A new eyeOS 1.x User Manual

Friday, May 28th, 2010

During the last months we’ve been focused on eyeOS 2.x. However, the support for eyeOS 1.x has not ended and there are thousands of alive 1.x servers around the world. Some community members are still working on the 1.x branch fixing bugs and creating new documentation. We’re happy to present the new User Manual created by Pascal Lebas, Sable, from the eyeOS french community.

There are two versions which will be maintained separately. Sable realized that information concerning administrators is not useful for an end user, who needs a lightest manual. The two available versions are:

  • Version 1.10.4a, for eyeOS administartors
  • Version 1.10.4u, for eyeOS end users

Version numbers

On the version numbers, you can check which version is your manual with some easy help:

  • The first digit corresponds to the branch (version) of eyeOS (eyeOS 2 manuals will begin with “2″)
  • The second number represents the edition year (here, “10″ for 2010)
  • The third digit is the month when the manual was written(here, “4″ for April)
  • The last letter identifies the version, it is: “a” for administrator and “u” for user

Downloads

In order to facilitate the use of this manuals we want to give you the possibility to download the manual in different formats: pdf, epub and digital publication.

User Manual
version 1.10.4a – Admin

 …….

User Manual
version 1.10.4u – User


But, the manual is not in my language!

Now the User Manual is only in french, but to have it translated in your language is easy! You can download the ODT document, translate it and share with all the eyeOS community members! We will add a new section on eyeOS website with all the documentation. Questions? Please, send an email to translate@eyeos.org

Note that the manual is under a Creative Commons License BY-NC-ND 3.0.

Stay tuned for more news!

Presenting the e-Dibam platform

Tuesday, May 25th, 2010

We are glad to present e-Dibam, the first e-government platform deployed by eyeOS for the Barcelona Provincial Council which will used for more than 170 councils in Catalonia. The platform allows the users to work on the cloud using content management systems, documental management, procedures and web integred services.

The pilot program has already started on 20 councils and will last until December 2011. As the  deputy delegate for the knowledge society of the Provincial Council, Ezequiel Martinez, explained on the presentation, “the Council gives to this project, a determined step towards e-government in the municipalities of Barcelona and promotes the modernization of local councils”. In fact “the challenge is to change the mentality of people,”  ventured Martinez. This project can be an historical and pioneer event in Spain in local government: that all procedures can be made via the Internet.

With e-Dibam, eyeOS is placed as a reference and trend technological modernization on the public administration sector in Catalonia and throughout Spain. And this is thanks to create an Open Source technology which is starting to grow in different markets, also in public administrations.

This award represents the hard work done during the last year, which will end with the publication of the final version of eyeOS 2.0.

The purpose of the BDigital Award for Digital Innovation is fostering innovative ideas and projects with a clear technological application, based upon results generated at companies, technological centres and universities, and innovative products and services, developed or under development, designed for encouraging an industrial use of the results and/or technology generated within the society of information and the digital world.

We want (once again) to thanks all the commnuity for it’s effort, and as usual we want to share the award with all the community. This time we’ll do this in a very special way we’ll be announcing soon. Thank you!
