Re: Gnome Plone Migration Update

Hi Frederic, 

Thanks for your mail ! So I try to clarify the state of the art:

SVN
===
At svn there is :
http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/gnomeweb-plone/trunk/MainPage/ : The old product for maintaining the front web page
http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/gnomeweb-plone/trunk/gnome.theme/ : A merge of the old GnomeTheme product to a new egg
http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/gnomeweb-plone/trunk/gnome.wgosite/ : The potential place to host all the profiles, configuration and code of the wgo funcionalities
http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/gnomeweb-plone/trunk/wgo.buildout/ : The utility to configure and install the wgo site on any place

BugTrack
========
Maybe we can use bugtrack to write short tasks so we can be organized.

Data.fs
=======
There is a Data.fs that is migrated to plone 3.1 at 

Installation of the actual site
===============================
To install what's on svn you need to do :

cd wgo.buildout
python2.4 bootstrap.py
./bin/buildout
( wait some minutes )
mv var/filestorage/file var/filestorage/Data.fs
./bin/instance fg

and now you can see a plone 3.1 site at http://localhost:8080/wgo3/ 


TODO list
=========

- In my point of view there is are three points on to solve:
  * Skinning : an egg with a theme is needed using viewlets and with the same design as the GnomeTheme product, the gnome.theme egg that is on svn is a clean theme egg to use on that direction ( is an empty plone theme egg with the templates and images that where used on the old GnomeTheme at skins and the code that davconvent wrote to have a second nav at browser folder)
  * Main page : something to generate the mainpage as a collage of different parts ( RSS, banners, splash ), there is an old product at svn called MainPage that does something like that on an old way.The gnome.wgosite egg that is on svn is a clean egg to use on that direction ( is an emply plone egg ) /
  * Content administration : check the actual content and clean/organize it

From this point I can help on coding and some problems but I have not enought time to take care of the project.

Hello Ramon,

Second, I really think that would be better to meet at IRC and just  
decide a TODO list. I can compromise to it.

I am an outsider on this issue but it reminds me a little bit of what
happened with library.gnome.org, it stalled for a long time, without
any progress, and even though Goran never told it was his baby, it was
perceived as is, just like www.gnome.org is perceived as your baby.

Talking about library.go again I arrived, eager to help, but was not
at ease with the existing code base, and I did not do much; then one
day I decided I should not care so much about ignoring code I was not
confident with, that I could remove it and do things differently, that
the most important thing was progress, and too bad if there was a
small regression at first.

I would like to encourage Christopher on this issue; sure you are
still interested in www.gnome.org and don't want anybody to lose time
redoing things, but here again the most important thing is progress,
and I will be much more happy on Saturday evening when Christopher
will post a summary email with "hey ho, look at what achieved today,
my plans for next week is..." than with yet another IRC session.

I managed to write "progress" in each paragraph, this sums up my
position pretty well :)


Regards,

       Frederic
