[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-568?page=comments#action_12461278 ] David E. Jones commented on OFBIZ-568: --------------------------------------
This is a good effort and I'm glad it has started with an effort to review existing documentation. As I mentioned on the mailing list the goal since earlier this year when the docs.ofbiz.org site was created is to consolidate all documentation there. Please note that there are areas that are intentionally open, namely the OFBIZ space, and places that are meant to be controller by documentation moderators, namely the OFBTECH and OFBENDUSER spaces. Permission is required to work in these areas and we need volunteers, or more specifically we need _active_ volunteers. There is also an OFBADMIN space for documents and information related to the development and administration of OFBiz. The OFBIZ space (the open access wiki area) is meant to be a staging ground of whatever people want to put there and will never likely be well organized. Documentation volunteers should pull resources from there and credit them, just as with comments on pages in the OFBTECH and OFBENDUSER spaces, and work them into the existing "moderated" documentation structure. Anyone getting involved should review the history. For example, the "Application Reference for Users" page in the OFBIZ space is a place holder for the documents being migrated from the old Undersun end-user documentation site. All of the documents from that site are available as PDFs attached to this page: http://docs.ofbiz.org/x/5gI Note that SOME of these have already been moved over and are under the OFBiz End User Docs Home page at: http://docs.ofbiz.org/x/Bw Just go to that link and use the "view in hierarchy" link to browse around them. That is the target and the organization so far for the end-user documentation. > Index places of existing documentation that needs to be cleaned or deleted > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: OFBIZ-568 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-568 > Project: OFBiz (The Open for Business Project) > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Jacques Le Roux > Priority: Minor > > In order to provide a cleaner updated documentation we need to update or even > delete (when redudant or obsolete/false) existing informations in different > places where the OFBiz documentation stands.
