[lively-kernel] newbie - "Cannot serialize old model object" problem

[Jens Lincke]

Hi Davide,

Thanks for your interest in Lively. And I am sorry for your initial experiences...

The places you started from are pretty much outdated. Our current development happens here:

http://www.lively-kernel.org/repository/webwerkstatt/

we know about the problems of saving the old example page (index.XHTML) but we planed to throw that parts away, so we did not fix that.

You can edit in the webwerkstatt or copy pages from there as you like. For writing you have to register first:
http://www.lively-kernel.org/trac/register

there is a good overview page missing, since we did not have time to write it or nobody asked the right questions. So perhaps try these...

http://www.lively-kernel.org/repository/webwerkstatt/documentation/GettingStarted.xhtml
http://www.lively-kernel.org/repository/webwerkstatt/documentation/ScriptingTutorial.xhtml

Best,

Jens
