## Design
## Todo
-* git push (scripts-git, or gitosis on an XVM)
* make style usable for other SIPB sites?
* make title == alt on images
* sipb-door widgets
* other widgets
-* migrate sipb.mit.edu/doc
* usability tests
-* table of contents doesn't work
### Done
+* table of contents doesn't work. Likely to do with the co-opting of h1
+exclusively for breadcrumbs ...
+* migrate sipb.mit.edu/doc
+* git push (scripts-git, or gitosis on an XVM)
* commit zephyrs for git (ikiwiki.git)
* breadcrumbs style
* add a grumpy fuzzball favicon to replace the ikiwiki one.
## How Things Work
-(this is by fawkes's understanding, it may be wrong)
###When a request comes in:
a connection comes in for sipb.mit.edu which via a hack in MIT DNS gets directed instead to PENGUIN-LUST.MIT.EDU. If its on ports 80, (443?), or 444 it gets passed off to scripts (where it's handled by b-m or b-k, whichever).
###For development's sake:
-####How Do I make edits?
+####How do I make edits?
If you want to just edit contents, use the web interface (edit links at bottom of page) or "git clone git+ssh://sipb-www@scripts.mit.edu/mit/sipb-www/git/wiki", make your edits in the mdwn, etc.
When you commit, ikiwiki should get automatically republished as HTML.
$ cd sipb-www
$ git submodule update --init
+You can also clone directly from the filesystem if you have AFS permission. If you want a preview of your pages to be generated locally, you can use the generate-preview.sh script in the superrepo:
+
+ $ git clone /mit/sipb-www/git/sipb-www
+ $ cd sipb-www
+ $ git submodule update --init
+ $ # make changes here
+ $ mkdir /tmp/sipb-out
+ $ ./generate-preview.sh /tmp/sipb-out
+ $ firefox /tmp/sipb-out/index.html
+
