Hi all, Following PyWeb-3 I realized I have to focus Polinax and to get a site up ASAP. So starting this weekend I spent most of my time coding a site with the aim of helping the undecided voters find information and better understand their options. The site - http://www.tzafim.org - is using the trunk version of Django & Pinax and postgres 8.3. Hosting is provided by slicehost 256 - running Ubuntu. I'm using Apache2 and mod_wsgi for the first time which was very easy to set up. I had some issues with the translation utilities on my dev OSX, but after downloading macports I got everything up and running. There are a few bugs - e.g. some strings don't translate and some pages do not use the overall site design. While I'm working on these bugs, I also code the Answers application. The current version includes the questions app which allows users to post questions and vote for the questions they like. The answers application will let candidates register their feed's url and write answers to questions in their blog. The candidates will have to copy the question's text to their post, so that the answers robot can scan their posts and associate answers to the questions. Once I have the bot, I'll build a page for each question where voters can read all the answers and vote for them. I need your help - posting your questions to the site, voting, testing and sending ideas and patches (if anyone can write the bot today/ tomorrow please let me know). The source is online at http://github.com/daonb/polinax/tree/il-elections, but it's not full - because of git shortcomings you have to link 'apps/external_apps' to your copy of the Pinax repository.
