There is a specific list [email protected] which can help you with getting up and running (please read the archives prior posting). If you encounter no glitches it should be up and running in some 30 minutes. If you do, it might take significantly longer :-) As mentioned OSX is not a primary deployment platform and not nearly tested as well as the Linux packages. I would suggest to use a cheap PC to run OGo instead of wasting the precious OSX hardware on it ;-) (especially PPC hardware tends to be much slower for the given task than even the cheapest ix86 hardware) >> Some classes make me think of WebObjects. Does that mean I could >> customize some templates? Are there re-usable wo-components? Yes, all templates are just regular WOComponents though in the case of OGo the WOResourceManager is patched a lot (for theming and resource lookup in FHS locations). A lot of the components are reusable ones. We also use a lot of advanced WODynamicElements from SOPE for speed reasons (which cannot be easily changed w/o coding). > If you want roles for appointment particpants which are quite usefule > you need to use 1.1.x, otherwise you can use 1.0.x. For OSX I tend to recommend the latest alpha release available (like 1.1.3), or maybe even trunk. Issues *do* come up now and then and we definitely won't add OSX specific patches to OGo 1.0 (feature frozen).
