Hi, I want to develop a site with the features similar to SharePoint but without using any SharePoint services.
Please advise me which are the tools I have to use to achieve this.
The alternative should be free and customizable.
Thanks.

If your question is: What is an alternative to sharepoint? then one answer would be "alfresco". Although I'm not a fan of Alfresco as a user, it has many features similar to sharepoint: different accessing methods for shared files (WebDAV, HTTP, FTP, SMB), authorization groups and file versioning / history.
Of course it lacks the tight office integration of Sharepoint.
Edit: I'm not a fan of Sharepoint either.

Depends on what you want to with SharePoint. If you are only using 1 functionality you probably have tons of alternatives. (Wordpress, wikipedia, Drupal,..). All with their own pro's and cons.
If you want the complete package. Collaboration , search, publishing, wiki, blog, office integration, etc... The choices are limited. I'm not a great fan of DotNetNuke but it's one possibility. More in the Java camp you find Alfresco.

Have a look here,

And there are some alternatives in this thread as well Open Source SharePoint?

I am trying to learn web development and I did take some Django courses. I would like to know is there some kind of "Frontend Designer" (some think similar to wordpress) that can create templates like html etc. which are easy to use for Django developer? Or are there some kind of "Frontend Designer" that are more optimized for Django?
Many many thank in advance.
You can use Django as a backend for Apis and I would highly recommend using Frontend framework/Library like React/Vue.
I know you want an easy solution for frontend like WordPress (drag & drop ) but I don't think there is such a thing which you can customize with liberty and according to your ease and have your full control over it.
Plus, there are tons of themes and components available for React/Vue Or these libraries have a strong community.
Alternate,
You can use simple HTML with bootstrap, jquery.
They too have tons of themes available.

Does anyone know some site where I can find information about autonomy??
I'm looking after code samples, architecture posts, and things like that, both about
autonomy IDOL search engine
autonomy interwoven content management server
side note:
I cannot understand why there're so many barriers to access theese product's developer resources. I thought that HP would change autonomy's policy about this but It stills the same: there's absolutely NO access to libraries, code samples, etc... you're forced to have a partner account...
If I could I'd move to opener alternatives... but it's not completly in my hand ;-(
There is little public information available about Autonomy's products.
The best way forward is to build your own network of people who know the product and have had experience with implementations.
The information that is shipped with the product can also help. Specifically regarding the Autonomy IDOL server and the calls you can make - some resources
The IDOL Administrator manual: Probably the most complete document available. It will help you understand the components which make up an IDOL architecture. However, it will not go into too much detail on complex architectures.
The Online Help: (http://:/a=help) Most components have an online help which documents all the calls and parameters.
The GRL: (http://:/a=grl) Gives you the most recent commands sent to a component. The best way to 'reverse engineer' how to components are interacting with each other.
I found that most active discussions regarding Autonomy's product suite can be found here.

On a few questions this package was recommended to provide Django with OpenAuth capabilities.
I'm new to Django and as one of my first projects, I'm trying to replicate StackOverflow's login and registration mechanisms. the only two documents that relate to the usability and installation of the package are the README and openid.txt files. edit I forgot to mention the example in their code base /endedit
I implemented what the files and example implemented, but so far I still feel lost in terms of actually understanding how the mechanism works and how to build a site with openauth-id integration.
The questions I have involve:
Best practice way to include multiple openID providers
Proper way to connect the to the Django-user models
Handling any security, privacy, etc issues that may arise
I have put up an example of using django-openid-auth with openid-selector(http://code.google.com/p/openid-selector/) for a nice UI on github. See if this helps.
https://github.com/rajasaur/openid_userprofiles
If something is not clear from the examples, please ask and Id be more than happy to help
Imho:
You need to include each ID provider in a separate Authentication backend.
Bast practice is also to use build in User model.
Look for example plugin that provides multiple authentication providers
django-social_auth at github.
Hope that will help...

What's an advisable way of documenting and sharing APIs (e.g. HTTP web-services)?
The requirements are:
A Wiki type system in which anyone can edit any page.
An easy way to write an API spec so that the styling/formatting is applied automatically, rather than having to manually add the styling for each individual page.
I would use Wordpress, except that it's not really a Wiki system; it's more of a blog engine. I want a nice, clean, structured hierarchy of pages, and the ability to click and edit instantly.
I tried Google Sites, but this also seems to be unsuitable, because it doesn't allow me to create a consistent style for APIs. The only control I have over styling is "themes", which change the look & feel of the whole site, and aren't specific enough.
I found a hosted solution here, but at $499 p/year I'm sure we can do better.
Any suggestions?
Many projects use trac. Here is an example of a project that uses it http://djangobb.org/wiki
Trac integrates together wiki, issue tracking and source control.
Might consider using something like doxygen to generate an inital snapshot and then just wikify that.
A similar question was posted here also: Wiki solution for APIs documentations?
and I suggested using MindTouch
**jonathan, just saw your comment about trac adding too much complexity. you'll likely find the same with MindTouch, but that's because you're asking for a solution to a specific problem, and the suitable tools available offer much more capabilities (ie complexities)

I'm trying to get accurate download numbers for some files on a web server. I look at the user agents and some are clearly bots or web crawlers, but many for many I'm not sure, they may or may not be a web crawler and they are causing many downloads so it's important for me to know.
Is there somewhere a list of know web crawlers with some documentation like user agent, IPs, behavior, etc?
I'm not interested in the official ones, like Google's, Yahoo's, or Microsoft's. Those are generally well behaved and self-indentified.
I'm using http://www.user-agents.org/ usually as reference, hope this helps you out.
You can also try http://www.robotstxt.org/db.html or http://www.botsvsbrowsers.com.
I'm maintaining a list of crawler's user-agent patterns at https://github.com/monperrus/crawler-user-agents/.
It's collaborative, you can contribute to it with pull requests.
http://www.robotstxt.org/db.html is a good place to start. They have an automatable raw feed if you need that too. http://www.botsvsbrowsers.com/ is also helpful.
Unfortunately we've found that bot activity is too numerous and varied to be able to accurately filter it. If you want accurate download counts, your best bet is to require javascript to trigger the download. That's basically the only thing that is going to reliably filter out the bots. It's also why all site traffic analytics engines these days are javascript based.
