Re: Meetup at ApacheCon? -- Room nearby!

2005-05-30 Thread Johannes Schaefer

Good news: we can have a room at the FHT for the
evenings, thanks to Prof. Hauber. The faculty is
close by the conference center, see
http://www.hft-stuttgart.de/Hochschule/wirueberuns/Lageplan/
It's right below the ApacheCon sign in the map
http://apachecon.com/2005/EU/images/Stuttgart-Plan_gross.gif

We'll need to decide when we'll meet.

Prof. Hauber works in the area oif Internet Technologies,
Web Programming, Web Content Management Systems, and
Open Source Software. One special interest is in Apache
(he'll try to join the conference).

Looking forward to see you all there!

Well there will be at least three of us there. That makes it worth

Anyone else going to ApacheCon Europe?



Count me in.



And me, yes all the way from the antipodes
just to meet up with you people.

I haven't decided how long yet, but certainly
some extra days.





WOW!

That is awesome.
Nearly all Forrest PMC will be there.

That is just great.

Thanks David for coming from downunder. :)



I can see I will have to extend my stay. I was planning on just a couple 
of nights since my wife and child will be visiting friends elsewhere in 
Germany. However, if we are all to be there...

Dear Apaches,

there was a misunderstanding:

I am _interested_ in the areas mentioned above, I _don't_ really
work in those areas (I just teach them to undergraduates).
I work mainly in IT Security and Cryptography.

Looking forward to meeting you all,
Peter (Hauber)

Tim Williams wrote:

 it got me thinking that maybe there
 should be a little skininfo.xml in each skin directory where the
 current status of the skin could be pulled

Would it make sense to also pull a short description of the skin so
that users can get a list of available skins including a short
description (with the available-skins command).

That way we could perhaps stop maintaining the descriptions of skins
on the web site and simply have each skin explain itself. Might be
useful to include the development status of the skin in the listing as
well.

 Thorsten, you started this thread, and Cheche you said me too.
 However neither of you followed up to tell us what your concerns are.
 
 Please say something. Even if your comments are not specific,

sure,
I think that FOR-465: Logging Error: Writing event to closed stream.
and the output Lazy mode: true  and a log4j:WARN Please initialize
the log4j system properly. look bad.

I think as well that they do not affect to the output site, but in order
to fix the first two issues, we would need to upgrade our version of
cocoon.
At the moment we are not able to do so, Carsten is aware that the
command line enviroment is not working, so we need to wait for him to
fix it and them test those changes.
But I am happy if those changes go to the next release (0.71)


Re: Fussy feelings about 0.7

2005-05-30 Thread Ferdinand Soethe

Let's not be fussy, let's act!

I can see good reasons for delaying the release and fix a few things
and I see _just as many reasons_ to roll out the improvements we have
made until now.

The only real mistake we can make is to talk about this forever.

However: If we decide to postpone, I'd suggest to address a number of
extra issues (like dir structure) that was scheduled for 0.8. And that
will mean a considerable delay.

So in short: let's do 0.7 now. I'll help by fixing the linking
samples this Wednesday.

Problems when accessing directories...

2005-05-30 Thread Harald Krottmaier

Hi!

I've noticed a problem when accessing the samples/-resource in a freshly 
seeded project: index.xml is not automatically appended, so 
forrest/cocoon (current svn-snapshot forrest_20050530043903.tar.gz) 
reports a Resource Not Found error.


Putting the redirects (currently the last entries in sitemap.xmap) to an 
earlier position, solves this problem.


HTH,
  Harald.

Hey this is great news. Thanks to Johannes and Peter for solving this
problem for us.



We'll need to decide when we'll meet.



OK, I suggest to have

- the general Forrest Meetup on Wednesday evening
  (the day of our Forrest presentation) so that people can come and
  ask more questions ...

- the views-workshop on Thursday so that people won't have to hang
  around for all three days of the conference.

With Johannes' mail saying evenings (plural) I'd gratefully take the
offered room for both evenings to not exclude people. If that is not
stretching Peter's hospitality too far?

