Schön das es euch noch gibt und danke für den Deutschen Blog :)
Ich würde gerne mehr tun weiß aber nicht wie ich euch helfen kann den Programmieren kann ich nicht.

Du könntest zB die neuen Spieledatenbanken-News probelesen und die Links durchtesten. :)

(You could proof-read the latest German Database News Roundup and test all the links.)

What about the German version?
The German version is online! :D

Thanks to Independent for proof-reading! 8)

I proof-read the English text and made some changes. Just revert, if you don't like them. :)

And I have to say that I like this new development approach. It seems so logical. The only thing I have problems understanding is the difference between entities and value objects.

Well, the thing with "value objects" took some time for me, too.

Here are some more links
Aggregates, Entities and Value Objects in Domain-Driven Design

What is the difference between Entities and Value Objects?

Presentation: DDD - Value objects

Entity vs Value Object: the ultimate list of differences
very technical, but it has a very good summary:
  • Entities have their own intrinsic identity, value objects don’t.
  • The notion of identity equality refers to entities; the notion of structural equality refers to value objects; the notion of reference equality refers to both.
  • Entities have a history; value objects have a zero lifespan.
  • A value object should always belong to one or several entities, it can’t live by its own.
  • Value objects should be immutable; entities are almost always mutable.
  • To recognize a value object in your domain model, mentally replace it with an integer.
  • Value objects shouldn’t have their own tables in the database.
  • Always prefer value objects over entities in your domain model.

Okay, so I made a decision. In the coming days, I will publish the next Game Database News Roundup in its current state, although being quite outdated by now. Then I'll do the German translation of it, and stop working on these Roundups for the time being.

While it is fun surfing all the game databases out there and seeing the developments, I somehow lost the fun in writing the updates. I want to do real Oregami work again and work on the data model and so forth. :)

If someone wants to take over the GDNR writing, please speak up.
