800497 - Rework Dev Derby to use a more sane date-based content interface

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(developer.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Demo Studio / Dev Derby, defect)

Description

[Les Orchard [:lorchard]]

When I first set up dev derby, I was lazy and expected requirements to change. So, rather than create a friendly admin UI, I built it such that you could manage it by editing lists of tags in the constance admin UI to control what content showed up when.

Since then, requirements have not changed much. So, it might be nice to revise the way Dev Derby works so that we don't have to edit long lists of tags.

Les, would bug 684070 cover this?

No. bug 684070 is about automatically rolling over to new content on a scheduled basis. This bug is about ditching the tag-based content management scheme. This bug could make bug 684070 easier, but they are not the same thing.

Dev Derby was put on extended hiatus with bug 1045796. Suggest WONTFIXING this.
