Addon factory and packages submission service

Addon factory and packages submission service

Two new services are active:

• Lanius CMS Factory - a wizard (not yet complete) which shall help you in creation of simple components, modules and drabots
• Packages submission service - a frontend tool to submit Lanius CMS packages (components, modules, drabots, templates and language packages) which are ready to release (use the issue tracker otherwise for incomplete packages or packages needing review) to the Lanius CMS Team

The activation of these two new services is the first step in a path that will lead to the true opening of the Lanius CMS potential.

The next step in our roadmap is to complete the documentation, both for users and developers (this is necessary to allow 3rd party packages).

The packages submission service will become an important tool in near future, when the CMS will be detached from all the optional packages; we will bring total customization at hand through it.

How to use them

We will active submitted packages directly in the online updates service for all Lanius CMS users, once we have verified them and added to the public SVN repository. If your license is not compatible with GNU GPL v2, we will not accept it.

Translators and template designers are invited to use the packages submission service; addon developers should wait some more time (at least v0.5.2) but can start using the Factory for their learning.
