This application must run on a Domino 8.5.2 server with the extension library installed. All other dependencies are included in the NSF. You can find a Documentation Wiki on BleedYellow.com

Currently this project is in the testing phase, there are a few known issues that need to be corrected before this moves from Alpha level to Beta Level. The known issues are (issues with a * next to them are preventing upgrade from Alpha to Beta):

• Adding a script block in the Rich Text editor works, however the script block is not available in the editor upon the next edit.
• RSS Import - In blogsphere you must fix a couple of bugs before you can import from a blogsphere template
• RSS Import - The email address of a commentor is not included and thus not imported
• IE 7 and IE 9 rendering is broken. Works fine in IE 8 - Fixed if using the Dojo Layout
• * RSS Import - Importing images is not currently supported, however the infrastructure is there, just need help importing gathered images via DXL or some other means
• * The viewScope bean is expiring after about 30 minutes, at which point you loose anything you haven't saved
• Does not function under Dojo 1.6  on an 8.5.2 server due to an incompatibility with the rich text editor, which is  corrected with Domino 8.5.3
• Image upload in rich text editor broken
