How do I use OSP Forms, Wizards, Matrices and Templates from this library in my instance of OSP?

The OSP tools allow you to import and export data structures into a zip file format. To import a zip file that you find in this library you need to download it from this web site, upload it into resources in an instance of Sakai and import the zip file from the appropriate tool. 

To import an OSP form: 

Example Form

Resource Type: 
OSP Form

This form includes several types of fields and may be useful to developers learning OSP.

What's the difference between a Matrix and a Wizard in OSPortfolio?

A matrix is a two-dimensional wizard. Really.

  • A hierarchical wizard is a tree-type structure of categories with nodes that lead to "wizard pages".
  • A sequential wizard is just a flat step-by-step sequence of "wizard pages".
  • A matrix is a row-and-column grid of cells, each of which takes you to a "wizard page".

That's it!

How to develop an OSPortfolio template

How do I develop a workflow for creating an XSL ePortfolio template inside Sakai and OSP?

This is a two-step process. First you'll need to get your hands on the XML that you'll be creating your XSL for (you do this by creating a pass-through template so you'll have the resulting XML to work with) Second, you can develop the XSL and your XPATH expressions on your local computer with minimal fuss.

How do I join the Sakai or OSPortfolio community?

Short version:

http://collab.sakaiproject.org/

Long version:

If you're tinkering with Sakai or its Electronic Portfolio "Open Source Portfolio (OSP)" you might have questions -- or you might find yourself wanting to contribute back to the community (documentation, quality-assurance testing, project management, java or XML coding...)
