Hi Quim,
Basically, these are the issues/tasks:
1. Refine DOAP. I've been discussing the problems I had on DOAP mailing
list, and we have come to a solution for all the problems involved (in fact,
we will extend the standard).
2. Refine PloneSoftwareCenter templates to suit our needs (and workflows
accordingly). If David and Ramon agrees, I'd put those modifications in the
"gnometheme" product (especially the modified templates).
3. Add the modification proposals we have agreed on: basically, it involves
the ability to insert Folders, Smart Folders and Pages into the
SoftwareCenter folder ("/Products").
4. Think of a way to better handle the marshaling of Releases and
DownloadableFiles, in order to make it easier for the wgo maintainers to
upload the files and update the site (I was thinking of WebDAV).
5. Fix workflows.
There are some issues, however, which are mainly organizative issues. Right
now, PSC trunk is evolving and there will still be some substantial changes
in my opinion (I guess GenericSetup needs to be integrated ASAP if we want
to use it with Plone 3.0). DOAP is ready, but I am having trouble contacting
who is currently doing the main work in trunk (namely sirgarr) and
coordinate with him for the merge.
Secondarily, we have to see if our changes proposals (point 2) gets the
"Plone approval" or not. If yes, we will implement them in PSC trunk or in a
separate branch?
Last but not least, our templates have to rely on a stable basis of views
and UI. The problem with Gnome Products is that is a work that spans over
three independent projects (DOAP, Plone, GNOME), and everyone has their
rightful reasons and priorities, and trying to sort it all out is not all
that simple. As I stated, it's mainly an organizative issue: the code is
already there, or is really trivial to implement.
Anyway, I have a plan :D
1. I will fix DOAP accordingly to what I discussed in doap-interest mailing
list.
2. I will post a mail in plone product-developement mailing list regarding
PSC: it will be more or less a summary of what I've said in this list.
3. PloneSoftwareCenter is going to be worked on at Sorrento (for what I have
heard/seen). There, having all the people gathered together (almost) we can
coordinate better and I do believe have all the problems sorted out in a
couple of days.
We can however, also start thinking at how to modify the templates.
Greetings,
