I've been working with the prototype BLFS Wiki that Jeremy set up. I put an outline of the book on the wiki and have created a test version of the book at on anduin at http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/BlfsNotes
Specifically, I've added a section at the bottom of the page: http://anduin.linuxfromscratch.org/~bdubbs/blfs-book/postlfs/config.html#postlfs-config-bootdisk (sorry about the long url) If you click on the link in the User Notes section, it takes you to the wiki page. All book changes have been made to my sandbox only. Nothing has been committed. I'm looking for feedback. The following are the issues as I see them right now: 1. The section in the book is formatted as a <sect2>. I'm not sure this has the proper appearance. 2. I've modified (with Manuel's guidance) the stylesheets so that the added section only appears in the html output. It is suppresed in the pdf version of the book. Is this a good idea? 3. The wiki requires a login to update the page. How do we handle this? Do we allow anonymous logins? My thought is no. Do we provide a 'create login account' capability? If so, I'd like to see the ability to demand a valid email address similar to mailman. Do we manually create login accounts? This seems like s lot of work and would inhibit some users. What permissions do we provide non-editors? The available wiki permissions are: WIKI_VIEW View existing wiki pages WIKI_CREATE Create new wiki pages WIKI_MODIFY Change wiki pages WIKI_DELETE Delete wiki pages and attachments WIKI_ADMIN All WIKI_* permissions, plus the management of readonly pages. My initial thought here is WIKI_VIEW, WIKI_CREATE, and WIKI_MODIFY. Some pages, of course would be marked as read only.
