From AMI@Work Communities Wiki

If everything's broken, here's what it should look like.

  • MediaWiki: prepare new installation procedure + monolithic patch & document that on the wiki
  • MediaWiki: modifiable dates in DPL?
  • MediaWiki: statistics report via XML dump
  • BSCW: if possible, make BSCW work with non-public mnemonic paths without username ("bscw.cgi/:/Workspace")
  • Drupal: a better version of ami auth module
  • Drupal: link to wiki login form instead of login box

Contents


[edit] Wiki

  • Templates
  • Discussion points:
    • clickable icons contrary to images
    • user list with full name (first name, last name), in tools menu (who's who) with link to their user page
    • Is it possible to create a category "concept" in order to identify the concepts description pages? associate the category "concept" with the category "community" in order to link concepts with communities?
    • what about the category "meta-concept" like for "research topic" which is a meta-concept linking concept to the research areas by communities?
    • is it possible to have "myConcepts" which would be grouping all new concept wiki pages one has created. Should concept wiki pages be identified with a special category such as "concept category"? and why not to have "concepts" as an entry of the community tools menu that would give a list of created concepts? then I can put there some metrics about how many concepts are created in a certain period of time, how many members are contributing to the definition of new concepts, how many collaboration group are created to define/develop new concepts.
    • wiki pages for private group, i.e. only the group members can access those pages
