Good for all likely not of importance anymore in two days

You can always move interesting conversations to a page with an appropriate title later. It's a wiki ;)

Entitling day-entries helps finding back things easier. New day-entries below this line, please.

Michele Tomaiuolo: You're making a very good work, Christoph. Thanks!

Christoph Sauer: You are welcome, I pass that on to you all. We are making good progress :)

RadomirDopieralski: I just thought of a minor improvement I'd like to ask for: to put the "log in/log out" link right next to where it says "G'day <insert your name here>". I find myself looking there to check if I'm recognized/authenticated and then searching the whole screen for the login link. By the way, it seems that this macro uses a different algorithm for recognizing users than the one generating recent changes.

ChristophSauer: Thanks for the suggestion. I will add that the next time I will update the software. I also will place the RecentChanges somewhere more visible. I will update the software anyway because I've fixed the "LostPassword" problem - so far JSPWiki was not able to use authentication for email server accounts when sending email, that's why I was not able to activate that feature.

ok, software update is done. Reset password should work now. "Null" user edits should be fixed as well, --ChristophSauer.

RadomirDopieralski: Thank you so much for the work. And for the login link. I just noticed a strange thing -- initially it said "G'day Visitor", then, when I logged in, it said "G'day RadomirDopieralski (not logged in)", then I logged in a second time and it said "G'day RadomirDopieralski (authenticated)".

ChristophSauer: Can you reproduce it? I restarted the server several times yesterday evening. Your login might got lost during this...

RadomirDopieralski: No, I can't reproduce it now. You're probably right. It wasn't critical or obnoxious, just interesting. This wiki is really improving, thank you.

Gregor Hagedorn I found this resource today and looked through it, being a content rather than system person. I like the ideas and hope this wins more support. I do not understand what is intended with Placeholder on Creole 0.5, please elaborate. I wrote Levels of Interoperability, please someone link it in - or ignore if out of scope - I cannot find a good parent place. I wrote a list of some markup wishes and comments on my personal page.

Christoph Sauer Dear creole parser developers. We have proposed a HyphenListMarkupProposal. I know that it is quite yet another change, but I think it's crucial. Please read through it carefully before you rant at me, because that was Chucks first response as well ;). I consider this as an important decision towards a Creole version 1.0. If we have sorted this out I feel pretty much that we are through.

My personal todolist/whishlist towards a Version 1.0

RadomirDopieralski: Going directly to http://wikicreole.org (without the www prefix) takes you to the default Tomcat page...

ChristophSauer: Thanks Radomir, forgot to set the alias for the virtual host. works now.

ChristophSauer: It's done. I've updated the server. Talk.AccessControlLists is still there. I'll work on that next week. Layout is cleaner now, but still needs some color and spice. Suggestions welcome.

Michele Tomaiuolo: I like the changes, Christoph. Great work! ;) Hmm... A little suggestion: if you keep all vertical margins smaller in the left box, links will be more visible and easy to click on.

JaredWilliams: Quick heads up, http://www.wikicreole.org/templates/creole/images/bulletUp.png is missing (404). Cannot edit Talk.Placeholder. Trying to go to http://www.wikicreole.org/Edit.jsp?page=Talk.Placeholder directly, results in a redirect to http://www.wikicreole.org/Edit.jsp?page=Talk.placeholder, for creation of a new page. Which seems odd.

RadomirDopieralski: Wow, the new looks does indeed look much better and cleaner. There are still some tiny little things to correct (for example the dashed bottom border on links to non-existent discussion pages, the 1px empty space between the tabs in the editor and the frame, the large line height in the sidebar) but I really like the direction. On a related effort, I tried to prepare a "web 2.0"-ish look for this page, but had a lot of problems with the current structure of the html. You can see my attempt at http://sheep.art.pl/work/creole/

Btw. I do like the dog and don't mind the graphics staying there and the animal being the mascot of the project and even a symbol of the Creole wiki. However, it makes a poor Wikipedia:logo for WikiCreole itself, not to mention the JSPWiki symbol in it. I was rather thinking of some kind of a simple yet recognizable symbol that people could put in their site's footer to announce that it supports Creole, or on an "edit with Creole" button.

I prepared this

favicon

for this site :)

JaredWilliams:

creole

. Any suggestions for better colours? Not sure if the animal is really recognizable either, (a stretched & squished version of Radomir's favicon above) unless you know what your looking at. But atleast a starting point. :)

RadomirDopieralski: I think I have a preference to greens (usability, user friendliness) and browns (tradition, standard, official), but that's just me.

I coudn't resist:

2007-02-06 Spicing things up#

RadomirDopieralski: As Creole matures, it starts to attract more attention. Soon we will have to direct our efforts more on advertising it and developing various plugins and converters than developing the standard.

This brings us to the topic of looks. It didn't matter at the beginning, but I think that we should improve the looks of this wiki a little, to give it impression of silidness and professionalism, and maybe even design some kind of good logo for Creole, for those little banners (colophons?) and "edit with Creole" buttons, so that the users will immediately know that they can use Creole on particular site.

If yuo don't mind, I'll try and prepare some style sheet for this wiki. We can also think about making a LogoContest soon.

ChristophSauer: I was about to change the looks this week by installing a slightly modified template. I will not do any big layout changes though, so feel free to make suggestions. We could have a LogoContest, but I actually like to keep the dog (btw, his name is viki ;), anyway we will see.
