As mentioned in my first post in this thread, it's all core DNN from a clean install with the minimum number of required modules installed plus one optional module,   the DNN XML module.  Again, no errors, just warnings with many seemingly harmless such as variables not being used.  But again, I prefer coding in a clean environment that is both error free and warning free.

Here's the relevant output from the build:

Curious, I thought Core Team was in the know on this kind of stuff. So how does it work up there on Mighty Mount Olympus? We mere mortals are dying to know. But if you told us, then you'd have to kill us anyway, right? Isn't that the way it works on the Top Secret Stuff like target dates for Cambrian release?

I've been asking for clean build for years. The latest excuse on Gemini was that fixes might break exisiting code.

IMHO, if the compiler complains, there is always a reason and it should always be fixed. The only reason people fix errors is to see their app run.

Heaven only knows if Cambrian will compile cleanly, but there are no excuses left with a brand new version.

Thanks for your support! Glad to know there are other developers who share my point of view.

I'm wondering how architecture, design, development decisions get made for DotNetNuke. Is there a link to a currently maintained document discussing the decision-making process?

Is the decision-making process ever influenced by efforts to conduct surveys or polls of DNN developers who are committed to DNN but not in the Core Team loop?
