Access Control System Overhauled

January 30th, 2006

After extensive discussion earlier this month the access control system has been seriously overhauled and improved thanks to John’s efforts. You can read all about it here: http://lists.okfn.org/pipermail/kforge-dev/2006-January/000140.html

and here: http://lists.okfn.org/pipermail/kforge-dev/2006-January/000143.html

With a few more tweaks this should form the basis of a 0.91 release.

January 12th, 2006

More Information

KForge is an open-source (GPL) system for managing software and knowledge projects. It re-uses existing best-of-breed tools such as a versioned storage (subversion), a tracker (trac), and wiki (trac or moinmoin), integrating them with the system’s own facilities (projects, users, permissions etc). KForge also provides a complete web interface for project administration as well a fully-developed plugin system so that new services and features can be easily added.

Major features:

  • Projects, users and permissions
  • Best of breed tools available out of the box including subversion, trac, moinmoin
  • Extensible with a fully developed plugin system and simple API
  • Opensource and python-based
