Project Info

Project Name: XOActivityServer

Target Audience: OLPC developers

Expiration Date (required): 7/01/2007

Description/Summary:

We'll need a clearinghouse of XO activities. The mozilla project already has a codebase that does very similar stuff called "Remora". We want to have a box to play with Remora.

Project plan (Detailed):

• Install Remora.
• Play with Remora to simulate "XO Activities" instead of "Mozilla addons".
• ???
• Profit! (Or kill it if it seems to be unsuitable.)

Goals:

To assess the fitness of the Remora codebase for the XO Activity Server.

Specific resources needed

All of the resources required are listed here: http://wiki.mozilla.org/Update:Remora_Server_Requirements

The big requirement is PHP4, which makes my own Fedora box unsuitable for this purpose.

Also, I probably need shell and sudo on this box, since I'm going to be screwing with a lot of stuff.
