Most of the kinks in the new comment system have now been sorted, as has most of the question on the actual implementation of it. However, a few questions remain, that I'd like some input on if possible:
- Should we keep the various translations separate, or should it be one unified commentary? i.e. should the French pages separate comments from the English pages, or should they all just roll with the same comments? We could insist that all comments be made in English unless they are related to a specific translations, and as long as we keep the translations up to date with the suggestions and delete comments as they are implemented, there shouldn't be much clutter. - When this moves to 2.4 and possibly 2.2, should we keep each branch separate, or should we unify it? That is, should f.x. core.html show the same comments for 2.2, 2.4 and trunk combined, or should they be kept separate? I'm leaning towards the latter myself, as a lot of pages really have changed quite a bit, and it'd become confusing if someone is suddenly commenting on a 2.2 issue and it shows up in the 2.4 docs. Any input would be greatly appreciated. With regards, Daniel.
