Dear
SuperWaba community,
For a few months now,
SuperWaba has been heading more and more towards being a full Open Source project.
A
SourceForge site has been setup to share source code through CVS, distribute official releases, publish documents and provide a framework for project management (bug tracking, patch submissions, etc.)
Guilherme has completed a full automated build process and some people are already talking about unit testing; the resulting build & test logs would be uploaded to the SourceForge site.
This brings development SuperWaba much closer to
XP = Extreme Programming concepts
Another modern tool for project collaboration and information sharing is Wiki. You're reading it right now.
For the people that never heard about Wiki, here is Guich's definition:
A web page that can be edited by the visitors
And that's just what it is, browse the site, read an interesting topic. If you understand the subject

and think you could improve the explanation or think that something is missing, just click the "Edit" command at the page bottom and change/add what you want. Also, if you think a topic is not covered, go ahead and add it.
The Guest account can be used, but we recommend that you create your own account to "sign" your changes for others to be able to collaborate with you if necessary. Creating a new account is free, painless and does not sign you up for spam. To be authenticated, you can
register for an account.
There is a little restriction imposed by SourceForge to prevent spamming:
If you want to receive emails (registration confirmation, change notifications you may have subscribed to etc.) you need a SourceForge account and a
SuperWabaWiki account that uses the same email address as the one you provided in your SourceForge account. Alternatively use your SourceForge email address, which looks like :
your_name@users.sourceforge.net
The
SuperWabaWiki is divided into a few so-called WEBs (parts):
| Main | Superwaba information and user material |
| Codev | Superwaba code development information |
| TWiki | TWiki documentation (the site uses the wiki implementation "twiki") |
| Know | Knowledge base - to be defined |
| Sandbox | A place where you can learn the text formatting rules to render information with Wiki without messing up the main site |
Happy learning!
Remember, Wiki is only a tool. The content quality depends on you
The Superwaba Team
