaded the one from darkgamex but it wont connect either. Can someone help me sort this out?

I know I was all over this a few years ago but I have to admit I am feeling very much like a noob and I need some help.

We are on cyclone watch up here right now and I have to go move a boat tomorrow so I wont be able to check back for a couple of days but I promise to be back and to be just as annoying as ever

I still love everything Devcoin stands for and hope I can help the community in positive ways

Melodie

So should I begin migration of the site?

That would be awesome develCuy!!!

I can integrate devtome with STEEM, so that users can receive STEEM and SBD tokens for their original content published via devtome.com, DVC bounty for authors will remain the same. I think nobody is unhappy with more profits

Yes! I also wish it to remain active!


Very true Papa! It has been a very valuable asset for the community and it can do much better! We should revamp it someway... 

I am definitely for Devtome to continue to remain in service.  I wish there was a way it could be better monetized and revitalized.
