Hello everyone,
it's time to talk about it officially. For several months a new version of P-A has been slowly making its way. This site, which will be online in July for already 3 years. It has served well, but I think it's time to offer (again) a new youth to P-A :)
Unfortunately, the more the site evolves and grows, the more the new versions are heavy, and immensely slow to develop. More users, more cases, more categories, more features. In this sense, the new version (4?5?) will be, I hope, finalized to celebrate the 3 years of this version. That is, in July. I will do my best to make it happen.
Here are the main lines of this project:
- To make P-A a real space of socialization around the accordion and to try to get it out of the status of "supermarket of the score", to give it a real social dimension. It's difficult, it's a lot of thinking but I think it's possible.
- To make P-A a real base of information on the accordion in general. A knowledge base. Thus, a section will be dedicated to the news related to the accordion, automatically managed and aggregated via the various sources of news making rss feeds available.
- A news feed, like social networks. Allowing to visualize what happened in the different categories. Without having to browse the entire website.
- Keep all the existing functionality. Obviously.
- The music section is going to get a makeover. Very badly done in the current state of things, I remain convinced that it is necessary to have a space of expression, for all the composers / singers / musicians. With a real calendar of events. Videos, photos!
- The classified ads will improve, allowing a set of questions / answers with the seller and in general a greater dynamic.
- Revitalize the interactive map to give it a real use. Always in this optics of creation of contact.
- The partition section should be one of the sections that will undergo the least changes. I am studying the possibility of linking, manually or automatically, videos/audio resources with the different scores available in order to facilitate learning.
- The tutorials section will also be greatly modified. As it is currently only used for sharing methods, it will be reduced to a list of the said methods. While on the advice I could read (and I forgot who they came from, but the person will recognize himself :) ) a video section will appear. Giving you the opportunity to give lessons. Skype appointments. On a voluntary basis. The details are still to be defined.
- A REAL administration interface. Intended to relieve the ever increasing work of cindou :) Allowing to have a more professional control on the platform.
- A better email system. To avoid "confirmation link never received."
- More customization for you, more control. In short, more stuff!
- Better rendering and support for mobile devices (smartphone, tablet).
- And a big graphic overhaul. Because eh, the purple one, I can't stand it anymore and it's disgusting :)
This topic will be used to keep you informed of the progress, as well as to collect your opinions / suggestions.
Don't hesitate to express yourself.
That's it!
Without further ado some teasers

Hello to all,
Lots of good ideas...yes, that's a lot of thinking.
The first success of P.A. is of course the important amount of scores at hand but it is obvious that it also had its reverse side which became "supermarket".
The forum is really the weak point of the site which is used for the requests of scores currently.
If new subjects are launched it is true that really debates and analyses will be initiated.
About the RSS feeds that I don't know I will be curious to discover them, it can be a great tool and become the soul of these debates and analyses.
For the rest "wait and see" but bravo to you and to cindou to have refined a unique site and which tends to improve still.

Hello to All
What can I say!!! Many thanks for this very nice and useful site... it is true that starting the accordion late is a matter of a lot of will, training and advice .... so I have already benefited quite a bit but if other development techniques can be clarified especially in video, it will be great... (my first difficulty is the left hand often we don't know how to put a rhythm for some dances) so thank you Slade, Cindou and all the P.A. to offer so much help, advice, explanations.

Hello,
thank you all for your support :)
@dan: For the rss feeds, yes I think it can be nice. I'll have to find good sources to get relevant information :)
@germinon: there is not much to do to help until the site is accessible. Submit ideas, suggestions :)

Hello Slade. I am very touched by this new directive. It answers my call to those who are experiencing difficulties. My experience with one of them, via webcam is revolutionary in terms of communication and understanding. In addition, in terms of knowledge, photos and others, there will be a great surprise. I went to 500 kms from my home to spend an unforgettable day with my great friend Claude Dontenwill (collector) with hundreds of accordions, Emile Prud ' homme, colombo, ferrari, etc...... 50 000 repertoriées partitions and 20 000 in waiting. I convinced him to join us, he is delighted. This man of heart will be for us, a blessing, because his generosity and his passion has no limit. Wishing this site that you created Slade, to be unique. We are very grateful to you and to our beloved cindou. Long live our community !!!!!!!

hi Harmojack
I know CLAUDE well, because he did the same job as us in the
in the industrial sector before retiring, I already know
what is the surprise, it is true that this surprise is enormous
given the photos that I have, enough to flatter the envy of
I must admit that the scores of COLOMBO Joseph and GUS VISEUR which are on the site now were really unobtainable and I have to say that they are
were really untraceable and I thank him again for having
I thank him again for having collected them and exchanged them with me, he also recovered the accordion of COLOMBO but I do not say more, we will discover it soon enough
I hope that he has finally started using computers to exchange with us, thanks to his daughter and I thank him again for the seals he sent me for my bellows which now have a good compression

Hello to you who work a lot to offer us a new site.
I am looking forward to it because I think it will answer perfectly to my wishes and will allow me to progress and to take advantage of the precious advices of professionals.
Thank you again to all those who deposit the scores, unfortunately I do not have any being self-taught for three years, I am therefore part of those who often pinned "as doing their market.
A thousand thanks to all of you and I look forward to the month of July.

Hello Odile,
I remember that you had contacted me in MP. Well, you are part of those who read and animate the forum because in view of the number of people who consult the subjects it is far from being the majority.
Then you have all our esteem and in full in the music.
Good day to you.

Hello,
I totally agree with Cindou about the people with 10000 pseudos (note: what a job to save 15 €!!!): we find them every day in the association.
Only problem: they will never read your post...
I know, I say it every time I have the opportunity to write, but thanks again to you.

A big thank you to SLADE (without forgetting CINDOU11 who does a remarkable job) and to all the others who remain in the shadow, for their personal investments for P.A. It is true that, sometimes, it is enough of a small thing for the community to grow!
There are some very good ideas among the new features; I hope that they will succeed.
Of course, long life to our site.
Very musically and very cordially. Musette27

Hi everyone,
I can't wait to discover the new version but I'm sure that Slade and my friend Cindou11 have done their best to spoil us and satisfy us.

Hello to all,
work is starting again. There have been some problems lately that made me rethink a lot of things. And so, the next version of the website will be developed with new technologies, more secure, faster, more portable. In short, all the better.
The work that was done on the new version is to be redone. I present you the first capture of this total redesign.
Nothing special, but the creation of account, connection is already the first stone of added functionality.
ps: There will be an app for android (at least)
ps2: the site will obviously be fully translated into French.
