[Xerte] Wiki

[RonM]

Hi Julian

Apologies for not responding sooner - was delivering Toolkits training all
day yesterday.

 

When we were discussing the use of a wiki off-list recently I was thinking
that would be for developing the spec for the support material rather than
the actual support material. But as has been suggested subsequently an
installation of MediaWiki might do both
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki as an example a lot of the moodle
documentation is provided via MediaWiki http://docs.moodle.org/en/Main_Page

I think there needs to be documentation for people developing the software,
and documentation for people using the software. It could be in the same
place, or in different places as the two groups will have quite different
requirements. Googlecode happened to have a convenient wiki which is what
Pat has started to use today. Sourceforge have also just approved my project
request, so now is a good time for us to decide google code or sourceforge
once and for all. I might set up a project on soirceforge anyway adn then we
can vote or something. You can see the google code pages already. I like the
simplicity a lot - it fits well with our FWS design principles for the
software itself.

 

Mark - how would we add users to the wiki you set up? That (or something
similar) should probably host the bulk of the user docs, and be the one
place for info on using Xerte in its various forms. I would love it if
someone were to step forward and take on managing that space.

 

We have several people primed to start creating documentation and I'm keen
it doesn't become fragmented. 

 

Alistair and Ron: would a wiki meet your needs? wiki.xerte.net in
particular.

10 repositories.

 

1 for those that speak binary, 1 for those that don't - or grom my take so
far on the installs of XOT, we have the sysadmin types who would want the
scope to do whatever they wanted, and the dabblers who want something a
little more light.

Totally your call, but I'm not sure about the facility of splitting
locations...
