clarification on CVS access control for new projects
by Derek Wright 23 May '06

23 May '06

i've gotten quite a few questions about 1 detail of the new CVS access control stuff: what about directories in /contributions/ modules/ that don't yet have projects associated with them? originally (i.e for about 24 hours), all commits/tags were prevented in such directories (under the influence of chx, i err'ed on the side of the tightest restrictions). ;) however, killes asked me to change this, and that happened yesterday morning. so, now all the commit access control stuff is only in place for directories that are associated with a published project node. this means that once someone has a cvs account, they can create new directories in the repository and commit their code. once it's there, they're free to create a project node that points to their new directory and wait for that to be published and approved. however, tagging *is* restricted to published projects. so, the workflow for adding a new project is: 0) contrib author applies for CVS account (as always) once approved... 1) contrib authors add their code to an available directory in CVS 2) author submits a project node pointing to their directory 3) site admin reviews the node, decides if it's a fork/duplicate, or worthy assuming it's good... 4) site admin publishes the node (this should be the _only_ way a project node gets published, but it's not. see http://drupal.org/node/64100) 5) now author has ability to branch/tag their code 6) based on branches/tags, project module creates appropriate tarballs (also see http://drupal.org/node/58066) does that make sense? anyone got any suggestions for improvement? anyone have an opinion where this should be documented? maybe i should just edit/clarify/exapand on http://drupal.org/node/7765? let me know... thanks, -derek (dww)

Joomla
by Dries Buytaert 23 May '06

23 May '06

Hello, I met Joomla! lead developer this weekend, and attended a Joomla! 1.5 demo. Joomla! 1.5 is the next Joomla! release, currently in alpha/ beta. It will mark the first important release since Joomla! "spooned" from Mambo. Notable changes were: - A new install system with a very basic notion of install profiles! - Internationalization: interface translation only - Database abstraction layer - Separation of logic and presentation layer - Improved APIs, making it a better developer platform Clearly, they have been playing catch-up with Drupal. :-) They also stated that Joomla! 2.0, the version after Joomla! 1.5 will have a node system like Drupal. -- Dries Buytaert :: http://www.buytaert.net/

call a node with 2 "url"
by Davide Michel 'ZioBudda' Morelli 23 May '06

23 May '06

Hi. I have this problem: I have two node type that are the same but not for the category. One is under "tips" category and the another one is under "faq" category. Is there a way to create only one modules that can manage both (tips and category) ? A function where I can choose which is the correct category to show or a function that "create" the correct form. Tnx in advance. -- Michel 'ZioBudda' Morelli michel(a)ziobudda.net http://www.ziobudda.net ICQ: 58351764 http://www.phpbook.it FAX: 0291390660 http://www.ajaxblog.it TEL: 3939890025

Move all core modules into their own directories.
by Adrian Rossouw 22 May '06

22 May '06

We've discussed this to death during the freeze (even though we weren't supposed to), and most (if not all) the developers feel this is a good idea. When can we get around to doing this. The biggest issue I see is that all patches for 4.7 won't apply on HEAD. That is inevitable anyway, so I think we should just go for it already. =) -- Adrian Rossouw Drupal developer and Bryght Guy http://drupal.org | http://bryght.com

hi, I try to put some autocomplete function for the search box. I putted the '#autocomplete_path' => 'search/autocomplete', line to the search_box function, but it not put the this line <script type="text/javascript" <src="/drupal/misc/autocomplete.js"></script> to the page. I use the same thing on the search page and it is working. What is the solution? -- Ámon Tamás http://amon.hu
