h1. Meeting Log 22.03.2010 - 20:00 / mumble Present: Apophis, Corvus, Exception, Vanadis, cockroach, dergringo Excused: Simon Rupf Lead meeting: Corvus Log writer: dergringo h1. Issues h2. Status Reports h2. Media Hosting In previous meetings we were talking about media hosting on wiki and file server. Now there is also the wish for a gallery. h2. New Forum The current forum software (phpBB3) is very hard to maintain. The reason for this is that phpBB is not offering a real plugin system with hooks and callbacks. Instead one need to modify the source which makes updating a pain. There is an extension ("AutoMod") that does the modification of the source for you but you have to create mods in the ModX format. Instead of creating crappy mods for phpBB, I (dergringo) suggest to switch the forum software to MyBB (open source vbulletin-like) and then create mods for it. I have already tested the migration from phpBB to myBB and it worked with out any problems. h2. New Wiki Skin Currently we are using mediawiki 1.15. Our skin is based on the default skin of the <=1.15 development. Mediawiki has done a lot of research in usability and sexyness and the new version (1.16) comes with a completely redisigned skin named Vector (preview: "http://stage.piratenpartei.ch/wiki":http://stage.piratenpartei.ch/wiki). Users have been complaining a lot about the lack of usability. So this would be a good chance to fill this gap. h2. Varia h3. DNS Server Switch h3. Backup * How to proceed? _Open Discussion_ h3. Media Hosting * How to proceed? _Open Discussion_ h3. Spendenbarometer The "Spendenbarometer" should be placed somewhere. The idea is to put it on murray reachable under api.piratenparte.ch. h3. Intrusion Detection System _Open Discussion about usefulness of internal and external IDS such as Samhain and Snort_ bc. Might be a good idea but at the moment there is no need for it and requires a lot of work. h3. Documentations A short survey to everyone
