Could we put up a page on OpenACS.org with links to the canonical source for the recommended version of all the software the we rely on?
This should be a "Download" page, and should be a link on the top nav bar, next to "News", "Forums', "Community", etc.
Example: After Don's change last night, stuff broke, and it seems that I need a new version of nsxml. Great. Couldn't find a link from an openacs.org download page.
Google gave me this:
http://acs-misc.sourceforge.net/nsxml.html
When I checked out, all I got was a README file that said the repository had moved. Any chance we could update the acs-misc page to say that, instead of only having that message in the CVS repository? Who's maintaining that page?
Right now, the OpenACS download page is using the 'download' module, and it's under
/projects/openacs/download. There's also a /software page, which offers links to a seemingly quite random collection of things.
I'll be happy to take on the job of streamlining this a bit, if we can agree on what the structure should be.
Where should the "here are all the things you need to get started with OpenACS" including links to install documentation, etc., page live?
