Summary
The requirements:
- Implement the initial server in a short period of time;
- Server should work on XO laptops;
- System should support synchronisation between distributed servers and provide full featured text search.
That's why using Active Document to:
- Server should be as simple/lightweight as possible;
- No SQL, just NoSQL;
- Since server should support full featured text search, use Xapian and keep it as a "NoSQL replacement" with storing data directly in files system;
- If server will start serving users from the Internet and current implementation won't manage to handle multiple requests, another implementation might be created.
Todo
- Network notifications framework to, e.g., let client cache resources and refetch them only on updates. Reuse existing or implement something similar to Facebook's real-time updates.
- Support collaborative work on Wiki pages for different resources.
Getting involved
- Submit your bug report or feature request.
- Browse our implementation discussions, and post your feedback. (You should join this discussion list in order to avoid having your messages postponed for moderation.)
