Bootcamp, an open-source enterprise social network (opens in new tab)

I can tell you what it means to us at Fogbeam: It's just a Social Network that is tailored to included features that make it specifically useful inside an enterprise, as a way of sharing information / links / knowledge / whatever.

In our opinion, what distinguishes an "enterprise" social network from a "non enterprise" social network are things like:

1. LDAP/Active Directory support

2. Programmatic provisioning with an API

3. Support for integration with other enterprise applications via standard protocols. iCal / CalDAV for integration with calendaring servers / groupware, for example.

4. Etc.

it means that the network is meant to be used inside a company, to our developer team/systems analysts/testers interact about things that have to do with our work

like sharing an interesting link, a new library, sharing nice solutions, writing an article about how to use some new stuff on primefaces for example and so on

"Enterprise" can mean a lot of things, but I would expect: support for LDAP authentication and paid on-call technical support at a minimum. This project doesn't look "Enterprise" to me (yet).

Probably something like Yammer, but for your own intranet.

There's a debate over whether or not class-based views are a good idea to use. Discussion here: http://lukeplant.me.uk/blog/posts/djangos-cbvs-were-a-mistak...

actually im new on django hehe i will take a look on this project as it seem to be a interesting approach

yup! i will do that! for now, the link you found on the github repository is just for test purpose, so feel free to create an random account with a fake email account just to try it out :)

Try these:

  Username: a5035309
  Password: drdrb

oh! i have to update the readme ;)

actually as i used django framework (which is database agnostic), on my development env i use sqlite3 and on production im using postgresql

so you can pretty much use any database that django supports.

in fact, for a large scale usage postgresql would not be enough... but for using inside a company intranet, with a few users i think it is alright for now
