Javier Candeira commented on COUCHDB-2350:
------------------------------------------
Hi Joan, thanks for the quick reply. Sure, I don't want to be a bull in a china
shop. It's just that the particular pages I was looking at happened to be
un-updated:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/COUCHDB/Ubuntu
https://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/Installing_on_Ubuntu
In this particular instance, Precise is a LTS still used in production in a
shop I work at, so it's not old or outdated information.
I'm writing to the mailing list with my plan beyond this issue, and I'll make
sure I chat with Andy.
> 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.
