Javier Candeira created COUCHDB-2350:
----------------------------------------

             Summary: Finish move of the wiki documentation; clean up 
references in docs.couchdb.org
                 Key: COUCHDB-2350
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-2350
             Project: CouchDB
          Issue Type: Improvement
      Security Level: public (Regular issues)
          Components: Documentation, Website
            Reporter: Javier Candeira


It occurs to me that as a new inductee into the project I'm in a privileged 
position to update and restructure the documentation as I take the project in, 
and it would probably be a better first task than to go after individual bugs.

This is how I'd go about working on restructuring the documentation:

- move the old wiki content to confluence and 301 all wiki.apache.org pages to 
the new wiki. No new content added. 
- track all links and references to old wiki in docs.couchdb.org, and rewrite 
them to point at new wiki. Still no new content added.
- then I would start triaging documentation bugs. There are many tasks that are 
better done by a newcomer, since we need to follow the documentation or be 
confused by it.

This is what I'd need:

- To be added to the confluence wiki contributors list (username: candeira)
- To be added to the old wiki contributors list (username: JavierCandeira)
- Optionally, to have a test confluence wiki so I can test migrating the old 
one to the new one via scripts without making public changes until bugs have 
been ironed out.
