[Labs-l] A proposal for better tool discoverability

Thu Aug 14 10:32:10 UTC 2014

Awesomeness has been found!
This thing was long overdue and finally you came up with an easy
solution. Thx.

Many approaches have been started in the past to solve this issue (lokal
wikis, meta, some fields iin wikitech...).
Maybe merge this info with some ldap fields and make it accessible it
via OAuth, too.
We should definitely start a discussion to gain more ideas about a
unified, comprehensive Tools(Labs)-directory - this json-thing is the
right starting point.

If Coren & Andrew could start and coordinate such a small but
nonetheless important project (~4 weeks), that would be great.

As a first suggestion to the current json:
- Could you add a field "repo" to tell "OpenSource" from
"Not-So-OpenSource" and to have all relevant info's at a glance ?

...and a minor thing:
Pls. add

mimetype.assign  += (
    ".log"  => "text/plain",
)

to your .lighttpd.conf (create if not exist). That'll make the logs
readable in the browser.

Good job. Cheers
