Volunteers needed to update the Flex showcase

Here is a new entry: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-34933

It should be fairly easy to update the
http://flex.apache.org/community-showcase.html page with the new entry.

If you need instructions on how to update the website, please ask :-)

Thanks,
Om

Ok, I'll install the client and will try to follow your instructions tomorrow
evening.

Hope the modifications were not much more work than creating the patch
itself ;-)
To make it better next time, could you tell me what you've modified?

>Please do let me know how I can facilitate that
A call "Volunteers needed..." like you did (Perhaps in the users forum also)
paired with a concrete and comprehensible task is a good way. The entry
barriers should be as low as possible.

I applied the patch a couple of days ago.  I had to modify a few things,
but everything looks good now.

Olaf, thanks for helping out.  I would like to see more such contributions
from the community.   Please do let me know how I can facilitate that.

Thanks,
Om

Hi,
I've just attached a .patch file to the JIRA ticket. It contains the updated
showcase.xml and renamed screenshots.
Could somebody pick it up and test it?

Only for my understanding, cause I've no SVN experiance:
Seems that I have to install a SVN client to be able to do this, right?
If so, wich one is recommend?

Thanks,
Olaf

It looks like the website is mirrored on Github as well.[1]

That means anyone could fork it and submit a pull request as well.

I couldn't find such a guide on the wiki, so I just added it, under
Helping Out[1]. Let me know if you'd like me to change anything (or,
if you have the time, go right ahead and make the edits).

Re: Volunteers needed to update the Flex showcase

Great, thanks for volunteering.

Only committers have access to the website SVN  repo, but anyone can check
it out, make changes and submit patches.  If you can do that, it would be
awesome.

Steps:
1.  Get the SVN repo from: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/flex/site
2.  Open the /trunk/content/showcase/data/showcase.xml file, and add in the
new website details.  This is the format:
   <app title=""
      author=""
      website=""
 dev=""
 >
      <description></description>
       <links>
           <link header="" url="" />
  <link header="" url="" />
       </links>
       <images baseDir="">
               <image file=""   />
  <image file=""   />
  <image file=""   />
       </images>
   </app>

3.  Add the images to the /trunk/content/showcase/images/{app name}
folder.  The preview thumbnails go in the
/trunk/content/showcase/images/{app name}/prev folder (if the images are
not in the required format, post on the JIRA ticket asking for the missing
files)

4.  Generate a .patch file
5.  Update the JIRA ticket with the patch file
6.  For good measure, post a note on this mailing list so that it gets
attention

At this point, an Apache Flex Committer will apply the patch, test it
locally and push a build of the website.

Hope that helps.  Please let me know if you need more details.

Thanks again!

Regards,
Om
