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

RDF language unsettable...

There was a lack of flexibility in Scoop 0.9 on RDF language. Specificly, Scoop 0.9 don't have a way to set the language in the RDF feed.

I just got my site up (www.madefaction.com) and I'm having trouble figuring out topics and sections. I think the problem is that I have topics with the same name.

I've put together a Scoop-based site with a focus on fiction and poetry (to host my wife's various writing groups), cooking, riding motorcycles, and a few other things. To make it a more complete knowledge base, I have "Wiki-fied" it and, just for fun, added an online version of "NetHack" accessed through the site.
Still rounding up all of my "seed" content providers, but wanted to mention this site because I am so pleased with Scoop's implementation (mad phat props to rusty, et al).

State of Scoop survey
|

Scoop development has been very quiet lately. I don't know whether no
one is working on anything, or whether there are things going on that
aren't being talked about much, or who even still considers themself an
active Scoop developer.
So in an effort to figure out what the state of Scoop development is
right now, I'm cross-posting this to the two scoop lists and scoop.k5.
If you're working on anything related to Scoop, or not currently working
on anything but interested in helping, please respond! I will post the
results to these same places, and hopefully we can restart development
work.
