Well, as I've said in some of my previous posts, I didn't really expect this program to be much-used by DCers. It was pledged rather tongue-in-cheek (reading the program's Description). That said, I've learned the following things while coding it, which certainly can (and hopefully will) be put to a useful application in the near future):
* How to programmatically send and retrieve Gmail using C#
* How to download/upload files programmatically using C#
* How to make use of separate threads for intensive tasks, using C#
* How to use a FileSystemWatcher object to monitor file changes, using C#
As I think I posted elsewhere, I'm hoping to use what I've learned to development a play-by-email game. Had there been any interest shown, I'd have fully fleshed out the reporting features of the program, collating the excuses generated by DCers and maybe adding a vote-for-your-favorite feature.
So, I think I agree with you that it's a strange program, in that it probably isn't going to appeal much in its current incarnation. I see it as a good foundational work for the following future applications:
* a group novel-writing app, that keeps all group members in synch with what the others have written (includes version control)
* as I've said, I have a couple ideas for play-by-email games
* a few more ideas, still rather nebulous
