I will defer to the feedback from others, but while your waiting, I'll tell
you the 2 options we found on our Intranet.
Option-1: Add the url to JetspeedResources.properties.
For example, to add our corporate Schedule, we added:
content.feeds.escheduling.url=http://development.velosmed.com/eschedule1.2/r
sseventstodayrequest.asp
content.feeds.escheduling.stylesheet.url=/content/xsl/jpc-full.xsl
content.feeds.escheduling.title=eScheduling
content.feeds.escheduling.description=Velos eScheduling
The disadvantage here is - at least in my installation - the cache is
updated once as Jetspeed is launched.
Option-2 (the one we chose):
As long as your content is in RSS-format, get a static copy of the xmltree
file, and add a node for your content. (1)If you look in your Cache folder,
you will find a file called http_www.xmltree.com_export_ocs.cfm (or
something similar). Move this to a static folder on your system (such as the
folder where you keep JetspeedResources.properties) and (3) rename it to
JetspeedContent.ocs. (3) Add a <rdf:description> node which describes the
link to your content. (4)Finally, modify your JetspeedResources.properties
to use this file instead of the on at xmltree.org:
contentfeeds.feed.xmltree.description=XML Tree OCS Feed
contentfeeds.feed.xmltree.url=file:///c:/Jetspeed/conf/JetspeedSources.cfm
Now your content will be maintained by the Jetspeed Daemon. The disadvantage
is that as xmltree.org is updated with new and discontinued sources, you
will not be. (Since we are an Intranet, we wanted to pick and choose the
available content for our employees for now).
Option-4: If your content is available to the public, simply go to
XMLTree.org and add your url.
Option-5: In a recent post, Kevin suggested you create your own Daemon to
maintain your own content. Without documentation (and limited technical
understaning of the nuts-and-bolts of Jetspeed, I could not persue this
currently.)
