Hi all, There are some things that IMO need to be done in order to get this whole Webical thing going again: 1. Development time: well, that's taken care of with our new intern Mattijs :) 2. Do a (non-AJAX) webical-0.2 stable release ASAP. This release should be dead-easy to install (for anyone with a little MySQL and Tomcat experience). By removing the 'Enable ajax (expirimental)'-link we can prevent people from thinking the app sucks ... everyone clicks that link :( The AJAX part sucks - that's true - but the accessible version really works! For Func. this will be a dog food release (webical.func.nl anyone?) 3. Spread the webical-0.2-stable-word everywhere and 'tease' with the coming AJAX/plugin version 4. Do a webical-0.3 AJAX version somewhere in the next 2-3 months 5. Do a first (Weather? OpenProjectServices? Rememberthemilk?) plugin release a month after that What do you think?

Good idea. Hiding the link could be as simple as creating a new maven profile (just like the one for the demo site) with an different html file for the basepage where the link is hidden. Stating that the ajax-part suck goes a bit far by the way :) 3. Spread the webical-0.2-stable-word everywhere and 'tease' with the > coming AJAX/plugin version > > 4. Do a webical-0.3 AJAX version somewhere in the next 2-3 months Would this be the complete ajax version or do we want an intermediate release as well? 5. Do a first (Weather? OpenProjectServices? Rememberthemilk?) plugin > release a month after that Cool. Another option would be a nice google maps integration. There has been some renewed activity in the gmap2 wicket-stuff project<https://wicket-stuff.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/wicket-stuff/trunk/wicket-contrib-gmap2/>that could be interesting..

Hi all, Well, after a lot of testing today, i finished packaging the release 0.2 :) The package contains the new Webical style and i wrote a readme with install instructions. After some dog food eating (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eating_one%27s_own_dog_food, a lesson from Zoran :) ) and of course some serious final testing, i will hopefully be releasing it tomorrow. The people who follow the wiki may have noticed i added a fifth increment to the project (http://www.webical.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/Developers#Increment_V). I hope to start the first Ajax POC tomorrow, if school doesn't pull me away from coding with their paperwork :( cheers, Mattijs Zoran Kovacevic wrote: >> file for the basepage where the link is hidden.

I have just tested your 0.2 preview and it is great. I am amazed with the new template, had not seen it before! Enough styling to be done, but very nice for a 0.2 release. Go go go!

I still have some remarks though :) 1. Bootstrap stuff: after a restart the database is reset to its original state (all added calendars and settings are gone). This should be fixed before 0.2 release. - how about adding a bootstrap SQL that the installer (person) needs to run? 2. The /app/configuration URL is protected by admin:admin u:p. - how about telling the installer to change those default values? 3. Split the README authentication section in: - MySQL container managed - LDAP container managed (only refer to the Webical wiki, since this probably won't be the most used config. please ask Thijs to place his notes there) 4. Split up the README database section in: - webical db config, with a webical-bootstrap.sql - if applicable: webical auth config, with a webical-auth.sql (by default use the same database as webical db. 5. Are the README, webical.xml, and *.sql in subversion? if not, please put them there. 6. The default u/p for accessing (webical:webical) the database are not mentioned in te README. Please mention what u/p you assume, and what rights to the database it should have. 7. You forgot to mention to put the webical.war in tomcat/webapps ;) Do you think we should ship with default u/p/dbname values or should everything be explicitly filled out? I have attached the files from the 0.2 RC (excluding webical.war since it is too big) for reference for others. Perhaps you can dump the next RC on some (tmp) webspace for download for others to preview/test? Best, Zoran Zoran Kovacevic wrote: > I have just tested your 0.2 preview and it is great.

With the defaults, the application can be deployed without editing any files. The readme mentions that it is possible to edit the u/p values.

It's indeed simpler for first-time usage, but this does pose a nice security hole. You'll see that people are not inclined to changed the defaults after everything is setup and this leaves a lot of webical instances (assuming interest will pick up :)) with a default user/password... cheers, > > mattijs > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft > Defy all challenges.

Btw. Is there a demo deploy planned for today? I would love to see Sjoerds design and the lastminute enhancements I made to come online.
