And two more....

A Glossary to decode ambiguous Matterhorn terms. This should include prominent terms used in the Wiki, configuration files and code notes. (e.g. "Episode: an optional product, synonymous with Archive, that represents an encapsulated ingested Recording event. An episode may be retrieved and processed through the same or additional workflows and be redistributed at a later time. See chapter on How to Implement Episodic Archive for Backup, Reprocessing and Republishing" ).

A Users Guide section, that includes basic how-tos, tips and troubleshooting for day-to-day end users.

Hello all,

Some updates and a new proposal for your review on the on-going plans for wiki 
gardening:

Given the response from the community, automated archiving of items within the 
Opencast wikis is off the table for now.

Instead, a new #proposal is on the table to focus on updating MHDOCS manually 
and with care, with a focus on content that is useful for an adopter audience. 
To do so, the documentation working group proposes this path:

1 -- open up access for anyone in the community to edit and modify MHDOCs
2 -- develop a new color and design theme for MHDOCs, so that it is visibly 
different and identifiable as a wiki geared for Matterhorn adopters.
3 -- a new organizational structure for MHDOCs would be drafted and proposed 
further for community approval
4 -- Contingent on the approval of the organizational structure: decide on 
content that can be moved from the developers wiki to MHDOCs; invite new 
content within the revised structure of MHDOCs; solicit contributors that can 
develop new guides for MHDOCS; revise the format of Release Docs.

Please provide your feedback, comments, and general feelings on this proposal 
so this effort can move forward toward improved documentation for use by you 
and by others. Thanks!

The Documentation Working Group
