Shawn Heisey commented on SOLR-12930:
-------------------------------------

bq. The idea of a single file was about taking all those smaller files we write 
and publishing them as a single HTML page that is the thing make public

If the overall guide's size and organizational strategy will generate a useful 
document as a single published page, whether it's multiple source files or a 
single file, then I'm all for it.  I suspect that as the dev guide evolves and 
grows, eventually it will work better as a handful of pages ... but I could be 
completely wrong about that.  Your point about the need for navigation when 
there are multiple pages is spot on.

bq. The basic infrastructure I created in my small example project 

Slightly ashamed to admit that I haven't actually looked at it.  A bit 
overwhelmed with real-world happenings, so I am skimming things that I should 
probably be studying in-depth.

bq. There's a little bit of complexity there in terms of changing our usual 
workflows, but maybe that's worth it

Which if I'm not mistaken is the gist of the effort that 
[~markrmil...@gmail.com] is trying to spearhead.  I think everyone is more or 
less on the same page.  I am encouraged when discussions reveal a rough 
consensus for a reasonably clear path forward.

bq. The Gitbox transition is interesting in this context.

Digesting that and trying to think ahead to possible gotchas and benefits 
(challenging when my knowledge is incomplete), I had a slight worry that the 
"issues" section of github would become a distraction.  I found that the 
apache/lucene-solr mirror currently on github doesn't have that feature turned 
on, so the link isn't even there.  I have in mind a small change to README.md 
for clarification purposes on issue tracking -- noting that the omission of 
"issues" in github is intentional because we use Apache Jira for that.  If I 
can find a moment to whip up a patch, I'll attach it here.  One thing I wonder 
is whether we can have github show the "issues" link, but instead of having the 
feature actually activated, have the link go to a page (markdown?) about Jira.


> Add great developer documentation for writing tests.
