We’ve been making a lot of progress on trunk since our last stable release (KForge 0.11). The main focus has been on focusing out core code into a separate package named DomainModel (python package: dm). This refactoring has become increasingly necessary as the core KForge code has started to be reused in other projects such as CKAN (Comprehensive Knowledge Archive Network). With this refactoring complete it is now much easier to reuse core components and the clean separation of code is also making testing easier.

The KForge command line interface has been extensively overahauled and centralized into a single script: kforge-admin (the other remaining scripts are only used for development).
Not only does kforge-admin centralize all the old commands in one handy place it also provides interactive support and makes it easier to move between different KForge installations (something also assisted by the move to a default of site-wide installation of the KForge system when you run python setup.py install). You can find more about exactly what it will do by just running:
$ kforge-admin
Quite a bit of effort has been put into improving the help and making this slicker but I’m sure rough edges remain. If you encounter one please let me know (or post a trac ticket).

KForge 0.9 is now done and dusted but we’ve decided to hold off the formal release until the new year. We’ve done this for two reasons. First off, this will give us some time to ‘eat our own dog food’ (i.e. install it on our servers) so as to catch any last minute items. Second, and more important, it will mean that rather than being caught up in the last minute rush before Christmas it will instead be rolled fresh and clean in the New Year when everyone (including ourselves) will have proper time to digest.

A new release of KForge (0.9) will be available any day soon with a release date set for late next week or early the week after — whatever happens it will be before christmas

Welcome to the KForge Project site. The KForge project is about producing software to support open knowledge production and distribution. Work on the software has been ongoing for about a year but as we’re nearing our first full-on ‘release’ we thought it was time to get a ‘proper’ website ….
