Description The template that OpenNTF uses to manage all the open source projects on the OpenNTF site. In Catalog
No


The database will serve the following purpose:

1) Lets a user submit a project idea (this person then becomes the proposer)

2) People go to the Project Ideas view, click on the project ideas up for discussion, and cast their vote in favor or against the project.

3) The proposer edits the project idea doc, selects the option to convert the idea to a project, and submits - the idea automatically gets converted to a project, with the proposer automatically becoming the "master chef" or project lead for that project

4) The master chef opens the project doc, clicks on a button to post an "Opening" document, asking for volunteers to join the project

5) People click on the "Openings" link to apply to an opening

6) The master chef accepts a person who's applied, and this person becomes a member of the team

7) The master chef and team works on the project using Crucible for discussions/idea exchanges/etc, and once a release is finalized, opens the project management db and "Posts a release", which becomes available to the general public.

8) The master chef can post as many releases as they want, and also post news articles about the project whenever they want - these articles show up on the welcome page along with the latest releases and opening


Projects can have short and readable URLs, e.g. http://mobilecontrols.openntf.org.

You can request a short URL to your project by sending a mail to support at openntf dot org. Put the word 'OpenNTF' somewhere in the subject.
Owners are the people with maximal rights. For example they can create releases and add more contributors.

In order to define multiple owners use "," (comma) as separator.

Because of data privacy you cannot lookup other people's names but you have to type them in.
Enter the contributors or owners here who you want to receive notifications and questions by email.

In addition to the owners additional OpenNTF contributors have to be listed here. Contributors don't have the same access rights as owners, e.g. they cannot create releases.

Enter a short description of the project here (up to 100 characters).

The short description shows up in the project UI and in some of the views.
In this field you should enter a more detailed description of your project.

You can use the rich text editor for rich text formating. You can also enter HTML to embed objects, e.g. to embed a YouTube video or a screenshot of the project. In this case use '[' and ']' to mark the passthrough HTML as such.

Please note that the first time you use the new UI your description is converted from rich text to MIME. You might want to copy and paste the raw plain text from the old UI in the new UI so that you don't loose information.
A Catalog Release is for projects that are production ready and that are end-user "install friendly".
