Foswiki night builds of trunk and Release01×00 branch
I’ve just (finally) set up the auto unit test run, PerlCritic and release build for the Release01×00 branch, and fixed the trunk builder.
Foswiki trunk gets built every 6 hours, and Release01×00 every 12 (based on my Sydney TZ).
If the unit tests fail, and email will be sent to the foswiki-discuss mailing list – no news is good news. See the build output areas:
where you will find the output log files, the built tar.gz and zip files and each of the component packages that make up a release.

new FugueIconsContrib
I created the FamFamFamContrib Icons package for T(m)wiki and Foswiki a year or three ago, and now have added a FugueIconsContrib package today – containing the fabulous iconset by Yusuke Kamiyamane.
Now we have 2 possible icon sets to replace the very odd and aging DocumentGraphics topic – the only thing holding us back is a mapping from the old %ICON{}% names to new.
I’ll dig up the work I did last year some time and see if we can finish it

Foswiki 1.1 Admin dashboard preview
I’ve been working on expanding the use of Foswiki Applications and in the process began to build (using TML) a much more usable user interface for configuring and managing your Foswiki.
So – to the picture show
Easy to access over-view
Quickly customise your Foswiki site.
Admin friendly selection of visual settings
Many of these features already do work in Foswiki 1.0.4 – by installing FoswikiApplications Contrib, but they are a work in progress – and getting more advanced every week.

Foswiki 1.0.4 released – OSX, Windows and Debian installers ready too
Foswiki 1.0.4 has been released with more than 100 bug fixes and some small enhancements. Upgrading is highly recommended. If you did not upgrade from TWiki yet, now is a good time as Foswiki 1.0.4 fixes more around 300 bugs relative to TWiki 4.2.4.
Grab it now from : http://foswiki.org/Download/WebHome – the straight and upgrade archives, OSX installer and my Windows Installers are here.
My debian package repository now spans Foswiki 1.0.4 and 168 Foswiki extensions – its never been easier to install
see http://fosiki.com/Foswiki_debian
Over the 4 months of our project’s existence, 33 developers have been involved in making ~3000 commits – next up, the future !

debian repository for Foswiki
I’ve set up a debian repository that you can help test the release package before it gets uploaded into debian proper.
To try it out, add the following to your /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://fosiki.com/Foswiki_debian/ stable main contrib
deb-src http://fosiki.com/Foswiki_debian/ stable main contrib
and then run
apt-get update
apt-get install apache2 foswiki
This repository contains about 108 foswiki-extensions – auto updated nightly direct from foswiki.org. The packages have as many dependencies as I was able to coerce my build scripts to work out – but there is more work needed.
Sorry, you will get a gpg error on these packages, they are updated nightly direct from foswiki.org – and signing the repository requires personal intervention (as far as I can see).
