The purpose of this blog is to provide an avenue for developers who are contributing to the development of either the metaPost infrastructure or to one or more metaPost providers to share their insights and discoveries as well as tips and tricks.
With the release of metaPost 1.1, there were 4 providers:
- Text/HTML provider
- Blog provider
- FAQs provider
- Ventrian News Articles provider
However, we anticipated that this list would grow as users and developers began to realize how useful offline editing can be for managing DotNetNuke content. The first developer to answer our call and actually begin development on a metaPost provider is Dan Gilleland. I'll let him introduce himself through his own blog entries here on the site, but we're very excited to have him joining the team.
I'll talk more about this when the first third party module is ready for release, but there are several third party module developers working on the development of a metaPost provider that they plan to ship with their module.
If you have an interest in writing a metaPost provider for either your own custom module or for an existing DotNetNuke module, please contact us to let us know.
