Hello,
is the naviserver then aolserver + extensions? And what are the main
features added to it? We are using OpenACS
and I was wondering if it would make sense to use the naviserver
instead.
Naviserver is a AOLserver 4.0 + many (internal) changes to accomodate
our (still) small community needs. At this moment there is no
compatibility statement we can make. I'm talking to some OACS developers
and users so we can get the naviserver replace aolserver for that
application
but this is still in the flux. You can surely expect something out of that
effort.
Where can I learn more about the problems how the aolserver project
is managed?
This is historical and requires you to read tons of aolserver listserv
traffic since last 2 years. The most visible problem is a relatively
fierce opposition to server code changes initiated from the community.
Therefore, we (a bunch of long-time aolserver users) decided to take
our own path.
For the time being, you can register yourself for the navidevel list
on source-forge and you'll get first-line update of where we are now and
where we're heading to on the short term. At the moment we have pretty
stable, heavily modified aolserver-4.0-based code which is used in
mission-critical applications (at least ours is one, AFAIK). We'd need
to tweak a thing here/there code-wise but it is good as it is now.
The major task ahead (which gets pushed in future mostly due to my lack
of time) is to get a decent set of docs including all C and Tcl API
plus visible changes between Navi and AOL servers. I hope to finally get
myself concentrated on that task, as it is crucial for almost everybody.
Cheers
Zoran
