What is Scoop
|
Scoop is a "collaborative media application". It falls somewhere between a
content management system, a web bulletin board system, and a weblog.
Scoop is designed to enable your website to become a community. It empowers
your visitors to be the producers of the site, contributing news and discussion,
and making sure that the signal remains high.

Where can I get Scoop
|
|
You can download the latest release tarball: scoop_1.1.8.tar.gz
You can grab the nightly build. Note: This is generated automatically from the current CVS, and may not be reliable! Get that here: scoop-1.1-nightly.tar.gz
The developers strongly recommend CVS as the primary way to obtain Scoop, since releases tend to have pretty long delays between them. If you have CVS installed, do the following:
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@ scoop.versionhost.com:/cvs/scoop login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@ scoop.versionhost.com:/cvs/scoop co scoop
The above is two commands; each one must be on a single line. When prompted for a password for anonymous, enter 'anonymous' (without the quotes). For more CVS info, "Open Source Development with CVS" is an excellent online reference.

Where can I get help
|
|
There are several sources of information and support for Scoop. The first place to look is the scoop-help mailing list. You can browse the archives, or join the list. If you want to post a question, joining the list is strongly recommended. You can also join the #scoop IRC channel on SlashNET.
For documentation, there is the (largely complete) Scoop administrator's guide. You can also read the current
README and
INSTALL files, from Scoop WebCVS (username and password are both "anonymous"). The admin guide is also included with Scoop, in the doc/ directory.
If you have new feature ideas or requests, or descriptions of something you're working on for Scoop, this site is the place to submit them. You can also search this site for information. If you want to get your hands dirty, or have any questions about developing for Scoop, there is also the Scoop-dev list. You can browse the archives, or join the list.
Bug reports and patches should be filed on the Scoop Bug Muncher.
If you have any problems with this site or your user account, e-mail the Admin

At long last, I reveal my secret agenda. I have been tacking minor fixes and altarations onto my submitted patches for a year or so now, in preperation for elininating the last few special-case OPs out there, like the 'hotlist' OP. Finally all the minor pieces are now in place and the hotlist mecanism is calling out to be rewritten, atandardized and improvd. I've written about this in the past in various comments in reply to specific feature requests both here and on K5 proper, but due to the deficiencies of the hotlist mechanism I can't hotist the items and am educed to searching through all my comments and those of others to piece together the requirements around which the new hotlist system should be built. So, herein I record my master plan [insert maniabal evil laugh here] for the hot;ist system

We have discovered a discontinuity in the use of vouchers in V 10.00.02.
This was noticed if the vouchers were programmed in a previous version, in our case this was V07.05.xx.

Doing it hurstdogy Style

I had a rude awakening durring the lunch hour today. I was rejected and advised that I would be more readily accepted if I did it hurstdog style, for the added enjoyment of others. Aparently there are a bunch of people who like to watch and it pleases them to see people doing it hurstdog style.
Although I don't enjoy hurstdog style myself, I recognize that I should be more compationate and consider the needs of others as I get it done.
