Introduction

The sandbox is a part of the Ontopia project where there is a much lower bar for adding new modules. In general, anything Ontopia-related can go here. The idea is that code which is not ready for going into the product itself can be hosted here so that the community can look at it and play with it. Someone may then take it and develop something fully finished from it, or it may just stay there and eventually be deleted.

Subversion

The Subversion repository contains part of the sandbox, in a directory next to the top-level ontopia directory. Here there is one directory for each module, and each directory should contain a README file stating what is in that directory.

Wiki

Sandbox modules do not necessarily need to be added to the Subversion repository, but can also be linked to from here. Our thinking is that this allows other people than just committers to play in the sandbox, and it also allows modules to be hosted outside the main Ontopia project.

Below can be found some sandbox modules:

• tmphoto, a web photo gallery based on Ontopia
• query-tmql, a TMQL query parser
• Eclipse templates and profile, following CodingGuidelines
