Hi all,
I have not read the entire thread yet but as always, there are good
ideas :)
Perhaps it would be a good idea to read the thread throughly ? (the
"wiki usage" oriented part of the thread)
What has been done since you started the thread is only creating a new
page indended as index/hub for the marketing part of the wiki. Chad
placed some links in there as a start, but it is, of course not over yet.
Nothing else has been done as we should first decide how exactly are we
going to better put it to use. Dangers have been highlited as reason for
having a bit more patinece (few days ?) and first participate in a
process of planning.
MORE: The wiki was untill now used mostly by developers. It is possible
that we will create a whole Section in it for MP - afaik like a separate
site or something ? I'll have to discuss that with admins but for this
we'll have to wait some days as Stefan is out of town.
A suggestion: If you already registered with the wiki you could use for
now the page under your user name to write down (draft) things you want
to discuss. You can describe there how you see the MP wiki, proposed
changes, as well as other other items you find important.
This way you can reference its URL in discussions and we can afterwards
also copy/move in the MP wiki once we have set a basic structure for it.
What do you think ?
My question last week: how many times can a skilled volunteer say he
wants to help out? Or should I start where I started 22 years ago?
The answer right now:
So this is what I *want* to do for MP if the MP *lets* me do it:
AGAIN: For the wiki case it is not about letting you or not. It is about
planning and coordinating with future needs in mind. Starting to write
right away by everybody without a collective effort to organize things
first will make us need another wiki or site in a few months. :)
And we have not seen yet input from other contributors and especially
the leads as it is still weekend.
- change the MP wiki to be usefull because the idea gets a lot of support.
What changes do you mean ? Can you describe ?
- start a discussion on the items I find fundamental for the succes of
OOo marketing one by one and get a consencus. I will drop the effort on
a posted item if the discussion goes viral or back to fundamentals on
infrastructure. (because I want to change it and I will do so starting
with the marketing wiki.)
Now I want to know how to change the wiki (not the content, the wiki). :)
What do you mean ? Changing sections ? Appearance ? The software ?
I do not know yet how the wiki was configured in therms of liberty to
change anything. I know one can create new pages, etc. For the rest of
it we'll have to wait untill Stefan gets back. Meantime can you give us
more details on what do you intend to do ? As I said above here on the
list (under *another thread* please) or if you preffer the wiki: in your
personal page of the wiki for now ?
Thanks for willing to contribute!
Best,
Cristian
