I'm using SVK to maintain my local Typo, and keep track of the Typo trunk, my patches for Typo that I send off to Trac for inclusion, and my local changes that aren't intended for submission. It's working pretty well so far. Here are the two blog entries that I wrote on the topic: http://scottstuff.net/blog/articles/2005/07/07/distributed- development-with-svk http://scottstuff.net/blog/articles/2005/07/08/checking-everything- into-svk Scott From markc at renta.net Wed Jul 13 02:29:09 2005 From: markc at renta.net (Mark Constable) Date: Wed Jul 13 02:24:09 2005 Subject: [typo] Keeping Typo's codebase separate from site-specific customisations In-Reply-To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> References: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> On Wednesday 13 July 2005 14:49, Tim Lucas wrote: > Just thought Duane's recent post might have some relevance to Typo: > http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.ruby.rails/14513 That was a timely post, thank you! I'm a ruby/rails/typo newbie and I cannot deploy typo until I come up with a true multihosting solution for rails/typo.. which is proving to be difficult but probably because of my lack of understanding of how rails really works. FWIW, as a comparison, we use Drupal as a CMS that is available to our 4000 ISP/vhost clients off a single copy of the 1.8Mb Drupal codebase. I only have to change 2 lines in the PHP include files to pull the main config file from the users homedir for their MySQL perms and we have 1000s of separate Drupal sites running in full PHP safe-mode. We provide phpBB2 and Gallery in a similar manner but now changing it so that Drupal is _the_ system with a photo gallery module included instead. I can't deploy rails/typo for real until I emulate this kind of setup. > Might be a good way to keep Typo core separate from from site-specific > customisations... though it would quickly become unmaintainable if > people are overriding things willy-nilly.

Please keep in mind a true multihosting solution! --markc From jluster at jluster.org Wed Jul 13 02:39:52 2005 From: jluster at jluster.org (Jonas M Luster) Date: Wed Jul 13 02:35:11 2005 Subject: [typo] Keeping Typo's codebase separate from site-specific customisations In-Reply-To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> References: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > FWIW, as a comparison, we use Drupal as a CMS that is available to our > 4000 ISP/vhost clients off a single copy of the 1.8Mb Drupal codebase. > > I can't deploy rails/typo for real until I emulate this kind of setup. As someone who codes on Drupal stuff and uses Typo for his weblog, I should point out the obvious differences between a weblogging system and a CMS with a working, albeit limited, weblog entry module included. Drupal used to be rather monolithic as well, pre 'settings/' directory (4.6, respective CVS trunk releases), but had been written from the get-go with some multi-hosting in mind. All in all, I think it's unfair to both Typo and Drupal to attempt to compare the two :) jonas From markc at renta.net Wed Jul 13 03:07:52 2005 From: markc at renta.net (Mark Constable) Date: Wed Jul 13 03:02:51 2005 Subject: [typo] Keeping Typo's codebase separate from site-specific customisations In-Reply-To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> References: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> On Wednesday 13 July 2005 16:39, Jonas M Luster wrote: > > FWIW, as a comparison, we use Drupal as a CMS that is available to our > > 4000 ISP/vhost clients off a single copy of the 1.8Mb Drupal codebase. > > > > I can't deploy rails/typo for real until I emulate this kind of setup. > > As someone who codes on Drupal stuff and uses Typo for his weblog, I > should point out the obvious differences between a weblogging system > and a CMS with a working, albeit limited, weblog entry module > included.

All in > all, I think it's unfair to both Typo and Drupal to attempt to > compare the two :) I did say "rails/typo" as typo is fully dependant on the rails framework, of course, so how typo could be extended into a full multihosting equivalent would largely depend on how the rails framework is tweaked. And I think it would be even fairer to say Drupal evolved into a much better multihosting app because of demand. Earlier versions were NOT multihosting friendly at all. I suspect rails and typo will come under the same requirement (hey, I'm one who wants it) so all I am suggesting as typo devel moves forward is to keep full multihosting in mind. I am hugely encouraged by the appearence of this thread on this list. --markc From robin-lists at robinbowes.com Tue Jul 19 08:00:52 2005 From: robin-lists at robinbowes.com (Robin Bowes) Date: Tue Jul 19 07:55:20 2005 Subject: [typo] typo installed on apache2 with fastcgi Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hi, Just to let you know that I've just installed typo (from SVN) on my Fedora Core 4 box with apache2 and using fastcgi.
