Tally-Ho is a refactoring of the codebase of the web site morons.org, which is itself a refactoring in Java of the original codebase that was written in PHP. It encompasses over 6 years of design lessons and active web community lessons learned. The system is highly devoted to reader participation, both in terms of commenting on articles and in producing them. A simple, yet flexible entitlement system lets you restrict posting to a trusted few or open it to all account holders in any Indymedia-like fashion. Presentation is separated from control, which is separated from service logic, which is separated from the object model. Persistence is based on JPA; dynamic components are handled using Wicket; overall page layout is performed with OpenSymphony's Sitemesh. Target database is PostgreSQL, but there's no reason it couldn't be adapted to target other databases, thanks to JPA. Things are in a *VERY* early stage of development right now. What's checked in is highly likely not to be usable, by anybody, for any purpose. Stay tuned. |
