I've created a template file for www-client/planet-20040808 in hope of pushing
forward the "Planet Gentoo" idea - I think this a good idea because it is one
step we can take to reduce the gap between the user and developer communities.
The design is nothing new, I just tried to copy the www.gentoo.org style.
Hopefully this is acceptable, because I suck at designing things :P
I'll post my work here shortly.
Only looked at the screenshot, but this lot looks very useful. Thanks Daniel
;-)
Sample install instructions:
1. emerge planet
2. cp -R /usr/lib/planet ~/planet
3. cd ~/planet
4. download and extract output.tar.bz2 from here
5. mkdir gentoo
6. download config.ini and index.html.tmpl into gentoo/
7. python planet.py gentoo/config.ini
Created an attachment (id=42704) [details]
index.html.tmpl v2
New template file, which uses the new username config entries to provide links
to the users buglist, commit stats, and dev.gentoo.org homepage. Also some
minor tweaks to the backing HTML.
Devrel: do you have any problems with the proposed addition to the dev handbook
for planet gentoo? If so let us know! (I can't remember if we got a go ahead
from you on that part)
Handbook patch looks fine. Want me to commit it in?
Not until we get the site up and running and we've tested it a little. We'll
probably want to send an email to -core when we're ready so that *all* devs
know about the policy on it.
+If you have a blog elsewhere, then it needs to be able to provide an XML
+content feed. If you blog into categories, we need to be able to get an XML
+feed which covers your "Gentoo" category but no others. This is probably a
+non-issue, as almost all blogs provide standardised feeds like this.
This is the one that's going to cause problems with Robin, me and anyone else who uses LiveJournal (which is a lot of people). Thus the suggestion of somehow filtering by topic.
Something I was talking to lance earlier about was putting a footer at the
bottom of the template.."The views expressed here are of the invidivual dev,
and not Gentoo as a whole....blah blah"
Already had that planned, but forgot I had written the newer Planet template.
It's now done on both sites.
