A while back, I started talking about this idea for the Grails Podcast to run a “Groovy Awards” to recognise those people in our community that do an awesome job on the mailing lists, blogosphere, releasing plugins, and all that jazz. No big prizes - just some cheezy TShirts with a lot of love from the community.
Well I’ve had a few nights off this week, so I finally got around to putting together a super simple site to handle the process. Also gave me a chance to play with JSecurity Plugin (for admin tasks) and the P6Spy plugin (for database profiling). Both totally awesome. Will blog those up separately.
I’m 90% there on the skeleton. Just need to workout a moderation strategy (maybe don’t even need one? Really just to stop bot spam). Anyways the CSS still needs some work, but…
Anyways, I’ll post the progress up on github RSN if you’re keen to follow along. It’s just over 300 lines, so it’s pretty bare bones. More info once it goes live and you can have a play… Give me a week…
