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

Sci-Fi Today is Online

I am pleased to announce the official launch of Sci-Fi Today. Building this site has been a labour of love. I started it years ago, but put it on hold for awhile...which eventually became more than awhile. But now it's here. A hangout for science fiction fans and writers, scientists, futurists and science enthusiasts. A place where you can enjoy stimulating and thought-provoking discussions about the latest sci-fi novel or film, the most recent scientific discovery or technological invention, musings and speculations on the future of our world, or even the fictional short stories of anyone willing to share. It is my sincere hope that SFT will soon be the premiere community website for those interested in science and science fiction.

After upgrading to 0.9 and 1.0 when a user comments on an article and returns to either the section listing or the index page, the comment they just made shows as a new, unread comment. Was that routine modified for .9 and 1.0? If so, why?

Hi,
I'm trying the automatic installer and getting the following:
Warning: Cannot install Bundle::Scoop, don't know what it is.
Try the command
i /Bundle::Scoop/
to find objects with matching identifiers.
...
%cpan
cpan shell -- CPAN exploration and modules installation (v1.59)
ReadLine support enabled
cpan> i /Bundle::Scoop/
CPAN: Storable loaded ok
Going to read /root/.cpan/Metadata
No objects found of any type for argument /Bundle::Scoop/
Any thoughts?

After a year of development, babelguides.com is ready for use. The site is all about literature translated to english. It includes much non-scoop information in the database (such as content objects like publisher, person, book, country et al.), but all is handled by scoop.

WorkKitchen is all about sorting out people's work problems. Tell me what you think at the site and (even better) post a story. Personally, I'd like to say a big thanks to all the Scoop developers.
