[website-discuss] Preview version of new OSO portal & Auth system
available
Posted:

The OSO team would like to announce the availability of a preview
version of the forthcoming replacement for the current OpenSolaris.org
portal.
The new portal can be cound at http://hub.opensolaris.org/ and the
associated OSO user management system can be found at
https://auth.opensolaris.org/
A test migration of the data in the current system into the Auth system
has been performed. If you log in to
https://auth.opensolaris.org/login.action with your current OSO username
and password you will be taken to an account edit page where you can
confirm your account details and view your account data, including your
SSH keys and the collectives (Communities, Projects & User Groups) that
you are a member of. The collective information from the current system
has been mapped to the proposed new constitution, including the new OSO
membership roles.
(http://www.genunix.org/wiki/index.php/OGB_2008/010_OpenSolaris_Constitution_2009).
If you log in to the Auth system you will also be logged in to the
existing site. Please note that although you can edit the data in the
Auth system, the live system will not be updated with the changes, and
any changes you make in the Auth system will be lost when when the next
test migration is performed.
The new portal at http://hub.opensolaris.org/ has been integrated with
the Auth system, so it obtains information about users and collectives
from the Auth system. There is no content in the portal, but the spaces
and pages are structured in line with the collective data that has been
migrated from the live system. For example, if you currently have edit
rights on pages on the live site, you will have the same rights on the
appropriate space in the new site.
Please note that this preview release is a work-in-progress and is
intended to be a test of the basic infrastructure - data migration,
application integration and rights management. The look and feel of the
sites is not as it will be in production, so we won't be addressing
anything other than data validity, rights management and functionality
issues at this stage. As we move towards production we will of course
switch focus towards look & feel.
We are depending on the community to help us shake the new system down
and identify any bugs or deficiencies, so if you have any feedback
please sent it to website-discuss at opensolaris dot org.
Many thanks,

Hello Allan,
first, congratulations for hub.opensolaris.org! I know how hard it is to migrate to a new engine.
Moreover, since I work a lot on xwiki these last week, I'm interest by trying (as far as I have free time :/) to help you. I know especially the developpment part (create some new xwiki class, forms, and groovy classs) of XWiki.
By the way, I'm wondering why you create some spaces like "Project_<name>" and "Community_<name>" rather than "<name>/Community" and "<name>/Project" where Community and Project implements two differents classes. I guess there is a particular reason, but I prefer to ask :)
Enjoy!

Hi Alan,
The preview works great, really nice and even over VPN good performance,
kudos to the team for this milestone!
One difference I notice is that I am able to edit pages in any
project/community/usergroup space. This is not the case for my username
in the current webapp. For example, I should not be able to edit pages
in the Project_arc-process, but I did so in my test today. So, possibly
permissions for admin are wider in the new model? Not sure, but thought
I should report this. (BTW, I only tried edit, not create.)
Let me know if you need me to try anything to verify this or future
changes to test the admin role edit privs.
Regards,
Michelle

That's because you are a site admin, and they can edit anything.

No, that's as expected. Thanks for the report though :-)

I logged in, updated my information, and then dumped in the index page
for the "pkg" project into the appropriate place. Worked fine--nice.
I have a whole host of notes for the theme developer(s), so it might
be good to tell us when and how such notes should be submitted. For
instance, a constructive approach might be to have a Mercurial
workspace with the css and other theme files, and some sample pages to
test with.
A related question: do you expect to develop new macros for
navigation, etc.? The list of Spaces is... large.

Good :-)

This area needs quite a bit of work. Ideally we'd be sharing as much of
the CSS as we can between the wiki and the other OSO apps. If you have
contributions, we could set up a repo for them.

Yes. I'd favour removing it altogether and a page that helps you find
the thing (project, community, ug) you are interested in instead.

I've created some sample pages in the docs community space. Should leaders of the current opensolaris.org docs community site expect to have permissions to edit/create pages on the xwiki docs community space?
