 cc-ing Tom Von Lahndorff. Darryl, which page does this occur on under 
 what circumstances? Which platform are you on?

Rain-check. I ran your template through `tidy`. Firefox1.5/Debian/Linux.

  rest error on structure.html
 
 Right, that should be easily fixed.
 
  1. Directory and navigation structure for the site.
 
 This needs to be generated; the toughest part of generating the layout. 
 I was hoping you'd take a look at it. :) We need to start generating 
 that based on our current structure, and instead of query (?foo=bar) 
 based links, just make them normal links. Base it on a structure of 
 nested directories, I'd say. Of course we don't have titles that way - 
 either we need a hack that lifts the title from the individual ReST 
 documents, or we need to provide the system with a list of titles for 
 the individual files somehow.

Yup,

index.html
- docs/
index.html
other-docs.html
- foo/
index.html
other-foo-docs.html
- other-home-directory-docs.html

Thats the structure we are aiming at?

I agree, titles we can lift from the rest text file.

 
  2. How does 'upload to zope.org' work?
 
 As to the ReST, I want to start maintaining that in the svn.zope.org 
 repository.

Yup. Some script could be run to synchronize the different components:

rest.svn.zope.org - zf.www.rest -- zf.tfws.org.nz -- [wget?] --
zope.org

Worst of the worse, we keep in touch and I syncronise it manually. Not a
big job.

And later, do it all with zope3   :-D  

 I'm trying to figure this out. On the near term, we may just upload all 
 of this into a plain zope on zope.org every time we make changes.

Unsure of meaning: `a plain zope`. ??

 I'm also investigating the use of Apache and just scp-ing it into an 
 Apache directory, but it appears the zope.org infrastructure needs work 
 to get there.

Keep me posted.

 Finally, eventually this should be converted into CMS content for one 
 CMS or another. That'll take a lot of hosting infrastructure work to get 
 done first, though.

Keep core/source data in directory/restfile then anything is possible.
Keep it simple. I think that any reasonable cms will be able to import
the structured data and generate a site using a given template.

Darryl

That's the generated structure. Something like:

foo.txt
bar.txt
baz
  index.txt
  qux.txt
hoi
  index.txt
dag.txt

would become:

foo.html
bar.html
baz
   index.html
   qux.html
hoi
   index.html
dag.html

Possibly ripping off the .html everywhere to turn it into:

foo
bar
baz
  index
  qux
hoi
  index
dag

not sure what these components all do, but some script that checkso ut 
the rest from svn.zope.org, runs it through your generator, and uploads 
the HTML and images up onto zope.org.

Yeah, Zope 3 or whatever. I'm trying to avoid us from geeking out on the 
tech and focusing on the immediate tasks. :)

Oh, zope.org has some odd variety of Plone, but normal Zope 2 stuff 
still works in areas, including the /foundation part. So we could simply 
upload them as page templates into the zope. I'd prefer it if it were 
something simpler, but that might be easiest given the infrastructure.

Yes, keeping it simple and in ReST for now is my goal. Eventually we may 
need some forms though: join the foundation! but we can make do with 
email addresses for now.

Thanks. This is assuming the data is already in Zope and specifically a
CMF site, though. I'm trying to avoid the whole technology equation for
the time being. I don't know how long I can keep this up. :)



Sorry for being out of the loop, as I just joined the list yesterday.
Could you elaborate on what content you're talking about?  Would it be
easier to write custom code outside of Zope to do this work than to
import some ReST content into a CMF site of sorts, i.e. Zope.org?


I just have restructured text files which need to be wrapped into a 
template with navigation, turning them into HTML pages, which then need 
to be published, somehow, on zope.org.

Martijn

Cheers Martijn,

I've put everything you gave me `as is` into my little zpt/mod_python
application and this comes out:

http://zf.tfws.org.nz/

I've only just now updated dns for the subdomain (you may need the
nameservers I use if its not showing up for you yet): 

nameserver 66.199.228.130
nameserver 206.123.113.132

All the doc pages you sent me are available as

http://zf.tfws.org.nz/  is homepage.txt
http://zf.tfws.org.nz/structure.html
http://zf.tfws.org.nz/about.html
http://zf.tfws.org.nz/documents.html
http://zf.tfws.org.nz/join.html
http://zf.tfws.org.nz/projects.html
http://zf.tfws.org.nz/membership.html

Notes:

Background logo image isn't lining up on firefox
rest error on structure.html

The code is on svn:

svn co svn://treefernwebservices.co.nz/var/svn/zopefoundation/trunk/www

Please email me privately for write access.

I'm not clear on a couple of points:

1. Directory and navigation structure for the site.
2. How does 'upload to zope.org' work?

Sincere regards,
Darryl

On NZT so I'm off to bed.

 Great! I had Michael Haubenwaller also express interest, so I'll cc him. 
 I'll be assuming you two work out who does what. It think Michael 
 wouldn't mind if you just took on the job yourself anyway - just let me 
 know.
 
 I'll be sending you a mail with the stuff I have right now. The text 
 isn't done yet, but you should get an idea. I'd be happy to indicate 
 navigation structure by directory structure for the time being, but you 
 may have better ideas.

Hi there,

I started doing some work on transforming the restructured text content

So, the task:

Write code (such as a Python script) that takes the restructured text
files (that I will send you) and wraps the layout (that I will also send
you) around it, making the menus and such work. The result should be a
bunch of HTML pages that can be served by Apache.

If you're interested, drop me a mail.

Hi Martijn,

I'm using ZopePagetTemplates with mod_python and apache to serve rest
files as html pages in a template wrapper. It would be little problem to
adapt the code to do the task as you have requested.

I'm volunteering.

Best regards,
