Hi all - I believe a decision was taken to have both Fineract and the new Fineract-CN on the same confluence pages and on the same listserv. Unless we can get a new Fineract-CN namespace on the apache confluence established, this means that we will have pages showing up in various places for Fineract-CN and discussions on this list also covering both code bases.
My first suggestion - after watching the email traffic for a few months - is to include in emails and the documentation pages a tag of either [Fineract-1.x] or [Fineract-CN]. This may be best in the header or merely somewhere in the top of the message so that it is searchable. This is already occurring in the ticketing on jira, right? My second suggestion is to restructure the pages on https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FINERACT. I think we should create a structure where Fineract-1.x and Fineract-CN are top level entries and then all of the content follows as children of those. I'd be happy to try to work on that. It means almost everything must be moved one level deeper, but I think that will help given that this is a rather large architectural departure. That said, I know there are a few things that are shared at the top, i.e. https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FINERACT/Committer%27s+Zone and much of Contributor Zone. If we don't do this, then I believe we need to tag pages carefully and to have notes saying "this is Fineract-1.x or Fineract-CN" throughout. Right now we have Fineract-CN entries showing up in various places on the pages and I suspect more will come as we develop that further. To anticipate - yes, most of the content is under the page https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FINERACT/Fineract+CN but not all, and in any case, having this be a secondary level where everything else is Fineract-1.x is confusing. Lastly, I do believe we should try to have the authoritative fineract and fineract-CN documentation be sufficient and complete, and therefore a place where others will link to. Thanks, James
