Help Testing PDO Database Support
Have you ever wanted to run XOOPS on something apart from MySQL?
I have been doing some research since the start of this forum post and have fitted now the PDO to XOOPS 2.5 Beta.
This is right now just a research project for possible inclusion with 2.6 series, but I need some help with testing as a lot of these database systems are quiet expensive.. There is support for Postgres, Oracle, Sybase, ADO, ODBC, MS SQL, MSDE and many others like interbase and it GNU counterpart firebird.
This archive contains all the changed files for testing.. I need help testing this as much as possible.. There is no reason for it to not work unless there is some reserved word or microsoft problem with pivoting MySQL files to xoops.. Of course you can include the needed files as well, but it will attempt to pivot on mYql files if it can't find a SQL file for the selected database type..
Download 2.5.0 Beta with PDO from my Skydriver spot.

Looking for Members - Documentation Team
I am looking at forming a team for documenting the Modules Team and the Core Teams changes in the wiki and to go through the forum and find discussion topics to turn help sheets and guidances manuals.
I am looking for anyone with a Technical Writing background that wants to contribute to XOOPS under my team management to document the XOOPS Core, XOOPS Modules & XOOPS Hacks.
Part of what makes a good product is the team behind explaining how to use it.. XOOPS is no exception. With most books on XOOPS in other languages apart from English there is a need for documenting to be concise and easy to form.
Ideally I am looking for a team of 10 people.. Both male and female and the role comes with training and support references material.. I am looking to change my role at XOOPS from the core under-write to documentation manager.
You can contact me about this by the following way:
IF you don't have 8 - 15 hours a fortnight to dedicate to documenting XOOPS then please do not apply, there are no age restrictions and some young guns would be good.
I have noticed with the younger crowd here at XOOPS they feel that there age is a hindrance on getting involved, if you are between the ages of 16 to 65 these are ideal ages to sign up and get motivated -- so please write me an email attach your resume if you have one (This is voluntary/charity role) and send it to your senior XOOPS Developer.
You need to have at least a written language in english (other languages desirable for translating) and need to have medium to advance technical writing skills.

Improving XOOPS Code: PHP CodeSniffer
Obviously, everybody has a different coding styles, but in order to make it easier for everybody to read it, we need to follow certain "Coding Standards".
The current XOOPS Coding Standards are here
But how to make sure that everybody does it correctly, and there are no mistakes?
Here comes the PHP CodeSniffer, which we'll use going forward before each release.
We would also like every developer contributing code to XOOPS (be it to Core, or as individual modules) to check his/her work before submitting to SVN!
1) Install CodeSniffer:
If you're using WAMP, here are instructions to install PEAR, and then CodeSniffer:
http://www.webeks.net/programming/wamp-pear-installation.html
NOTE: there are currently problems with installing PEAR on PHP 5.3:
2) Set Zend as your default:
3) Run CodeSniffer
See:
http://pear.php.net/manual/en/package.php.php-codesniffer.usage.php
I didn't compare the Zend standard with ours, but since our is based on Zend, then they should be very similar. If there are differences, we'll create our own customized standard file, based on our "XOOPS Coding Standards", as described here:
http://clockwerx.blogspot.com/2008/06/how-to-customise-phpcodesniffer.html
As we are moving forward it's important that we start using more and more tools that will help us with improving our code and our development process.
As next, I am looking at "PHP Under Control"
Has anybody any experience with it?
