It might be interesting as an open source project, but I can't see it as having too much value, especially with hosting services like Dreamhost giving people 1 click installs of Wordpress.
- gotrythis 15y agoThat is a possibility I'm also considering. There are also commercial applications that hosts like dreamhost obviously cannot install for people. And this would always have the most up-to-date version, maintained by the application writer.
- calvin 15y agoDreamhost and other providers DO have simple installers for things like WordPress. Most good providers do. If people are using these hosts, they won't need your tool. Honestly I'd be worried if I saw somebody using a tool like this to install WordPress. Too much potential for abuse. It's not that I don't trust you, but I don't trust the other nefarious guy who will build SEO and setup a site to install corrupted versions of WordPress for people.
