Hi all-

I am new to this, so please bear with me. I was researching oVirt, looking for 
information on "developer guidelines," and I found some, but they weren't all 
connected or linked iin from the same page.

I think I can fix that (and I've been given wiki permissions), but I want to 
make sure I'm not doing something really stupid before I do.

What I think should happen is that this page:

http://www.ovirt.org/Backend_Coding_Standards

should have links to the following pages on it:
* http://www.ovirt.org/Vdsm_Coding_Guidelines
* http://www.ovirt.org/Infra_Bash_style_guide
* http://www.ovirt.org/Community_guidelines#Code_submission_guidelines
* http://www.ovirt.org/Building_oVirt_Engine/IDE --> see section about engine and 
Checkstyle: "Make sure that you import the engine code formatter into eclipse before 
starting development. The engine maven build uses checkstyle to check coding standards. One 
of the standards checked is that the code should not contain tabs or trailing whitespaces. 
Since eclipse inserts tabs by default for code formatting, you can end up with a lot of 
compilation errors in command line maven build if you don't follow this (and the next) 
step."

And this page: http://www.ovirt.org/DevProcess  should have a link to
http://www.ovirt.org/Backend_Coding_Standards on it

If I don't hear from anyone, I'll make these changes on Friday.  If I have it 
wrong, tell me so and I won't make the changes.



From my point of view, looks good, the wiki is there to document the project and to be updated as soon someone finds the need of improvement. Specially, if this change will help others. I would say: fell free to improve adding links to related topic, if someone believes it could be in better shape, they can always improve based on your last improvements. Without mention that wiki have the history recorded to easily recover.

Have fun!
