I'll do, as I am his brother. :-) A free-for-all wiki will soon end up in maintenance hell, or otherwise with lovely spam of all sorts. Forcing registration here would be a not-so- cool solution to this problem. I had the idea to use the same development model which is used for erlware's code base. For more information on that one, read the section "The Development Model" under: http://erlangish.blogspot.com/2007/10/erlware-and-git-development-model.html In short: Contributors clone the documentation-repo, make local changes until they're happy and then send a patch to a separate erlyweb-docs-mailinglist. I'd like to give some more info on what maddiin wrote here: > What we are thinking of instead of a wiki is building a tutorials > section using ReST-documents pulled off a control versioning system, > might it be git, mercurial or svn. Take a look at the docs of the djangoproject, where they use such an approach. Here's an example: http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/cache/ This is the corresponding source code of this piece of documentation (written in restructured text): http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk/docs/cache.txt And here's the code they use for building web pages from the source code: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/djangoproject.com/django_website/apps/docs/ Kind Regards, Chris --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "erlyweb" group.
