Mockup is viewable http://69.67.174.135:8000/home/
Website redesign goals:
1. Convert the current website to an Xowiki implementation.
2. Upgrade the main template to zen.
3. Mount an instance of Calendar, Forums, BugTracker and ProjectManager on the site.
To Do:
1. Replicate OpenACS layout
a. Apply the CSS code in the while website.
b. at /acs-subsite/www/group-master the CSS include parameter has strange
behavior
2. Look at favorites to include the sites at the search contact phase
What about the content that are already in xowiki pck?
3. Missing packages to be installed and sections to be developed.
a. Bugtracker - I believe it's a package. I remember it available at repository. (done)
b. How the sections are developed? Are they pkgs, xowiki pages or subsites?
Documentation - ???
Community - Xowiki page
and Download - File-storage UI
4. Troubles when include pkgs in xowiki. Edit news-portlet package to be included at xowiki page. (Ask dave to cvs the widgets tempates)
5. Send Email to about News and Forum to be included on the main page.
6. What do we need to ask to the experienced people?
the answer is we ask for experienced suggestions
7. wait Robert setup the zone and make the mockup.
8. I'm afraid having the main page as plain text would compromise the information/content. Info need to be visible.
9. News - Add Xinha text editor
10. Discuss what way is the best to take
Iuri: on xowiki?
as a xowiki page?
linuxhooligan: well that was the original idea but i don't think it should be in xowiki
xowiki is for documentation
text types of documents
Iuri: i don;t get the whole pciture of that
linuxhooligan: if we start putting everything in xowiki then we can just get rid of the tabs
i know i know its confusing
Iuri: yes
one thing
linuxhooligan: lets talk about it and see if we can figure it out
i'm open to suggestions
11. When rob give the instance.
He will convert community and documentation to xowiki at openacs website.
12. PHASE I
Make a presentation of OpenACS website possible implementation.
Post forums, ask for inputs
Mount Calendar
PHASE II
Mount Project Manager and fix it up

----- ACS-MAIL-LITE -----
Envelope sender disappeared during the refactoring of send between 5.3 and 5.4 and therefore was set using the from address. This led messages to be identified as junk by SPF, and bounces to be sent back to the user. This is a fix that puts the correct envelope sender back.
Since acs_mail_lite::send now accepts a multiple TO address, the user_id part of the bounce address it set to 0 if there are ...

Note: This release notes were created based on the change log from tag openacs-5-4-2-final to openacs-5-4-3-final on the branch oacs-5-4. (view full change log)
ACS-MAIL-LITE
Envelope sender disappeared during the refactoring of send between 5.3 and 5.4 and therefore was set using the from address. This led messages to be identified as junk by SPF, and bounces to be sent back to the user. This is a fix that puts the correct envelope sender back.
Since acs_mail_lite::send now accepts more than one TO address, the user_id part of the bounce address is set to 0 if there are more than one receiver.
ACS-TEMPLATING
Fix: Close tag for label was generated even when the opening one wasn't present.
Implementation of implicit association in forms to satisfy checkpoint 10.2 (label tag must wrap the form widget).
Remove the use of table to layout the date widget so it will now output valid HTML strict.
SEARCH
fix for bug #3154
don't hardcode localized string ("feeling lucky" was working only for english)

Site administration tasks such as permissioning, bulk mandatory notifications, and navigation to admin areas are cumbersome or unavailable. They are thrown together into the acs-subsite package when they should be offered in their own package.
(DAVEB The admin pages are in acs-subsite for a good reason, I think. They are tied to each subsite, so you can manage the administration of a single subsite. Now that it is possible (although maybe not easy quite yet) to define a subsite install with pre-defined packages underneath it, it would make sense to split out the admin to a separate package which could be customized).
This wiki will allow interested contributors to offer suggestions along the lines of an Admin Package. This package may only actually be a series of patches applied to existing packages; or it may be a new package altogether. Since most of the functions themselves already exist, this package will most likely consist of consolidating or calling existing code, and cleaning up the UI.
A New Kind of Administrator
The Site Administrator for OpenACS may have originally also been the package developer and the system admin. But now clients are taking on the role of subsite manager. Tech neophytes are granting permissions, mounting new packages and approving members. This is especially the case in Non-Profit organizations using OpenACS on a limited budget. They just can't afford to pay their vendor to admin the site. So they ask us to teach them how to do it. Thus the context and identity of the Administrator has changed, requiring us to raise the bar on usability for all major Admin functions.
1) Notifications
Notifications for OpenACS were developed under it's web community context to allow only users to sign up for their own notifications. In a corporate environment or a setting in which members are required to receive certain e-mails, bulk subscription is a requirement. For instance a web company which uses bug tracker to manage change requests will create a subsite for each client with a bug-tracker under each one. Then the administrator will have to sign the user up for notifications manually, every time. The preferred functionality would allow one initial sign up of a group to notifications for a logger application. Then all subsequent members joining the group would be automatically signed up for notifications.
Victor Guerra has patched notifications with user and group subscription functionality which works quite well. But it is still tied to the package. A single interface for all notifications spanning *across* subsites is necessary.
2) Permissions Management
Administrators routinely work with users, groups and application permissions, but these are spread out across the site. Site wide permissioning tasks such as granting 10 applications in a subsite different permissions is extremely tiresome requiring multiple navigation clicks to navigate from permission screen to permission screen. The genius of the OpenACS permissioning system is obscured by a poor UI. A single interface for permissions would make large admin tasks like this much easier.
3) Group Management
Admins must be able to view which groups a member belongs to, and be able to remove that member. This feature already exists. In addition, admins must be able to easily:
4) Member Management
/acs-admin/users/ is a good search tool for maintaining members, and it is available through a developer support link, but it is not implemented on the Members list where it might be used most effectively by administrators and non-administrators with member list access. Also site administrators cannot rely on developer support as they may not have permissions. On the members page admins should be able to search for a user via an AJAX lookup field by name and e-mail address. We can borrow this from FreeMED. Once a member is selected, the member screen available to admins listing notifications, permissions, group memberships and the existing links in /members/one.tcl will appear.
Developed under the subsite model, many UI and human interactive features satisfied local subsite requirements, or the requirements of very small sites. As OpenACS expands, the UI must accommodate the desire of site wide administrators to notify, permit and manage users anywhere on the site.
5) Site Map and Subsite Applications Redundancies
The Site Map and the Subsite Application tab are redundant pages. Both split the site tree, node mounting, adding deleting, and renaming. This should be under a single interface, probably using the Site Map UI (or a better Tree UI).
Members, Groups, Notifications and Permissions interact in the following ways to give us our ideal UI:

