It just goes to show you, no itch is an island. If you see that it needs to be done, chances are someone somewhere is already working on it. Upsides without doing a deeper review: * Resolves most of the concerns from earlier by giving everyone what they want to work with, and storing it all in XML in a CVS. * It appears the developer does work using Fedora: http://www.soft.inima.al/book/INSTALL Perhaps s/he is interested in maintaining a package for Extras? Or otherwise integrating with the Fedora Project? Downsides I see so far: * New piece of infrastructure required? I don't know if we can get this hosted on fedora.redhat.com, which is where it _should_ be. That requires someone to install, configure, and admin. * Can it use our existing CVS seamlessly? * Can we hack it effectively? It already uses xsltproc, so we're most of the way there, right? * Do all the components come as packages? I reckon this will be a requirement of the host system administrator. swish-e viewcvs phpwebapp docbookwiki php = 4.3.2 (for some scripts) Anyone with time and know how to: A) Install the software. B) Document the installation (at least notes). C) Provide a report back to us on ease of installation and any other software details worth mentioning? I'm totally interested, and also totally don't have time to do it now. Also, all my lab machines are busy. :/ Very promising! - Karsten -- Karsten Wade, RHCE * Sr. Tech Writer * http://people.redhat.com/kwade/ gpg fingerprint: 2680 DBFD D968 3141 0115 5F1B D992 0E06 AD0E 0C41 Red Hat SELinux Guide http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-4-Manual/selinux-guide/
