an overview of the current documentation resources we have for sf-active.
SF-ACTIVE DOCUMENTATION OVERVIEW
I OFFICIAL DOCUMENTATION
- The official documentation is in cvs. It's nightly updated into http://sfactive.indymedia.org/docs/
- The layout is good.
- Most important: it seems to have about any section we'll actually need.
- Disadvantage: quite some sections are empty. quite some other things are outdated.
- URL: http://sfactive.indymedia.org/docs/
II BLICERO'S MANUAL
- It's quite extensive. There are sections about users, admin, tech and direct participation tools.
- Important: it's allready translated, at least into English (mostly) and dutch. this is important because I think we need the offical docu in all the languages the software is translated to.
- I translated it, so I know what's in it. I find it actually quite good.
- Disadvantage: people complain the admin section is too complicated to learn it with the manual only.
- URL'S:
Italian - English - Dutch
III TWIKI SOURCES
a) ender.indymedia.org
- There's an sf-active section on ender.indymedia.org
- I didn't read it all, but there's at least info on how the software works (probably outdated) and info on how to migrate from active
- URL: http://ender.indymedia.org/twiki/bin/view/Tech/SFActive
b) docs.indymedia.org
- there are some pages in the devel section.
- there are some things in italy twiki
- URL's
http://docs.indymedia.org/view/Devel/ActiveSf - http://docs.indymedia.org/view/Local/ItalyImcTutorial
IV MIGRATION SCRIPTS DOCUMENTATION
a) sfactivate.pl
- the canadian imc's wrote a tool to convert an active webcast table to an sf-active webcast table.
- there are knownbugs, but blicero should have a better version. there's a melbourne patch too.
- they have some docu on it.
URL: http://ender.indymedia.org/twiki/bin/view/Tech/SFActiveSlurp
b) features.cgi conversion
