All, I had previously indicated that I'd be doing all the items required for beta. Well, I don't think it will happen for a while, so feel free to pick any issue you want to work on. Exceptions being the two Naill is working on and, for myself, the admin commands for setting ents. I'm pretty busy at work, and I expect that I'll be spending time on AW documentation as well. Bill |

Arun, Welcome! I myself am working for Sun Microsystems in Bangalore, so I guess we're close. Perhaps we can get together at a FOSS meet or something. As you have expressed interest in the agile wiki project, I would encourage you (and everyone!) to create an accout on agilewiki.org. When you register, a cabinet is created where you can experiment with the program. You'll also find some documentation there, though I've only just started on documentation. (I'll note that until you are an experienced user, it may be difficult to test any contributions that you may submit.) Also, I'd still like to know your user name on java.net. (Please create one unless you have already done so.)

If you look in the FileLayouts cabinet at agilewiki.org, you will find that the documentation for the log files has been completed. Not exactly thrilling stuff, but not too hard to understand, methinks. And it gives you some of the background you need to work on utilities. Might also be helpful in debugging, mm? Bill |

LSec table display project requires only a change to org.agilewiki.ark.rolons.TableRolon, though we may also end up doing some refactoring to org.agilewiki.ark.rolons.Rolon as well. In both classes, we want to study the docEvent method. In TableRolon, this method simply creates a "Table" event--all the display logic is then handled by the clients. In contrast, the docEvent method in Rolon creates a "Doc" event containing html. The Rolon method also identifies WikiWords, converting them to web links, as well as handling brace notation. My suggestion is to move most of the code in Rolon.docEvent into a new methon in Rolon, and have the Rolon.docEvent fetch the document and pass it to the new method. Then TableRolon.docEvent can create the html from the document and simply call the new method in Rolon to handle all the WikiWord and brace notation processing. Does this sound reasonable to you? I really don't want the code in Rolon.docEvent duplicated, as we may want to add some features later. (I fear that I've now over-spec'd this project. But then, we've only just started working together.) Bill . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Hi Bill, I would like to work on these open issues: GUI: SwingFieldLength - i presume that you are talking about database field lengths here? - ie when the gui needs a field length it should ignore the lengths of recieved field lengths? Doc - Table LSecs should be displayed using AwServer-generated HTML, allowing for clickable links within cells. Niall |

Niall, Such a nice email for first thing in the morning! (It is 5:30AM in India as I read this.) I feel like it is Christmas and I just saw a whole pile of presents under the tree. :-) Lets have two threads on this, one for each assignment. And of course I'm responding to the simpler one first, swing field length. I'll start by confirming your understanding. Lets start by looking at the second half of org.agilewiki.framework.Form. This is where we request field input. Look at three methods, password, passwordChallenge and editText. These are the 3 methods which request field input. And they pass a size attribute giving a suggested field width. Note that this is not a max field length, only a suggestion to the display. Note also that this is a character count, not a size in pixels. So you will need to use a fudge factor (times 10 or something like that) to get a reasonable field length. Now if we look at the swing client, there are two modules that need updating: org.agilewiki.swingclient.common.EditText and org.agilewiki.swingclient.common.Password. Note that these two modules process the event objects produced by the three methods mentioned above. Now the servlet code already uses variable length field entry. The idea behind this project is partly to keep the servlet and swing programs similer in feel for the user and partly to improve the look of the swing client. Bill . . . . .. . . . . . . . . . . .

AW at agilewiki.org went down early this afternoon... I'll bring it up when I get home. Obviously the db needs more shaking down. As I want to add a lot more documentation, this will happen. Its just going to take longer than I like. :-( Now when it IS up, I'd appreciate it if you could review the open issues, find something you would like to work on and then tell me what you need to know to work on it. I know that this is hard to do, given an almost complete lack of documentation. Hopefully it will get easier as we go along. But if you are not seeing documentation in areas of interest to you, please speak up! I can always give it priority. Bill |

Firstly, I'd like to note that the url http://agilewiki.org is finally working just great. Nuitari, the ISP for the site, has been very helpful. Next, I'd like to point out the growing amount of content at agilewiki.org. If you go to http://agilewiki.org/aw3/AwServlet you will see several new cabinets, including * UserGuide <http://agilewiki.org/aw3/AwServlet?cmd=rid%208dfe7005e3905bb867174da3c329877c> * InstallingAwServer <http://agilewiki.org/aw3/AwServlet?cmd=rid%202aaa37ab58448872337cbe84b72a56eb> * DeveloperGuide <http://agilewiki.org/aw3/AwServlet?cmd=rid%202542c23a7126cf96d0a6c5a05c0c5291> * Rolonics <http://agilewiki.org/aw3/AwServlet?cmd=rid%2093df68eb1779b74f4bf239f69b490a49> * OpenIssues <http://agilewiki.org/aw3/AwServlet?cmd=rid%20854fe10d9393bb3b81412177d3d11e20>. This is a place to keep an eye on. Note that the OpenIssues Cabinet now covers a great deal, though not in much depth. I've been thinking that file formats is probably an important enough (and small enough) that it is worth working on next. (I'll keep you all posted on developments.) All in all, this was a very successful weekend. With release alpha28-1a, the database is finally starting to stabalize. So AgileWiki3 has finally become self hosting. I encourage everyone to register at the agilewiki.org site! Remember, it is hard to understand what we're doing if you're not a user. And as we make AgileWiki3 more agile, this site should become much more fun to work with. Bill |

