Milestone I - "Get Started"

First goal for the ODF@WWW effort must be, to "release" something which has been properly checked-in and which has some kind of feature set, which seems to be usable. It is not yet the goal to conquer the world ;-) but just to get the basics in place.

Organization

Become an Incubator Project

For the ODF@WWW to get any official status, it needs to become a so called "accepted project". Projects on OOo are things as Uno or the Writer. Before any project can become an accepted project it needs to be an "incubator project", basically proven it's viability etc. Even incubator projects need to be discussed first on the OOo lists, see http://www.openoffice.org/about_us/protocols_proposing.html for how-to creating an incubator project.

This task is done, ODF@WWW by now is an official incubator project hosted at

http://odf-at-www.openoffice.org

You may want to look at my respective Blog posting for some details.

Set up an ODF Wiki

Set up an ODF Wiki to used for the Project itself, e.g. something as

 http://odf-at-www.services.openoffice.org

This basically is to "eat your own dog food". To do the full step, the documentation then also needs to be moved from the OOo Wiki into the ODF Wiki.

Check-In the Prototype

Download prototype from Mediacast and check it in into the project repository.

Write a Pack Script

Write a script to "package" the ODF Wiki.

Features

Support Mac OS X Clients

Support for Mac OS X Clients.

User Authentication

Users need to login to be able to save documents. Apache.org has some documentation on this. One may either use HTTP Basic authentication or HTTP Digest authentication. See http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_dav.html.

Snap Shooting

As document saving does not seem to be reliable in all cases, define a snap shooting mechanism backing up all stored documents every once a while.

Documentation

Update the provided documentation:

  • Add links to latest Blog posting.
  • Add links to the project page.
  • Review documentation.
