Source Forge have announced they are retiring the hosted apps platform which supports the Stars! Nova wiki:

Quote:

In case you missed it ...

We wanted to be sure you were aware of some upcoming changes to the
SourceForge project hosting service.

One or more of your projects use the Hosted Apps service. On September 1,
2012, the Hosted Apps service will reach the end of its life and be shut
down. The reasons for this are discussed in the blog post, at
http://sourceforge.net/blog/hosted-apps-retirement/ and in the wiki, at
https://sourceforge.net/p/forge/community-docs/Hosted%20Apps %20Retirement/

Over the coming days, we'll be publishing more documents about how to
migrate your apps to your own project web space, so that none of your data
is lost in this transition. We want to be sure that your project can
continue to operate without interruption, so if you have any concerns,
difficulty with migration, or just want to chat, please send us a note
(communityteam@sourceforge.net).

Please watch the wiki page
(https://sourceforge.net/p/forge/community-docs/Hosted%20Apps %20Retirement/)
for further updates about this process. We'll be back in touch as it gets
closer to the deadline, or if anything about the plan changes.

Thanks again for being part of the SourceForge community.

Have fun.

I saw mash doing some commits recently, yay!

Anyways, I was revising the event messaging between forms prior to updating the Fleet Detail panel to accomodate for the incoming waypoints holding several tasks change, when I realized the GUI is really really spaghetti-ed. Too much business logic mixed in there and the Designer complains in almost every form/panel making it very hard to edit.

I'm going to attempt a whole refactoring of the GUI into some kind of MVP pattern or similar... just something to clear the UI logic away from the non UI routines. I realize this is *yet* another big change, but on the other hand everything is already there and works, I have no intention of recoding things, just reorganizing/splitting them into a few new clases so it shouldn't take as long or be as destructive as the other big design changes.

I'll see if I can dislodge the panels and make them all floating/collapsable in the process with a custom control. The UI lacks flexibility and is not very space efficient as it is now.

I had a little time this afternoon so I consolidated our disscussion on coding style into a Style Guide in the wiki here.

I am currently cleaning up some Style Cop warnings...

Have fun.
