OnRamp is a content management and distribution system that facilitates re-use of content in multiple contexts.  [http://dev-repo.library.uq.edu.au/wiki/index.php/Main_Page Fez Software], an open source institutional respository developed at the University of Queensland, along with a few enhancements serves as the content management system.  [[Community:OnFire|OnFire]] is an NCore project that extends Fez to add a distribution system for the content stored in OnRamp.  Together Fez and OnFire make up the OnRamp system.

* Podcast List - used by Beyond Penguins and Polar Bears eZine to create a list of podcasts
* Web Seminar - used by NSDL.org to get a list of web seminars
* website2m - two menu level website used by NCore's main website

=== Current Work in Progress ===

* Versioning - Expand Fez Software system to include a facility for versioning content within the Fedora repositoy that serves as the Fez datastore.  Users with appropriate privileges will be able to view previous versions.

* Photo Gallery - Exploring using Gallery 2 UI for viewing photos being driven by an RSS feed from an OnRamp Photo Gallery destination.  The RSS will provide information about photos stored in records within the OnRamp system.
 
=== Get Involved ===

This project is currently in beta for its first release of the OnFire extension.  We'd love to hear about your ideas for new destination templates, new features, and any other suggestions.  Our current list of planned features is fairly long, but we'll add your ideas to the list too.

=== Examples and Demos in Use ===
* [[Image:Bppb logo sm.jpg|Beyond Penguins and Polar Bears]] [http://beyondpenguins.nsdl.org/ Beyond Penguins and Polar Bears eZine] - Twenty thematic issues of an online magazine which include standards-based science and content-rich literacy learning on the polar regions.  OnRamp is used to store the text and images seen on the website.  Content is distributed to an agnostic webapp through the OnFire extension.
* [[Image:Wbr logo sm.gif|White Board Report]] [http://content.nsdl.org/wbr/Issue.php White Board Report] - Monthly issues delivering research news and notes from the National Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics and Education Digital Library (NSDL) Program.  The content of each item in the report is stored in records in OnRamp.  An RSS feed summarizing each item in an issue is generated by the OnFire extension and used by [http://nsdl.org NSDL.org] to display the report.
* [[Image:NCore Logo sm.jpg|NCore website]] [http://ncore.nsdl.org/ NCore website] - The main website for NCore is generated based on information and images stored in OnRamp.  An RSS feed generated by the OnFire extension drives the webapp's structure and content.
