Many thanks to Fredrik for the first community contributed design prototype for the upcoming Userscripts.org release!

He’s also taken the step to creating a page on the wiki for the submission and discussion of design ideas and issues.

I can’t wait for more from our current contributers, Josh and Fredrik, as well as many more! So hop onto the wiki and add your own ideas, as well as thoughts on the current implementations.

Well, after a few hack sessions and a bit of dust busting, we’ve finally opensourced Userscripts.org! So what have we been doing lately?

• Code cleanup. Is the code perfectly streamlined? No. But we’ve begun a major code cleanup that includes writing a full test suite for the site.
• The start of a new site design, courtesy of Josh Watkins. We’re trying to clean things up and focus on what’s really important: finding scripts that will make your browsing experience better.
• De-Ajaxifying the site. When we first wrote Userscripts.org, it was partially a test in some of the newer javascript frameworks. We got a bit excited and made the common mistake of using Ajax in a few places where it simply doesn’t belong. A perfect example of this was the login system. This has been reworked in trunk.
• Forums. Want to discuss a script? Suggest ideas for new scripts? We’ve got forums (well, almost).

Now, alot of things are broken. You can’t even install a script right now! Style and code are both changing rapidly. But we felt like it was important to get something out there that the community could start contributing to.

So without further ado, get the code, file bugs, submit patches, and ridicule us publicly at: http://userscripts.devjavu.com Also, you can also view an up-to-date running copy of the trunk branch anytime at http://dev.userscripts.org
