CodeShare is host to many projects. Open source projects and user groups encompass the majority of the projects on CodeShare and there has always been a common problem expressed with content management on CodeShare. This problem is that it is too complex. It shouldn't be necessary to be fluent in CSS, HTML and Subversion just to have a usable homepage that a project's users can benefit from. Thanks to the recent CodeShare upgrade, this problem is a thing of the past.

CodeShare was successfully upgrade on February 16th and with this upgrade comes new functionality to help solve the problem above. Most notable is the new wiki-like modification of project web content. The wiki-like modification of your web content is now provided via an embedded "What You See Is What You Get" (WYSIWYG) editor. Now you can modify your web content via your browser just like you would do using any good WYSIWYG editor on your local computer. Gone are the days where you have to checkout your project using Subversion just to update your project homepage. There is no need to use any external project tools to update your content. Now you have a simple way to update your project homepage and any other web content within your project workspace. To learn how to do this, view the How do I modify a project's web content? documentation.

I am planning on presenting this feature and more in an upcoming webinar. I will provide you with the webinar details when they have been fleshed out. Until then, feel free to browse the release notes for the new version of CodeShare's hosting software, CollabNet Enterprise Edition.

Take care,

Jeremy
