I was planning to commit some of the outstanding documentation patches, e.g. DERBY-1548, but I realised I have no idea how to do this. Looking at the download site there's no mention of the documentation source code: http://db.apache.org/derby/derby_downloads.html#Derby+source+code I couldn't see anything in the wiki on how to download the svn source for the documentation, build it (? I know it needs DITA, but that's about all I know), and test it. Seems like we could get documentation patches in quicker if all the committers could handle them, rather than the the two or three who submit these patches today. Let's scale with the size of the community. Is there a write-up somewhere on how to do this?
There is this page, which should describe most of what you need: http://db.apache.org/derby/manuals/dita.html It's hiding in the drop-down box off the left when you click the Documentation tab as "DITA source". I think a link from the main documentation page might help make this easier to find. andrew
