             Summary: Migrate wiki to spark.apache.org web site
                 Key: SPARK-18073
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-18073
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Documentation
    Affects Versions: 2.0.1
            Reporter: Sean Owen


Per 
http://apache-spark-developers-list.1001551.n3.nabble.com/Mini-Proposal-Make-it-easier-to-contribute-to-the-contributing-to-Spark-Guide-td19493.html
 , let's consider migrating all wiki pages to documents at 
github.com/apache/spark-webiste (i.e. spark.apache.org).

Some reasons:
* No pull request system or history for changes to the wiki
* Separate, not-so-clear system for granting write access to wiki
* Wiki doesn't change much
* One less place to maintain or look for docs

The idea would be to then update all wiki pages with a message pointing to the 
new home of the information (or message saying it's obsolete).

Here are the current wikis and my general proposal for what to do with the 
content:

* Additional Language Bindings -> roll this into wherever Third Party Projects 
ends up
* Committers -> Migrate to a new /committers.html page, linked under Community 
menu (alread exists)
* Contributing to Spark -> Make this CONTRIBUTING.md? or a new 
/contributing.html page under Community menu
** Jira Permissions Scheme -> obsolete
** Spark Code Style Guide -> roll this into new contributing.html page
* Development Discussions -> obsolete?
* Powered By Spark -> Make into new /powered-by.html linked by the existing 
Commnunity menu item
* Preparing Spark Releases -> see below; roll into where "versioning policy" 
goes?
* Profiling Spark Applications -> roll into where Useful Developer Tools goes
** Profiling Spark Applications Using YourKit -> ditto
* Spark Internals -> all of these look somewhat to very stale; remove?
** Java API Internals
** PySpark Internals
** Shuffle Internals
** Spark SQL Internals
** Web UI Internals
* Spark QA Infrastructure -> tough one. Good info to document; does it belong 
on the website? we can just migrate it
* Spark Versioning Policy -> new page living under Community (?) that documents 
release policy and process (better menu?)
** spark-ec2 AMI list and install file version mappings -> obsolete
** Spark-Shark version mapping -> obsolete
* Third Party Projects -> new Community menu item
* Useful Developer Tools -> new page under new Developer menu? Community?
** Jenkins -> obsolete, remove


Of course, another outcome is to just remove outdated wikis, migrate some, 
leave the rest.

Thoughts?
