Excellent. There are two things happening to OFL at the moment, and they are interdependent. - The site is migrating, with the functionality extensions over the default, from v4 to v5. That's a task for people who actually know how cchost works. - Markedly different UX and a very different editorial drift are being introduced with the next version of the site. That's a task for me in the first instance. This is not entirely an exercise in upgrading a cchost install, but I would be delighted for that to happen before my work gets too far advanced. Not sure whether this is a good point to stop cross-posting to cctools-cchost so I will.

If you post up what you have done publicly somewhere, then I can look at as well... I want to do the move to ccHost 5 and see where we are at...victor showed me how before, so I just need to do a test of...and doing OFLB might be much easier before doing OCAL...

(A few path and variables had to be adjusted against v5 trunk). IIRC there were other changes in the rest of the site: some xml files (like guidelines.xml) were also modified to turn ccHost from a music-oriented site to a fonts-oriented site. Could someone with access to the OFLB server please provide a dump of the current db (and a tarball of the vhost) so we can look at the configuration?

AFAIK the only significant delta between ccHost 4 release and OFLB's ccHost is that the OFL license plugin was added, and the text in the theme was changed to be about fonts instead of music.
