Garage:PressReport

The Press Report tool is a url and publishing database linked to the IRC channel of La Quadrature du Net.

Description
It works like this :


 * URL may be posted by any relevant program (for now, an IRC bot called Wantzel)
 * URL may be noted up or down through the IRC channel or the web interface
 * Screenshots of the URL are done automatically using firefox and vncsnapshot on a remote server
 * A button allows anyone with publishing access to the drupal to publish a new drupal node with the title, source media, url, screenshot, and extract of the article
 * The /rp and drupal zones are protected by 2 different accounts.

Resources

 * Repository : svn://svn.laquadrature.net/rp
 * It is written in PHP using a MySQL database.

Roadmap

 * add the ability/fork the tool to submit quotes (irc "!quote "blablabla" author http://source.url")
 * package for release and reuse
