Good day GeoServer users Here's a quick update to the effort coordination for the 2024 roadmap. Thank you to the few individuals who have responded with offers of assistance.
The 9 tasks have been broken up into individual wiki pages, all linked from https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/wiki/Maintenance-%26-Roadmap#2024-roadmap. Please take a look at them, see which ones interest you and your company the most, and put your name down to assist** One current task that I would like to highlight is the effort by Jody (GeoCat) to migrate all the brilliant GeoServer documentation (that you reference every week!) from sphinx to mkdocs: https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/wiki/Migrate-documentation-to-mkdocs He has now asked for users to compare the old documentation to the new documentation (preview found here: https://jodygarnett.github.io/geoserver/) and to let us know if there are any glaring issues, like broken links or elements that are not properly rendered. He has done a fantastic job so far of automating the migration, but *we need your eyes on the new documentation*, please, for the final acceptance. *This is something that you can all get involved in!* ** How to make a wiki edit Hmm, we're working on that. For now, please just reply by email with your offer to help. ** How to report an issue with mkdocs If you have a GitHub account, make a detailed comment in the pull request: https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/pull/7429 If you don't have a GitHub account, we would love you to make one, so that you can contribute more easily: https://github.com/signup (3 minutes, plus it is visually fun!) If you really don't want to sign up, you can reply publically (preferably not privately) and I will capture your feedback in the pull request for you. Thanks for your time!
