Question - Wikis are designed for collaborative writing with history and rollback. Would it be possible to have the "now-current" version of the Help live in the Sugar Labs wiki where it can be worked on and controlled?
It always makes me nervous when people are working on a "single" document that can have lots of copies floating around in the workers' personal working space. In a wiki world, everyone see the current version, who made changes and what they did. When it is time to package the Help into the zip for release, that version of the wiki document can be noted and included, in case it is necessary to go back to the "release" version. Are there other considerations that necessitate the process you describe? ..Valerie > Message: 4 > Date: Wed, 26 Oct 2011 15:57:42 +1100 > From: [email protected] > To: Caryl Bigenho <[email protected]> > Cc: [email protected], Developers List <[email protected]> > Subject: Re: [IAEP] Need To Know: How to get the latest Help Activity > on Macs and PCs??? > Message-ID: <[email protected]> > > Caryl > > To edit the Help Activity in Windows > > #download the help sugar bundle > use this link - > http://activities.sugarlabs.org//en-US/sugar/downloads/latest/4051/addon-4051-latest.xo > > #unpack the sugar bundle > rename help-13.xo to help-13.zip > open help-13.zip > copy the directory Help.activity to somewhere else > > go to its help directory > > > The images can be edited with Paint > The htm files can be viewed in a browser > The htm files are best edited with something like Frontpage but you can use > Notepad or Wordpad if you like working with html > > Tony _______________________________________________ IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!)
