I am excited to talk about Global Mandates the inspiration for developing an eZ Publish based voting engine based on the existing ezinfocollection system.
That system is called Digg [Sigma] which is based on eZ Publish 6 but technically only for it's support for more modern PHP implementations and ease of use general purpose or generic web development framework and a cms, and cmf and so much more right out of the box.
eZ Publish choice here should not be taken lightly. Many previous efforts to re-implement digg like story voting systems have come and gone over the many years we are talking about here but few remain to provide a stable solution basis for others to use quickly in modern web applications. There was one that matured enough to become it's own interesting solution (i forget it's name offhand from general research searches) but I think it was built in drupal.
With an eZ Publish based solution the future is bright for it's continued growth and redistribution and general end user performance and reliability. We implement so that you don't have too. We write so that it will run virtually untouched for the foreseeable future indefinitely without help just electricity. We write once to solve problems from becoming problems.
GM allows our DiggClone Project to grow faster by providing yet another reference implementation changes (modified only to suite non digg branding, not core functionality) to be integrated into the core build of DiggClone. Our next release work will focus on bringing a real home page layout (templates + css + extras) to clone.digg.one and the installable repository of website source code and the demo database sql data dump file.
Will you build a website based upon eZ Publish and 7x Digg, Digg [Sigma], digg.one like GlobalMandates.org Did to create their own unique social website portal platform in hours not weeks?
