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

The Edge City Chronicle's version 2.0 BETA has gone live at chron.edgecity.net. This is, as far as I have ever seen, the furthest anyone has deviated from the Scoop templates from a design standpoint. We created new templates to help make Scoop's tools & features more accessible to our less technically-savvy core audience. Love to hear what the Scoop community thinks.

My personal website has been moved over to scoop. If you are interested in how Scoop could be used for a less blog-oriented CMS, check it out.

Yep, I finally made the switch. hackerheaven.org is now a scoop site. I couldn't get it to work om apache2, but I set up another apache on another machine, and it's kinda up and running now.
It's a bit in flux, but things are pretty stable. Drop by and say hello!

Not exactly new, but a notable 'campfire' scoop site nonetheless. Functioning more or less as a rogue blog, the account features have been turned off... Drop by. Badgergoose.com.

Well, it's not 100% up just yet (the graphics aren't all done, and neither is the site colors, etc) but it's fully functional - sign up now! The primary focus of this site is guppies, but most live bearers will be discussed here. :-)

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.
