> what would the wages be? it's open source - there are no wages! If someone wants it in their language they translate it. They can then decide to gift those translations back to the community. I haven't heard of an open source project paying for contributions. It's also the case that the contributor does the maintenance. Of course, bodington.org identifying a target audience that could dramatically increase it's takeup and allocating funds for translations to target that market is another matter entirely. So the question is, will Bod in Thai make a difference to usage commensurate with financial outlay?

As I mentioned in an earlier post the current WebLearn builds have some changes to the way configuration is done and I thought I should outline them: SetupServlet no longer blats values with defaults. ================================================== It is currently the case that if you configure Bodington (through SetupServlet) then edit bodington.properties to change some values that can't be configured through SetupServlet the next time you run SetupServlet these values will get overritten. I have changed SetupServlet so that it only sets defulat values in the configuration file that don't have an existing value. Splitting of bodington.properties. ================================== At the moment the bodington.properties file is the only place for configuration information. This causes problems in that at the moment SetupServlet sets default values in the main properties file and then when we come to an upgrade we can't easily tell if it is safe to change them. In WebLearn HEAD I have configuration commit from 3 places: - bodington-default.properties: This file contains the defaults that SetupServlet used to set. It is wrapped up into the bodserver.jar and shouldn't be edited on any installs. - context properties: I have code in the ContextListener the puts any parameters found in the context as Bodington properties. This allows automatic setup of a bodington install by using deploy time context parameters (context.xml in Tomcat world). - bodington.properties: This is the normaly bodington properties file that contains only the configuration information set by the user. These three property sources are chained with the first value being returned and the parent being consulted only if these isn't a value set: bodington.properties -> context properties -> bodington-defaults Existing bodington.properties files should continue to work but new ones will only contain properties the user has configured. This is not seen as a good long term solution but goes some way to making configuration easier to manage. Any comments about me pushing these changes over to Bodington HEAD? The reaons for this is that they are related to the Quickstart WAR. -- +--Matthew Buckett-----------------------------------------+ | VLE Developer, Learning Technologies Group | | Tel: +44 (0) 1865 283660 http://www.oucs.ox.ac.uk/ | +------------Computing Services, University of Oxford------+ |

A couple of years ago I worked on the 9th floor of the tower block that straddles Edgeware Road tube station. I don't know what one does if there's a bomb scare in the tube station - leave everyone in a tower block that could collapse from the blast, or get them out into the street, possibly nearer any falling glass? My wife would pretty much have been on the train at Aldgate coming into work. We're both a little... shaken, I guess.

IMSMD v1.1 I *think*.

The entertaining thing here is that the content package import extracts the metadata from the content package and sets that as the metadata for the imported resource. If that's in an odd format, Bod may fail completely to update its own metadata. LOM probably counts as an odd format, at present! Let's see... <rummage> BuildingSessionImpl::importMetadata presupposes a top-level metadata element named "record" in imported metadata, and will fail if that is not found (BuildingSessionImpl:1450). BuildingSessionImpl::updateBasicMetadata *also* presupposes a top-level metadata element named "record" in imported metadata, and will fail if that is not found (BuildingSessionImpl:1763). That's called from createconfirm in Facility, which would seem pretty key to a running Bodington! - Peter |
