Jamal, you should use ScrewTurn Wiki! I'm sure that's much easier. -----Original Message----- From: programmingblind-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:programmingblind-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Jamal Mazrui Sent: Thursday, December 02, 2010 6:36 AM To: programmingblind Subject: Wiki for collaborative hacking As another step to support collaborative hacking for improving EdSharp and other open source projects, I have created a wiki at http://wiki.EmpowermentZone.com It uses a standard configuration of the MediaWiki software, popularized by Wikipedia, http://wikipedia.org Currently, the best way of learning to use the wiki is by learning how to use the MediaWiki application. A collection of text tutorials on web content management systems, defined broadly, is available at http://EmpowermentZone.com/cms_doc.zip This includes tutorials on MediaWiki, Drupal, PHPMyAdmin, PHPBB, WordPress, and other new media applications. At this point, I have not figured out how to change the default name of "My Wiki" to something more customized! If anyone else can give me a tip on that, or can volunteer to help others become wiki contributors, please let me know. Other documentation collections that have recently been updated include the following: MySQL http://EmpowermentZone.com/mysqldoc.zip PHP http://EmpowermentZone.com/php_doc.zip and PostgreSQL http://EmpowermentZone.com/pgsqldoc.zip To go directly to the wiki page called HackingEdSharp, the URL is http://wiki.empowermentzone.com/index.php?title=Hacking_EdSharp Feel free to create wiki pages or categories on other topics on which you would like to teach or problem-solve together. This is experimental, but since we have talked about sharing by means of a wiki before, I thought I'd put it out there for people to try.! Jamal P.S. I realize that a source code control system would have additional benefits. My web host (HostMonster.com) does not have a simple script for installing such an application (a simple script enabled me to create this wiki). I hope others feel free to create more online resources in a similar spirit of using new media applications to support new or better interactions among us. __________ View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/programmingblind __________ View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/programmingblind
