Thread: Techdocs v2 - status

Techdocs v2 - status

From
Richard Huxton
Date:
Justin/others

With the mention of techdocs-v2 and this plone package in the "Writers needed"
thread I wondered what the situation was with community-supplied docs.

Existing documents - should I
1. Move my stuff out of techdocs/guides?
2. Wait a bit

New documents
1. Point others to the site to add new documents
2. Add them myself for the moment
3. Wait a bit

I ask now because Matthew Nuzum has been kind enough to write up a brief howto
on using ssh to link Access via ODBC to PG on linux.

Well, Justin kind of jumped the gun with the whole plone thing, so I'd
ask that you just wait a couple days while I finish moving techdocs over
to the new VM.  After that we can hash out a game plan, as we've clearly
lost any sense of direction with the passing of the torch from justin to
josh to greg with justin now jumping back in and me trying to keep ahead
of them all...

I did wonder if I'd missed an announcement somewhere. I'll tell Matthew I'll
post his document for him once everything settles down.

Justin's just testing Plone.   Elein and I want to test Bricolage as well;
should we hold off on that?

If you're planning on installing it on a hub.org server this weekend then
absolutly.  Hopefully things will be at a point we can pretend is normal by
next week.

Hi Richard,

Well, now that the servers have been moved around and seem to be working again, it'd be cool if Matthew Nuzum's guide
couldbe added to the Techdocs site.  Josh  
was thinking of adding in the Bricolage content management system to the Techdocs site for testing, and the Plone
testingenvironment is already there presently. 

For us to figure out the best Content Management System for the "next generation" Techdocs site, we need people to get
involvedin using them. 

Perfect opportunity.  :)

Regards and best wishes,

Justin Clift
