Alex +1 on your efforts. You are doing so damn much for the community! This absolute highly appreciated. Thank you!
But I would really like to see also others to take part in the migration. A lot of answers in IRC or the mailing lists refer to the wiki and the docs. So imho it is also the community's responsibility to help. And yeah - it's not a dream job. But the more people help, the faster it is done and the faster we have better, fresher, nicer documentation resources. So I friendly ask the community to help here. These are your docs :) Cheers Andy On 27 March 2014 17:26, Alexander Shorin <kxe...@gmail.com> wrote: > Personally, I have this in my TODO, but still couldn't have a chance > to get into.
