Some of phpBB3′s major features include:

• Modular design for the Admin Control Panel, Moderator Control Panel, and User Control Panel
• Support for multiple database management systems, including MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, PostgreSQL, SQLite, Firebird, OpenLink Virtuoso, and other ODBC-accessible DBMS
• Support for unlimited levels of subforums
• Ability to create custom-defined BBCode
• Ability to create custom profile fields
• Permissions system

phpBB3 also provides administrators with much more control over every aspect of the forum software, such as how it is displayed to management of user and group permissions. Consequently, this increased functionality makes the administrative interface much more complex, and new users have found it somewhat more intimidating than phpBB2.

phpBB3′s default theme is called prosilver. During phpBB3′s long development process, prosilver was kept a heavily guarded secret from the public in order to prevent premature copying of the theme and so that it would not spoil the “wow” factor upon the final release of phpBB 3.0.0; however, the unexpected website downtime of March 2007 prompted the teams to change plans and unveil the new theme early. prosilver includes a number of new design concepts over its predecessor subSilver, including a new admin panel without HTML frames and reduced use of HTML tables. One of the more contentious decisions has been to move the user info panel on the viewtopic page to the right in order to provide more focus on the post content phpBB3 does not allow the use of HTML tags in comments. An alternate default theme called subsilver2 comes bundled with phpBB, which is based on the default theme from phpBB2 called subSilver. However, an administrator must install it on the board manually before it is accessible to users.

The phpBB Development Team quietly pushes out release candidates of minor updates of phpBB3 for “quality assurance testing” prior to general release. These candidates are intended to prevent the possibility of significant bugs being produced by minor updates, thus causing a subsequent critical update to be released within days of the original. (This scenario happened twice during the 2.0.x line and once during phpBB’s release candidate stage in 2007.) A mailing list is open to anyone interested in testing these “quality assurance” releases when they are available.

The latest in the 3.0.x line is phpBB 3.0.4, the “one year anniversary” version, code named “Olympus”, released on December 12 2008. phpBB3 requires PHP 4.3.3 or later and is fully compatible with PHP 5.

History

dotCMS was initially developed as a Java alternative to the PHP CMSes on the market, as well as to provide a counterpoint to high cost, enterprise applications. It is the result of over 5 years of development by dotMarketing, Inc, which also developed and released the open source project management tool dotProject. In order to achieve compliance with JSR-168 portlet specification dotCMS was built upon the Liferay portal, though has since forked Liferay at version 3.2.2. dotCMS 1.0 was initially open sourced and made available in 2005 under the dotMarketing Public License. In 2006, dotCMS released version 1.2 which included the structured content engine. In 2007 dotCMS released version 1.5, which included a new user interface and permissions. In October, 2007 dotCMS 1.5 was the runner up for Packt Publishing’s “Best New Open Source CMS” award, followed in 2008 by a second place finish for Packt’s “Best Other Open Source CMS (best non PHP CMS)”. In February 2008, dotCMS users held the first annual “Open Minds” conference in Coconut Grove, Florida. Currently, dotMarketing continues to develop and improve features within dotCMS, such as the social calendar and WebDav integration.

Community

dotCMS has an active and engaged community. There is an annual users conference, a listserv, IRC channel, and Ning and Facebook groups. dotMarketing has also began work on an official community web site, which will be home to a new documentation system a la PHP.net, allowing users to comment and provide examples of code usage, as well as collaborate. The current user base includes deployments by thousands of companies, news organizations, universities, individuals, and more. More information regarding the dotCMS community can be found on the dotCMS website.

Open Minds Conference

The first annual Open Minds Conference was held February 7-10 in Miami, FL. This event was designed to bolster excitement in the community, and provide a venue for users to meet, collaborate, and network. Topics ranged from introductory installation sessions, to more advanced talks on setting up development environments, and was attended by more than 60 participants from 20 institutions. The second annual conference is scheduled for February 4-6, 2009, and will remain in Miami.

IRC Channel

For users familiar with IRC, you can visit the dotCMS channel on Freenode. If you do not have an IRC client, or are unfamiliar with their usage, dotMarketing has provided a web page based client. Either way will allow you to chat with other users and experts on the usage of dotCMS.

Technologies

dotCMS is a standards based CMS written in the JAVA programming language, and comes bundled with the Apache Tomcat Application Server. It is database agnostic and can run on PostgreSQL, MySQL, MSSQL or Oracle. It is capable of integrating with user’s authentication scheme’s, such as Active Directory or LDAP, and will support operation in a clustered or load balanced environment. It leverages a number of standards based open source projects such as:

• Apache Struts Web Framework
• Apache Lucene Search Engine
• Apache Velocity Templating Language
• Liferay Portal
• EXT Javascript Framework
• Apache Tomcat Application Server
• OSCache distributed caching system
• Hibernate Object Relational Mapping

Structured Content

The driving concept behind content stored within dotCMS is that it is addressed through a system of structures. Structures are administrated through a back end portlet where fields are assigned to them. Fields are named and given a content type and then ordered. Each structure can then be permissioned and used when creating content, and allows different types of content with consistent components to be referenced for display on the front end. A “web page content” structure could be assigned a title and body, for instance, while “events” have titles, dates, times, locations, descriptions, links, etc. Structures therefore allow the CMS to tailor itself to the content demands of the institution using it, because they can create and define structures that are specific to their needs. Those structures can then be created through relationships, allowing content from one structure to be associated content items in another. There is no limit to the number of structures one can use within dotCMS.

The specification, called Content Management Interoperability Services (CMIS), establishes how content management systems (CMSs) can use a set of Web services interfaces, as well as the REST and Atom protocols to link with other repositories. The vendors announced that it plans to submit the specs to the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS), the standards body that oversees many Web services standards today.

“Historically content management systems were purchased for specific application uses and this led to islands of incompatible systems,” the specification states in the introduction. “The objective of the CMIS standard is to define a common content management Web services interface that can be implemented by content repositories and enable interoperability across repositories.”

It is expected that existing vendors of content management systems will implement the specification, so that when their customers need to move a set of data from one repository to another, they will have an easy set of commands to carry out the work. Not every feature in every content management system will be replicated, and some systems will have to be retrofitted to talk with the new features, the document warns.

SMIS is built on an object model. In the parlance of CMIS Version 1, a content repository has four basic entities, called objects: Documents, folders, relationships and policies. All the objects are extensible, meaning they can be extended with new attributes. CMIS offer specifications for creating, reading updating and deleting objects. Services are also defined for filing documents, navigating the repository and querying documents within the repository

Issuing commands and transferring information across repositories will be conducted by using the Simple Object Access Protocol. A subscription service, where users can be notified when a document changes, will be carried out using the Representational State Transfer protocol.
