Thread: Projects moved to gborg
Has anyone figured out how we are going to handle the SGML documentation of projects moved to gborg? -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073

Clearly we gotta remove 'em from the main docs.

And a bigger question is that are we going to do after we move the SGML files? The thought of making SGML builds of all those interfaces makes me ill. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073
Can it not be automated?

No idea. I doubt most maintainers are going to have the stamina to set up a SGML build environment. I wonder if can somehow autobuild them on gborg or convert them to HTML and let the people maintain them in HTML. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Marc G.

I think that would work, but how does the HTML fit in the CVS? Does it get checked in automatically? -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073

Well, probably the best example right now is libpqpp project ... I believe Bruce has extracted the documentation for those from the core pgsql distribution and put them onto the gborg project ... what he's looking at is being able to take those docs and generating html from them, so that docs can stay in sgml format ... *but* ...

Some documentation, such as PgAccess and ODBC wasn't very up-to-speed anyway and could probably be eliminated altogether. For libpq++ we just copy a few files to set up the required build environment. (We're going to have to do that anyway -- how does libpq++ manage the shared library build right now?) -- Peter Eisentraut peter_e@gmx.net

I'm not sure if I know exactly what you are looking for here? As it stands now project admins can maintain html pages for their project called genpages. This could be something that could be used. Let me know what it is you would like to be able to do and I'll see what I can come up with. Chris R. --- "Marc G.
