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

I probably should have posted this a while ago, but pipebox.net is up and running Scoop after a fairly easy install. Come on by and have a look.

Show queue size in RDF
|
|
By fluffy grue , Section Wishlist [] Posted on Mon Sep 02, 2002 at 12:00:00 PM PST

Simple enough: it'd be nice if the RDF had an entry for the queue, with something like "10 stories pending" with a link to modsub. That'd be nice for the low-traffic sites like InTune.
On a related note, a story comment would be nice, even if it's out-of-date.

scoop on Xitami?
|

By sethadam1 , Section Code [] Posted on Sun Sep 01, 2002 at 12:00:00 PM PST

I run both Linux and Windows at home. I have played with Scoop before, but since I just set up a new server, I have been using the super fast, super flexible Xitami web server to serve my web pages locally. I don't know too much about it other than the fact that it is apparently widely used, cross platform, and extremely easy to administer. Has anyone ever attempted to get a Scoop site to work with Xitami?

On the fly: Awake.ca

Hello! We've pounded the bugs out of our Scoop site, and present for your approval
Awake.ca. Awake's focus is quite broad, running
the gamut of current news, events, opinion and ideas. Sure, we overlap a bit
with K5. Except we're smaller. And yellow. And different. We're the Nuprin
of Scoop sites.

Sporks R Us
|
|
By Vladinator , Section New Scoop Sites [] Posted on Fri Aug 30, 2002 at 12:00:00 PM PST
|

I just realized that I didn't submit a YASS on my latest endevor: Sporks-r-us which continues in the grand tradition of Geekizoid. Stop by! And, play our new PHP based game Arcasia! Which is the game we all spend just about every waking minute playing. Also, expect a new YASS shortly, as I've taken to guppy breeding as a hobby, and plan to be posting some stuff on that too shortly...
