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

Sumballo is a new Scoop site I'm working on. The goal is to be a place where people can post ideas about technology like computer languages, hardware, etc. I'm hoping that it can become a place where people can announce new projects they are working on or new ways to solve old problems. Things like that. Basically, an idea site with the goal of being used as a tool to help debug and develop concepts. Right now there's just a lot of news postings and some opinion pieces up there. I would love to turn the site into an open forum for people working on papers for publication or just random folks trying to start a new open source (or otherwise) project.

These sites have been up for a while, but I thought I would add them to the list.

RDF/RSS Syndication

I've just scanned all the Scoop sites looking for RSS feeds for the syndic8 (http://www.syndic8.com) project. I was successful on 3 out of 21. Come on guys! RSS export is built into Scoop and yet none of you produce it or flag that you produce it on your home pages.
One problem here is that there is no standard for the file name. I was looking for /backend.rdf as that is what kuor5hin exports.
BTW. Kuro5hin's feed is not updating as often as it should either.

I put up a new site this weekend called Anarchy Online, to be "A Journal of Anarchist Theory and Commentary". It is, as far as I know, the first Scoop site to run on multiple domain names properly, so I'll describe that here as well.

"Write On" is a site for dicussion of (you guessed it) writing. Fiction of any and all genres, non-fiction, random thoughts about writing, short exercises, it's there. About the only thing that isn't done there is critiques of stories intended for publication and publication of fiction. It can be found at http://paradox.homeip.net/write-on/
If you're interested in writing, whether you're experienced or a novice, you're more than welcome to drop by and say hello.
