• BoF Intranet Ideas

last modified October 9, 2007 by b2jrock

These are some ideas for what to discuss in the Intranet birds of a feather session

  • Performance boosting on "save" of Archetypes based documents.
  • Better DAV/FTP support or better ways to upload/download many files at once
    • DAV performance is poor, and uploads can fail from indexing delays
    • Special characters such as & are not allowed, and DAV does not produce suitable error messages
    • FTP is insecure, not acceptable for modern corporate intranets.
    • High CPU loads when adding many content items at once
  • More DMS features
  • Ways to store tens-hundreds of thousands of office/pdf documents and larger files
  • Automatic conversion of metadata from documents
  • Better integration with common calendaring formats
  • Storing podcasts, cbts, etc in a meaningful way.
  • Quota implementation
  • Versioning as similar as possible to the wikipedia definition?
  • Documentation/best practices on plone.org for common use cases
    • No anonymous access corporate intranet
    • Corporate intranet with ability to publish to extranet
  • add more!
