Where said "v0.4" would be the result of converging four lists mentioned in requirement #711.

To do this for the UKLP, the Ordnance Survey would need to add to their map service an operation to return image for a given bounding box, and COI would need to present the image on the search result page.

Otherwise, it would be possible to use Google.

Add a config option 'template_footer_end' which is inserted in layout_template just before </body>.

This allows sysadmins to add extra items, especially, scripts directly into site without having to do any theming and is especially useful for things like google analytics.

Aside: going forward may want to turn this into a extension.

Move the solr SearchBackend? to a seperate code base, remove any mentions of the CKAN model.

CKAN uses a database. We can put the database on another machine and then clone the CKAN machine. Then there are two machines calling the database and converting SQL results into HTTP responses.

How many machines can you have before the database becomes the bottleneck? At that point, what QoS can be obtained with normal hardware?

Afterwards, can CKAN be made to scale further than this with a little development? Can its Postgres database be mirrored in realtime? Or can we change SQL writes (create/updates) to write to many databases?

Are there any other options for scaling the persistence mechanism?

Solutions: ResourceSeriesLoader? allows synonyms for values.

e.g. national_child_measurement_programme had no department but "Information Centre for Health and Social Care" for agency, and TNA inferred it should be under department DoH. But now the next ONS update to this series expects a blank department, so creates a new package national_child_measurement_programme_.

• Uses API to change licenses of all packages in a CKAN instance to a particular one.

• Run it on DGU.

No need for requirement - closing in favour of #505

Occasionally data4nr removes a data package from its registry. When the latest full data4nr data is imported, these removed packages should be found and removed.

as above

Use case: extensions need to add to template and public search paths if they wish to have templates or extra static files (such as js etc).

Allowing plugins to edit the config dictionary on load would allow this (and more!).

Are there any security considerations here? (Is is bad to allow extensions to make arbitrary changes to the config information?)

If the notes field could use a WYSIWYG editor with word cleanup this would really help users who may well be pasting in text from Word (and I guess may have been approved or written by someone else)

having auto-complete on tags would both make the system easier to use - and reduce the risk of synonymous tags being created inadvertently.

Does the department drop down options list interact with user permissions - so that users who only have rights to one department only see that option ?

Similarly for licenses - can this reduce to the set of allowed options for this user/

What level of validation is there on the fields?

Make parts of the package form hidden by default, to make it look simpler. Users are invited to click a button to reveal the less important fields.

Fields hidden by default: version, author, author_email, maintainer, maintainer_email

Similar to ticket:108 but for tags:

/api/search/tag?q

For tags search is extremely simple since you can only search by name.

Possible Extras

• Allow "exotic" ordering of results e.g. ordering by number of packages with that tag.
• Return this number with tag list.

as per http://ckan.org/wiki/UIRedesignSearch

Test coverage for ckan.lib.diff is 24%. Need to improve

So that Drupal doesn't need to make any adjustments to the form, and risk data being lost on submission.

Control using cookies.

This has been done in IATI ckan but should be ported over to CKAN main and put into the UI in a nice fashion.

IATI: ​http://bitbucket.org/okfn/iati/changeset/378431974c76 (related to #520)

Requires SOLR search backend (for postgres should fall back gracefully -- just do not show them).

As a sysadmin I want to take CKAN out of wiki-mode into normal mode. In normal mode visitor and logged in users cannot create or add packages.

Suggest put this as an internal command in authz system and add to cli as paster command.

The AlphaPage? implementation assumes that all packages start with a latin character. This is not true for Russian, Chinese, Arabian and Persian languages etc. We should either use a unicode solution (i.e. display a full class of characters based on the current locale) or use generic paging instead.

Either CKAN writes to SOLR and Drupal reads from SOLR, or CKAN writes to SOLR and Drupal reads SOLR via CKAN API (so search resource locations are unaffected).

Write a worker that scans all packages in a ckan instance and uploads the data to storage.ckan.net.

• Naming scheme?
  • Bucket: {ckan-instance-id}-{package-name}? {ckan-instance-id}-{package-id}?
    • What happens if names change
  • File: filename? hash?
• Store hash back on ckan instance?

Storage represents something you can upload to (download is done in ticket:406).

• storage sub package with defined interface (maybe just use OFS)
• Only support uploading single files for the moment (though can do multiple files).
  • Relationship to build (ticket:306)
  • No support for syncing e.g. hg/git repos -- that's up to you as a user
• Upload command

At end of this we can deprecate Repository.

Having Repository encapsulate Index and Storage (without Storage being explicit) is not helpful and leads to duplication.

Move ckan trac to new ckan.org location. Will also need to re-enable user accounts etc.
