Oscailt is an independent media centre content management system
developed by the Indymedia Ireland Tech Group, and written using PHP and MySql.
The word "Oscailt" is an Irish word meaning "open" and is pronounced kind of like us-kilt
or us-cult or us-culch depending upon your accent.
Documentation
Some early Oscailt's documentation is held on wiki.
Here you can find basic details on Oscailt's main features, how to install it, and other information.
On SourceForge a more comphrehensive up-todate feature list is maintained including release notes from previous releases.
There is also some design documentation on Oscailt available on sourceforget.net under the heading Oscailt design documentation 1.0 released
Download
Oscailt is freely available to use and download under the terms of the GPL.
To download the latest version go to the Oscailt Project Page on SourceForge.
Developers
Oscailt is a continually evolving codebase and all contributions are welcome. CVS
access to the codebase is available at the Sourceforge.net
All discussion concerning Oscailt takes place on the Oscailt Mailing List.
Please subscribe if you wish to play a part in Oscailt's future development.
Bear in mind when submitting code that the primary focus of Oscailt is to serve the needs
of Indymedia Ireland and this will be the primary factor in deciding whether to integrate submitted
code. That said, the needs of Indymedia Ireland probably overlap a great deal
with the needs of other independent media centres, so the code should be generally useful.
And even then, as the code is open source you are free to create and maintain your
own derivative branch if you so wish.