Would 19:00 hrs be good time to start?


I'm off-line till Wednesday. Since some people need to arrange for
their travel we should decide soon. So how about taking the time to
comment until Wednesday so we can finalize the arrangements this week?


I like your proposal, if it needs to change to accommodate other people 
that is fine by me. I will be in Germany for about a week in total. Most 
of it I will not be in Stuttgart however, I will ensure I am present 
when there is anything Forrest going on.



(Below I'll include the agenda for both meetings from previous mail.)

--
Ferdinand Soethe

We General Exchange on Forrest

   an opportunity for Forrest users and developers to meet and have an
   open exchange about Forrest. If we have enough people committed to
   participating, we could/should we announce this meeting in our
   Forrest session for interested people to join us.


It is possible that we will not have many non-Forrest people taking this 
up. If this is the case I would like to use this time to do some forward 
planning and bug fixing. Will there be net access in this room?


I see this as being compatible with an open exchange with potential 
users and devs as we can ask what peoples use cases are and discuss 
whether Forrest should/would be considered for that use case. In cases 
where Forrest seems appropriate we can look at what changes need to be made.



Th Workshop Forrest Views

   with Thorsten explaining the concept and practical details of his
   Forrest-Views and plenty of opportunity to ask questions.

   My hope is that I will have a chance to understand Views after that
   which means that we will address people with a limited
   understanding of Forrest and Plug-ins.

   Duration: ~ 2 hrs?


I propose no changes at all to this part of the agenda. Views is key to 
the next release of Forrest and will, I think, finally see us moving to 
a subset of XHTML2 as the internal. This should be a purely design 
focused meeting.

[JIRA] Commented: (FOR-513) Messages from Cocoon about Lazy mode

2005-05-30 Thread issues
The following comment has been added to this issue:

 Author: David Crossley
Created: Mon, 30 May 2005 7:44 PM
   Body:
The reason that we are seeing these messages is probably because we are using a 
version of Cocoon that still contains debug statements about this facility. The 
messages can be ignored.

Lazy mode: true means that Cocoon will only load each sitemap component when 
it is actually required. This helps to speed Cocoon startup. Forrest has 
configured Lazy mode: true for the 'forrest site' and Lazy mode: false for 
the 'forrest run'.

Re: [JIRA] Created: (FOR-505) Allow the retrieval of raw html files

2005-05-30 Thread David Crossley
Ross Gardler wrote:
 [ snip ]
 
 We could add a new skinconf property to define the behaviour for *.html 
 files in xdocs we can tell people affected by this issue to make their 
 embedded content ihtml and their raw content html. i.e.
 
 !-- HTML files in the XDoc directory can  wither be passed unprocessed 
 to the client, or they can be skinned like any other content. If you set
 this setting to false, you can include skinned files by giving them the
 ihtml extension. --
 
 skinHTMLSourcestrue/skinHTMLSources
 
 The result is, setting skinHTML to false will give the same behaviour as 
 0.6 We could make this the default in order to minimise the upgrade 
 behaviour.

If we implement this workaround, then i reckon that the default
should be true. It would be easier to explain the false case
and it would be a smaller number of people affected.

However, it forces them to change their filename extensions.
That would be difficult for the main use-case, which is to include
a set of existing *.html docs as part of the site.

The thread RT: RAW content that is linked from issue FOR-505
ended with an interesting idea about using site.xml to specify
exclude/include patterns.
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=forrest-devm=110172196321097
It seems to be independent from the locationmap ideas discussed
earlier in that thread. Would that be better to implement now,
rather than the skinHTMLSources=true workaround?

Event: Apache Committers Hackathon

Event: Apache Forrest project workshop

Date: Tuesday 19:00 until whenever.

Location: The HfT room.

Topics: Views, XHTML internal format, project planning.

Audience: Anyone is welcome, but discussions will be technical
and will assume knowledge of Forrest. We will certainly answer
questions to ensure that people understand background. However
the main aim is an intensive project design session.


Event: Apache Forrest get together

Date: Wednesday 20:00 until whenever
