Re: bug report for windows

Hi Christian,

thank you very much for your report - I'm sorry that you
get a somehow sobering impression of Lenya at this moment.
But, to cite Michael, you have to break an egg if you want
to make an omelet.

The points I didn't comment are known issues due to refactoring,
most of them will probably be corrected during the next 1 or 2 weeks.

I'm working on Windows too, so I can try to reproduce the errors.

OK, it doesn't work on my machine. But I can view the live site at
http://localhost:8080/lenya/computerworld/index.html.

The default publication is still empty and the login not yet enabled.

There is no authoring area for the documentation publication,
but we won't fix anything on this publication because the old
docs are obsolete and will be replaced.

On my machine both views are working well. If the problem still appears
with a newer version, we will have to trace it.

There is no authoring area for the scratchpad.
Its purpose is just to try out things.

Yes, we know. But it's very helpful for us to get such reports,
even if we can't fix all problems during the next time.
We concentrate on improving the Lenya architecture and
can't keep all publications up to date.

The most interesting publications at the moment
are probably unipublic and docs-new. The default publication
will be the first one that uses the new architecture.
