How do you keep plugging away at a solo or open source project that doesn't have any monetary compensation when the "proof of concept" part is finished?
(My own are floundering...and need an injection of enthusiasm)
Any tips/ideas?

Not sure if this will connect with you, but here goes. My HOPE project, for example, the proof of concept was done in a week, but then I realized what cool things I could do with it, pulling in other technologies, subjects, and so forth. Plus, there's always the arc of taking a PoC and polishing it into a professional application, something I enjoy doing as well.
I experienced the same thing with MyXaml -- in that case, the PoC took an hour or two, but there were a lot of interesting directions to take the concept, polish the code, write wrappers for .NET classes that didn't support deserialization, add some automation, etc.
So, I suspect you can think of several "arcs" that you could explore to continue work on the project.
And, what is the project? Got a link?

Project is a CQRS on Azure framework and proof of concept website but the only link I have so far is a holding page.

We Rastafari make soup with soluble saab
Haile Selassie looks a bit like Bouillabaisse?
Remove the letters of soluble saab from bouillabaise and you are left with two i's, so We Rastafari must equal ii somehow.

Not only those. My first car was a tiny R5[^]. The only thing that did never let me down was the motor

At the start of the new year, I switched to a windows phone (Lumia 730) from android.
After 2 months of usage, I am not regretting it.
Initally I had few hiccups adjusting to it but then it was a smooth sailing.
To be honest I am impressed by the phone.My device is really not at the high end but its smooth and display are vibrant.
The actions are smooth and I see no lagging.Most of the feature I used as an app in android, is part of the OS.
Battery and data plan managemebt is really good features of OS. No extra apps needed.
The only issue I had/have was too much intergration with the social networking. But few tweaks took care of it. And also trying to streamline the contacts info.
My final impression, Win phone is not a bad choice at all. Hope few more people give a try and see its pros and cons.
cheers,
Super

The phone itself and the OS are ok, actually very snappy and fast! BUT... if you try to switch back to Android (or iOS) you are in for some troubles! for example you can never get your SMS back, you can't even export them!
I tried WinPhone, I liked the OS but I hated the fact that Microsoft tried to lock me in WinPhone with nasty tricks like the impossibility to export SMS!
I'm back to Android and glad I did.

SMS massages are automatically backed up to "the cloud" or whatever...Outlook.com?
It's a pain in the butt to get to, completely non-obvious, but they're there.
Google/Bing it to get instructions on how to access it...I don't remember. :p

They are backed up on the cloud somewhere and you can get them back... but only on a WinPhone device, if you want to get them back on anything else you just can't. Microsoft in their great commercial wisdom are trying to lock you in the Winphone world by allowing your data in but not out.
|
|

|

Well, I have and see no real need to get them back onto the phone...or any other device. I'd just use messages from a year ago for forensic evidence, etc.

Who keeps their SMS stuff? I've never understood message or email hoarders (or even digital hoarders in general. I've been at several companies where IT has asked people to purge their emails, sometimes in the terabytes, and finally just did it themselves [the worse offenders usually being executives and marketing with crazy big attachments.] One company finally put a cap on attachments and purged all attachments after six months or so.)

I really like it, with the exception of some media playback issues which have been there since I moved to windows phone 18 months ago.
No gapless playback when playing local media, the generally crappy 'xbox music' app in the first place.
The audio popping, when skipping ahead in some videos there will be a very loud crack even if the sound is turned off, and at the end of songs it will occasionally replay some of what was (presumably) left in the buffer again, so you get an extra frame of audio from the previous song as the next starts.
