Regarding the FOP Faq-O-Matic? http://www.owal.co.uk:8090/asf/fop.jsp

Essentially the Jyve (Java FAQ-O-Matic) program is about a year old - and uses another
Apache project called Turbine. Turbine is a web application framework library under
constant
development. Unfortunately Turbine development continues and Jyve didn't.
The security mechanism changed including roles for users and so although people can
actually register with my FAQ system they don't have permission to enter things.
(I have superuser priviledges so I can add things in...)
This is one of the underlying problems with the main Apache FAQ (the one on apache.org)
You may have spotted "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" mentioned on the FAQ home page along with
a grovelling apology for me not fixing it earlier.
The very good news is that there is a new version of Jyve around. Hooray.
So the plan is.
1) Setup a new FAQ system with the new Jyve from CVS (including putting
it on an installation of apache with a correctly configured mod_jk)
2) Copy the FAQ data from the old system to the new one. - preferably
in an automated fashion.
The FOP FAQ is the one I am most interested in, but there are all the
other Apache FAQs too.
Once we have done this there are loads of cute features to add, but they are really
bells and whistles...
PS The CVS details are listed at
http://jakarta.apache.org/site/cvsindex.html
I have lost the details for the Jyve mailing list. I can post it next week and
maybe take this discussion off this list.