After following:
Debian Installation Instructions
Documentation
nano /usr/share/doc/openacs|dotlrn/README.daemontools on openacs package.
apt-get install daemontools daemontools-run
# OpenACS nano /etc/default/openacs
... or ...
# .LRN nano /etc/default/dotlrn
# OpenACS /etc/init.d/openacs stop
... or ...
# .LRN
/etc/init.d/dotlrn stop
# OpenACS ln -s /usr/share/openacs/etc/daemontools /etc/service/openacs
... or ...
# .LRN
ln -s /usr/share/dotlrn/etc/daemontools /etc/service/dotlrn
Now you can control the dotlrn service using the svc command:
* To start the service: svc -u /etc/service//openacs or dotlrn
* To stop the service: svc -d /etc/service//openacs or dotlrn
* To restart the service: svc -t /etc/service/openacs or dotlrn
apt-get remove --purge openacs or dotlrn
apt-get install openacs or dotlrn
Edit the config.tcl file:
nano /etc/openacs|dotlrn/config.tcl
Change the following parameters to fit your needs:
set hostname Your hostname
set address to Your public IP
and found that I had to figure out how to:
su - $OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME pg_dump -f /var/lib/aolserver/$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME/database-backup/before_upgrade_to_4.6.dmp openacs-dev ls -al /var/lib/aolserver/$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME/database-backup/before_upgrade_to_4.6.dmp exit
The $OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME
which I thought would be "dotlrn"
turned out to be "www-data"
Next I found there was no /var/lib/aolserver but there are /var/lib/dotlrn and /var/lib/postgresql
The default paths show the locations that were decided upon (in early 2004) so below we will try to document were things are in a standard dotlrn installation, now.

It's imperative that you secure your installation. As Jon Griffin repeatedly warns us, "No distribution is secure out of the box."
A Reference Platform implements some basic precautions, but security is a process, not a condition. If you are responsible for a computer hooked to the internet, you are responsible for learning some rudiments of security, such as monitoring the state of a computer, maintaining patch levels, and keeping backups.

There are generally 2 strategies at this point:
For a quick installation, we recommend the two scripts at naviserver-openacs. These will install OpenACS from scratch on a variety of systems (including Debian/RHEL Linux or Mac OS X). Detailed dependencies are listed during the build process.
For other ways to install or try OpenACS See openacs-system-install.
We recommend installing only the OS to minimize the chances of conflicts resulting from installing 2 or more copies of one of the OpenACS system components (openacs-system).
Many additional programs, such as a build environment (gcc), Mail Transport Agent (MTA), and source control system, are also needed for a fully operational installation. Most of these are included with a basic OS installation.
You might want to install some of these after a minimum OS install, since OpenACS administration usually assumes you have these (or alternates) installed:

The OpenACS Documentation is organized as follows:
- Core Documentation ( 1:1 direct copy of what exists )
- Package Documentation ( 1:1 direct copy of what exists )
- Subsystems Documentation ( systems multiple-perspectives view )

This is Approach 3 of the en:Documentation_Project as defined in en:Documentation_Project_Discussion.
Official documentation will go into openacs.org/test-doc (to be renamed) generate from there the html pages for documentation, therefore the first result is to update the documentation to reflect current tools, version, correct commands, all done within that wiki instance
The process for generating technical documentation is:
Then the process can start again for the next documentation release.
Following moved to this context, which is using approach discussed by Malte below:
Malte here:
Instead of doing it manually (though this does have some merit), I would go and modify the script Gustaf provided to import the whole documentation in one go into a new XoWIKI instance with the structure (page_order) that has been added in XoWIKI 0.42 taken from the chapters of the documentation so that we do have an exact mirror of the documentation as it stands now.
Once this is achieved we could go on and assign categories to the documentation, allowing for an alternative view on the documents (so you could say "instead of showing the whole documentation only show the documents for a specific category"). Probably this needs some more detailed discussion with Gustaf finding out how this could be achieved in XoWIKI and what would make most sense. Ideally we could provide a different structure based on the target group (e.g. category) but this is probably shooting too far. Getting categorization and page ordering in a decent shape should provide us a lot of possibilities.
Suggestion by Rob Taylor:
1a. Move all but maybe the first and last 2 items from https://openacs.org/doc/dev-guide.html to https://openacs.org/doc/kernel/dev-guide.html and refer to them in context of the kernel package (or whatever package their code is in). That helps developers see appropriate context. (This will likely require a board discussion and TIP
