How To Acces The Open Repository

Hi,

I’ve just had a very frustrating few minutes trying to find this out…

I did a quick google, nothing obvious. So, I check the docs…

Then,

there is also the Cincom public database, which is available for code

updates and user contributions (visit the Cincom Smalltalk Developer’s

Wiki, http://www.cincomsmalltalk.com:8080/CincomSmalltalkWiki, for

more information.)

Took the link. Ahh there it is..

Took..Access The Open Repository got…

(A) “A public Store Repository is now available for group projects, code sharing, and donations. We are interested in receiving any and all feedback on the repository and the Store source management tools for VisualWorks.”

Resisted the temptation to leave something I would regret…

Went back.. took.. So What’s In The Repository

And then took “how to access the open Repository” which took me back to (A)

Ahhggghhh…..

(The web is grate, but not that great!)

But since it is a wiki you fixed that all, right?

Since only a few Smalltalkers (if any) want to buy Viagra via the
VisualWorks or Cincom Smalltalk Wikis, I wonder if it wouldn't be better
to protect them so that one has to create an account to edit the pages.
It's frustrating to see both Wikis modified by spammers over and over again.

These problems tend to come in waves. We haven't had many problems lately
with the CST wiki, before this

The main page of the CST Wiki was spammed again recently (and yes, I fixed it).

I also vote for password protection.

Re: AW: How To Acces The Open Repository

Perhaps it might be sufficient to ask for an email address on page
change, and check it against 'who vwnc', or something along those lines?
