[clc-devel] New CRUX/CLC website
Hi all, some time ago I offered to help with the crux/clc website merge, I drop you some proposal/idea in case we're going to start to work on the project during the following weeks. I've been evaluating some wiki package during the last days and my preference goes to wikka wiki: http://wikka.jsnx.com/TestSkin for the following reasons: - lightweight but with interesting features - easy to configure/install/manage - graphically customizable (ie: select the "withew.css" skin in the url above) - good support for ACLs, very useful for subprojects - does not require 3rd party software (just plain php+mysql) In my opinion with something like Wikka we could manage the entire CRUX/CLC website in a collaborative manner, and use cvstrac only as a bug tracker. ====== Apart from the choice of software, we cannot really start something without some knowledge about the physical location of the site. Personally I'd be glad to donate some buck myself, buy some webspace and make it accessible to CLC members. We could host there the site, maybe with the following layout: - isos at fukt.bth.se - cvs and ports at morpheus.net - webpages / docs / subprojects at the new site This is a proposal to avoid spending time administering (and securing) a web/db server ourselves, please let me know if there is some interest. As usual comments and further proposals are welcome. Regards, Simone -- Simone Rota WEB : http://www.varlock.com Bergamo, Italy MAIL: sip@varlock.com

Apart from the choice of software, we cannot really start something without some knowledge about the physical location of the site. Jay mentioned on IRC that he might help us here, since he has some connections to a local university (I hope I remember that correctly). Jay, can you elaborate on this?

I agree with that. I especially like the way to embedd own code with "actions". Like already mentioned I am going to integrate my ports database into the CRUX/CLC website. So I want to ask if this should stay a one-man-project or if anybody is interested in collaborating. In case there are volunteers I suggest to write a white paper describing the current implementation and my ideas. So we have a basis for discussions about features, implementation and improvements.
