Hi, how about using a different repository for all web-specific stuff we have? Vendor drops of web apps, whole trunk/web, etc. All of these are totally unrelated (in terms of repository-internal relations) with the actual OS components.
Current situation went from long time ago when there was only one repository possible. It's been a long time since we migrated to svn:// svn.reactos.org/repostiory/... path, so it's possible now.
rosweb, or web could be a name for a new one.
Comments are welcome.
WBR, Aleksey Bragin.
I've been wanting this separated for a LONG time. I agree, it has nothing to do with ReactOS itself and should deserve it's own separate repository.

YES. It's about damn time we finally separated the web stuff from the OS itself *cough*. To be frank, the CMS is more of a separate project entirely that just happens to be used by the ROS team and has several ROS members working on it.
How about actually branching it off as a completely separate project and seeing if it generates any interest? It might be a good way to both improve the codebase and generate some good publicity for ReactOS

It doesn't make sense for everything in web/, some things like RosCMS can be developed seperately, but other things like the supportDB are imo not that useful for other websites, so they should remain near the reactos repo.
Yeah, I was referring to splitting only RosCMS into a standalone project. Any addons, bespoke items, forums, etc would be separate to this.

I think Ged means publishing RosCMS as a standalone project (releases, news, etc), useful for other people, not moving it to yet another repository of course. At least it could give it more testing, more real usage, and show off its advantages over hundreds of other existing CMS.

I planned already while the development of RosCMS 4, to make it usable for other sites. And establish a standalone site for it. Also with marketing for ReactOS in mind.
Readonly version of the repository is ready for testing: svn://svn.reactos.org/web
Paths aren't changed yet (they represent the layout from the main repo), and there is an artifact of a few empty revisions in the beginning (from 2 to 21), but besides this things are fine.

Gentlemen,
I have a question about RosCMS. Is it possible to use it for ANY website ? Let's say an online store. With a forum. And a facility to upload videos and pictures (think Youtube or Dailymotion but with the ability to upload static picture galleries as well, with Lightviewhttp://www.nickstakenburg.com/projects/lightview/or lightbox.js http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox/). And a blog portion. And a database of downloads, sortable by tags or categories.
I know the ReactOS website already has a forum and blogs. Can the other features be implemented so that they can be administered from within RosCMS ?

Forum and Blogs have their own administration, RosCMS just provides some plugins for them to use RosCMSs login system instead of their own, so that you can use all with only one account. RosCMS itself just generates static files like .html or .css.
To get more info about RosCMS, you can visit #reactos-web on freenode.net or get this discussion to ros-web mailinglist, but you can also write me an E-Mail, I don't think that this ML is the right place for RosCMS discussions.
I had to do a reimport, because Danny's branch was not included. Url is the same svn://svn.reactos.org/web But if someone did a checkout of that repository before the re- import, you need to trash it and do a new one.
Currently, those people have write access to the repository: cfinck - Colin Finck cwittich - Christoph von Wittich dgoette - Danny Goete abragin - Aleksey Bragin frik85 - Klemens Friedl gedmurphy - Ged Murphy
Passwords match your main accounts. If someone else needs write access, drop me a line.

RosCMS seems to basically be an SSO (single-sign-on) framework rather than a complete CMS. Still, I think RosCMS would get more love spun off as a separate project rather than being needlessly huggled to ReactOS.
All of the content publishing, newsletters, pages, etc, are handled by CMS code written by the web team. It just happens to have also been modified to integrate nicely with other things like the forum and blogging system.
