Documentation about AppScript and ModScript (Serena) - vbscript

I'm currently working for a bank as an analyst developper. The bank uses SBM from Serena (recently buy back by Micro Focus). The problem is that the scripts are coded in AppScript (VBScript 4.0) and in ModScript (ChaiScript/C++) and I can't find any documentations on the Internet about those two. The only things I found was on the forum of Serena...
Either I look bad, or those languages are not well known.
Maybe someone here got some doc ? Would help me a lot !
I thank you already for the help you will bring me !
PS: Sorry for my english, it's not my native language.

Documentation for Modscript and Appscript can be found online through the Documentation portal for MicroFocus/Serena.
Specifically the Composer help guide covers alot of ground for the scripting languages this is the latest version's guide (11.5) http://help.serena.com/doc_center/sbm/ver11_5/composer/help.html
However, you can switch versions and find plenty of documentation here:
http://help.serena.com/doc_center/doc_center.html#sbm
Additionally there is community dedicated to the Serena-owned products at http://serenacentral.com

Read Aloud EPUB3 Authoring Tools

I am trying to add the read-aloud feature to my children's books to help the children to read. I have tried many tools, CircularFlo, PubCoder, Kotobee, etc.
The EPUB3 generated with CircularFlo and PubCoder work perfectly with the read-aloud feature on Apple Books but not Google Books. I spoke to CircularFlo tech team online and know that the software doesn't support Google Books yet.
I spent many days looking into different app but have had no luck on that. Does anybody have any authoring tools to recommend?
The read-aloud book should allow to use author's own narration and have the word highlighted when it is being read. For example, please refer to this eBook on Google Play Books.
Any helps or suggestions given is much appreciated.
Thanks,

How to learn joomla 1.5?

I'm a web designer and so I learnt everything essential needed for designers and now I can design the websites using joomla.
But I want to move myself to programmer. I have very basic knowledge of php and mysql. I wanted to know how can I enter into development with joomla.
Joomla has been very popular in the world but also it has not implemented so much effort for the users. It is providing a tutorial but randomly, so I'm confused how to start. There is no any sites step by step tutorials for joomla.
So, anyone please help me how to start on the topics. Could anyone provide a lists what to learn as to become a developer of joomla?
Well first of all, you need to know about the versions.
There are 2 types of Joomla releases. Long Term (Joomla 1.5 and 2.5) and Short Term (Joomla 3.x)
Joomla 1.5 is old and unsupported now so there is no need to look into it.
If you want to start developing for Joomla, then you simply need to read up on the documentation and start messing around with pre-made extensions. You will also need to do research on how MVC works if you are not already familiar with it.
Hope this helps
you can get help from a nice book such as Joomla! Programming

need help to get started with bugzilla

I have been searching for hours for a tutorial that would clearly explain how to install and start to use bugzilla on windows 7. All tutorials I found didn't help me: links are invalid, uses old versions or tells me to modify file that doesn't exist on my system. Could anyone guide me where to search for more clear step by step information about how to start working with bugzilla? Any help would be appreciated
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Bugzilla:Win32Install is a good description of installing Bugzilla, Apache and MySQL on Win32 platforms.
If you're looking to use IIS instead of Apache this may help
http://lpsolit.wordpress.com/2010/10/22/make-bugzilla-work-with-iis7-easy/
Bugzilla is provided by volunteers, so while it's unfortunate that no one has written an up-to-date document on how to do what you want, it also reflects that there are very few people who are trying to do the same thing.
Your best course of action depends on whether you're willing to pay for support. If you are willing to pay someone to help you, you might consult this list:
http://www.bugzilla.org/support/consulting.html
If you're not willing to pay for support, there are some approaches described here:
http://www.bugzilla.org/support/
You can always create a bug here to report that the available documentation isn't current:

Joomla 1.6 Component Tutorial

Aside from the HelloWorld Tutorial, are there any other tutorials/books available with regards to component development on Joomla 1.6 ?
Although the HelloWorld guides the user through chapters/steps, it doesn't exactly explain what certain code or function does. I'm at Part 14, and I'm at a complete lost.
Really appreciate if someone could point me to some other tutorial sites or books to purchase..
Try the Joomla Programming book by Mark Dexter, I am not sure whether its available yet.
http://www.amazon.com/Joomla-Programming-Press-Mark-Dexter/dp/013278081X
you can see the preview here: http://my.safaribooksonline.com/book/web-development/joomla/9780132780841/components-part-ii-views-jform-and-front-end/ch08#X2ludGVybmFsX0ZsYXNoUmVhZGVyP3htbGlkPTk3ODAxMzI3ODA4NDEvMjE0
Kyle,
Documentation supporting Joomla 1.6 is lacking at this time from what I've seen. Your best bet might be http://learn.theartofjoomla.com/version-16-development.html.
This set of tutorials is exactly what is needed to really learn the new classes in 1.6. Unfortunately, they only take you so for to date. Other videos are forthcoming according to Andrew Eddie.
I now of no other tutorial that will, at this time, take you completely through the process with thorough explanations.

Is there a Wiki with a Web 2.0 UI (like StackOverflow's)?

I need to use MediaWiki at work. It used to be okay, but with sites s.a. StackOverflow, there's some user interface issues that simply don't do any more.
Most importantly, I'd want to see the live preview when typing. There shouldn't be need for a preview mode.
What Wikis are you using? Which would be the best for a recent (easy) Web experience?
Can MediaWiki be updated to have more recent UI behaviour?
Addendum:
Two products seem to be above others, both "open source commercial" (= you get a skinny version free, standard and enterprise levels with more goodies cost).
MindTouch DekiWiki
Confluence
Judge for yourself. I sure found my liking in one of these. :)
There is a WYSIWYG extension for mediawiki. See Fckeditor:
Well there is StackExchange (which is the StackOverflow engine), but you have to pay for it.
A discussion on Confluence vs Mediawiki: http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DISC/Confluence+Vs+Mediawiki
It doesn't have the preview feature you talk about, but you asked for "favorite wikis", so here's mine (at least favorite for ease of use/setup):
