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. More >>

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

my Scoop TODO Developer Diary
By panner , Section Dev Notes []
Posted on Sun Jun 10, 2001 at 09:37:35 PM PST

Well, right now, my immediate TODO has the following on it:

  • Finish up the new cron system and put it in. I'm about 95% done with this, just need to write a script to run from crontab.
  • I've fixed the double quote bug (I think). I just need to test it some more and put it in.
  • Hotlist has some problems with stuff like being hotlisted from a section, which is because it only adds the op to "redirect" to. Need to fix this.
  • DJBongHit sent me a "patch" so that "X words in body" is only displayed if there is a body. Need to put this in.
  • I've been working on a new url style, which I'm about 80% done with. Once I finish up the function to make them, I'll check it in, but that will just be support for them. Scoop will keep making the old url's for now.
  • After that, I'll start switching scoop over to new url's.

Why? Developer Diary
By Mystic , Section Dev Notes []
Posted on Sat Mar 24, 2001 at 06:50:17 PM PST
Why is there no option to see just the story and not the comments attached to it? Sometimes it really is good for me to tjust judge a story by just looking at the story and not at the comments. Sometimes I just want to read things fast and head somewhere. I just can't wait for the 50 odd comments to download.

Why is the "Your" used in the side box. Why not "My"?
