SoC Report

I've done extensive testing with:
a local installation (default)
www.ccmixter.org
www.ccmixter.co.za
www.esolpc.com/teacherhost
www.opensourcecinema.org
openclipart.org/cchost/
tvlivre.org/cchost

I've got problems with ccmixter.org, but I don't know exactly what's wrong. And with
openclipart.org/cchost/, because ccPublisher raises a HTMLParseError, regarding
a malformed start tag. But everything else is OK.

I've wrote a small tutorial into ccWiki,
http://wiki.creativecommons.org/CcPublisher_Uploading_to_ccHost_Installations

Yesterday I added upload and final pages to ccPublisher.
After I change the way the files are read into memory and post, I will fix the upload progress bar. For now it's impossible to see the proportion of the file that was already sent.

Now it's possible to upload files to any ccHost Installation with ccPublisher. But I need to test it later.

Finally I concluded this one, that I believe was the harder page to implement.
It's working fine with postremixform and newuploadform.

I added the functions I implemented into publishcchost to ccPublisher.
Now I need to make the user interface.

After a lot of bug fixes, publishcchost works with all submission types.
It returns upload failure reason, and search samples remixed by user too.
I think it's cool.
But now I need to stop working on it and start implementing these features in ccPublisher.
A bad new: since Monday it's not working with ccmixter.org. I need to find the problem.

Now the interface of publishcchost is looking better.
It displays labels form, not only input identifications.
Although it doesn't display tips, it already get it from form

Finally I've uploaded a file to a ccHost installation. =)
Yes, it's working now
But not yet for remixes

yeah, it has been pretty funny
I wanna do the same with ccHost

A command line interface program, that upload files to any cchost installation, was added to cchost/bin.
But it is not yet complete.

it's a new function, that shows all the enabled submission types

I committed to svn today.
Yeah, now I'm a developer on ccPublisher =)

The event was amazing. It really expanded my knowledge about creative commons licenses, and related things.
Furthermore, it was fun, I met the creative commons developer guys and a few Brazilian friends.

And free beer for all =)

Today I submitted my first patch.
It has all the work I have done until now. Let see what Jon will say about the code.

Yeah, I know I should commit more often. I'll try to do that!

Now I'm trying to add the functions I implemented to ccPublisher. It's time to work with the interface, and learn more about it.

I'm learning to use urllib, urllib2 and htmllib. I need to use the post method to interface with cchost installations.
I'm already coding, but I am not worrying about the integration with ccPublisher. I'm just doing some scripts.

I read the documentation recommended by Jon

I took a look in ccpublisher track, too
http://roundup.creativecommons.org/ccpublisher/

I want to start coding soon.

I created my user page in creative commons' wiki

Jon Phillips, my mentor, mailed me, suggesting me to read the following documentation:

I just got confirmation that I was accepted in Google's Summer of Code project.
My mentoring organizations is Creative Commons, and my project is the implementation ccPublisher support for uploading works to ccHost installations.
I'm going to write more about it later.
