All the startups I was ever involved with thought I was the doc mgmt system (as in dude, you got a copy of that presentation we gave the board last september?) I only wish The path usually taken is exactly as you described above. At some point the technological savvy CxO (the one that reads Dudi Goldman and knows all the latest technological advances), whats the above system, and I have to listen to a leacture on the great advances the company would have if we only had Exchange and SharePoint If you don't find anything existing, I would consider developing it over Zope / Plone. Thats content management. Different ballgame. Not exactly. Zope is an application server for Python, is provides persistence, authentication, workflow and other such services. Plone is an web-presentation layer above it. Somewhat like JSP and EJB in the Java world. They probably provide all the services you need for a doc mgmt system, but you still need the actual product that does it. Not a bad idea for an OS project. I would check if someone's already thought of it. As a QD alternative, I've used JSPWiki (.org). Its a wiki (surprise), very easy to customize, has several options of versioning, and handles attachments. So, I would set up a Wiki page for every tracked file, and add the actual file as an attachment. The system saves all attachments with the same name as versions, with a nice version table. Locking and workflow need to be handled by convention, e.g., edit the hosting wiki page write the document status. This duplicates information. A way to somewhat reduce the information duplication is to automatically convert the saved documet to HTML and allow presenting it. But still: Should one edit the real document or the wiki document? This also hilights one of the wikis' disatvantages: $WORD_PROCESSOR and $EDITOR are generally better editing tools than $BROWSER . It's nice to have the ability to work from everywhere on the document, but it is nicer to have good editing abilities, auto-save, speller, etc. -- Tzafrir Cohen +---+ http://www.technion.ac.il/~tzafrir/ |vim is a mutt's best friend| mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] +---+ = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Fwd: Linux 2.6.0
Haven't seen this mentioned here yet, so, without further ado... - Forwarded message from Linus Torvalds [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Date: Wed, 17 Dec 2003 20:14:06 -0800 (PST) From: Linus Torvalds [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Kernel Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Linux 2.6.0 The beaver is out of detox - Anon This should not be a big surprise to anybody on the list any more, since we've been building up to it for a long time now, and for the last few weeks I haven't accepted any patches except for what amounts to fairly obvious one-liners. Anyway, 2.6.0 is out there now, and the patch from -test11 is a swelte 11kB in size. It's not the totally empty patch I was hoping for, but judging by the bugs I worked on personally, things are looking pretty good. To give you an example, one of the nastier bugs that we chased for the last five weeks was a bug that could only be reproduced reliably on a 16- or 32-way system, and only when the system had flaky disks. Putting in known-good disks made the problem disappear. Similarly, compiling the kernel with another compiler made the problem disappear. It turned out to be a really subtle bug wrt SMP ordering and stack allocation, and lots of thanks to Ram Pai for gathering all the information that eventually led to it being fixed. The fix was a one-liner and a big comment - but my point is that the quality of bugs has been pretty high lately, and we feel that we're in pretty good shape. Andrew has written up some caveats and pointers to information about 2.4.x vs 2.6.x changes, and I'll let him post that. Some known issues were not considered to be release-critical and a number of them have pending fixes in the -mm queue. Generally they just didn't have the kind of verification yet where I was willing to take them in order to make sure a fair 2.6.0 release. NOTE! I'll continue to keep track of the 2.6 BK tree until we're closer to the time when we literally split it for 2.7.x, because both Andrew and I are pretty comfortable with our respective toolchains. But Andrew is the stable tree maintainer, so everything should be approved by him at this point. Think of the -mm tree as the staging area, and mine as a release tree. We'll work together, but Andrew is boss. (BK merging will have to go through some approval format, we'll see how that works out exactly).