Niall, Anything that stores data these days can be called a database. There are two reasons why they are slow: 1. Since they are hard to write and general purpose, they are run as a separate process. This way you can have multiple applications sharing the same data. But running as a separate process, they are slower than if they were integrated into the application. 2. The best technology to date has been RDBMS and OODBMS. But they are not even a reasonable fit for most applications. So a lot of effort goes into trying to make databases faster, including amazing efforts by administrators to tune each database installation. But not being a good fit to start with, they remain hard to use and result in slow applications. This is a failure of theory. Now with rolonics, we have a good theory of applications. And we can put the application server in the same process with the rolonic database. That makes it faster. But a rolonic database is also a very very good fit for applications. So, even while the database may be only so fast, the applications themselves are blazing fast--a rolonic database is always exactly what is needed for an application. OK, not all of this is proven in practice yet. We'll get there. Also, rolonic applications are a bit different from regular applications--they are more focused on classifiers and journals and less ledger centric. And that makes them faster--they are programmed more correctly--as well as more natural for users. Hmm. Some of this actually has been proven in practice, though not by me. Norm has been working on smaller applications of Rolonics and has had some very interesting successes, though the work has been propriatary. You were wondering perhaps, what kept Norm so busy? :-) Bill Niall Loughnane wrote: > Hi Bill, > > Apologies, > > Although the link did not link to the open issues i did not see how > the enhancments could be made to AgileWiki, this was the first the > first time that i saw the link to AgileWike, > > you are correct that this is all alternatives to ejb, ejb is after all > a package that would connect an external jar to ejb just to connect to > database connections etc? what a pain databases are? couldnt there be > something better than databases ie they are slow they are there just > too store data, cant be there something that has never been developed > yet, something that will make things better, databases are after all a > after all a run down thing, they come come corrupt? why? there is > oracle and sql server they come corrupt? all they do is store data and > is there only job, besides security etc? there should be something > different that agilewiki should be based on that the normal database > that agilewiki is based on? our ancestors didnt, ie Sir Bill Gate or > Sir Allen? > |

Niall, There was previously a partial list of issues in the issue tracker on the java.net site. I've also from time to time indicated areas that needed work. This weekend finally I wrote the comprehensive list of things to be done, and only just finished it. I thought that it would be well worth the effort. I don't want to be the bottleneck on this project, though it is unavoidable for now. But with AgileWiki3 finally working well enough to be self-hosting, my main focus for a while will be on documentation, and especially programmer documentation. This will finally open up the project to other developers to contribute. As I progress, I do hope that you and others will continue to help me by contributing what you can, especially with questions about things that need clarifying. My long-range goal is to see hundreds, no, thousands of developers building on what we have done together. But that is a goal that can not be reached without your help. Norm has been working on Rolonics for 20 years, while I have only spent the last 6 on prototypes for the AgileWiki. So yes, there's some catching up to do. But there is pleanty of room in the core development team. And I will do my best to make it possible for anyone who has the interest to participate. Also, the so-called comprehensive list of open issues isn't really comprehensive. I left out change notifications for one. And it really only covers what's been prototyped. There are still other areas of Rolonic theory that I have not yet had a chance to apply, one of particular interest being agent theory. And AgileWiki3 is likely not the be the all and end all. I expect there will be an AgileWiki 4 in a couple of years, and more beyond that. This has become my life's work. And like other projects, JBoss for example, I expect there will be a financial side of AgileWiki3. But for that we need to build a team of developers interested in providing support. It will take time and effort on all our parts. But we have something unique in the industry--a comprehensive theory on which to base our work. Contrast that to other, ad hoc efforts (like EJB, SOA, Portlets), which may be the best efforts to date, but which are only probing the greater dark. Truely the opportunity is ours to loose.

Hi Bill, Apologies, Although the link did not link to the open issues i did not see how the enhancments could be made to AgileWiki, this was the first the first time that i saw the link to AgileWike, you are correct that this is all alternatives to ejb, ejb is after all a package that would connect an external jar to ejb just to connect to database connections etc? what a pain databases are? couldnt there be something better than databases ie they are slow they are there just too store data, cant be there something that has never been developed yet, something that will make things better, databases are after all a after all a run down thing, they come come corrupt? why? there is oracle and sql server they come corrupt? all they do is store data and is there only job, besides security etc? there should be something different that agilewiki should be based on that the normal database that agilewiki is based on? our ancestors didnt, ie Sir Bill Gate or Sir Allen?

Alpha28 is released and can now be accessed at http://agilewiki.org/aw3/index.html So its time to start using it and see what breaks. Already I've noticed a caching problem when editing tables. Oh well. I'm sure there will be other things. (There's also a broken page at http://agilewiki.org/index.html --wierdness.) Bill |
