For instance in this response:

 "No unfinished half-things should be put on site like this."

Is this a decision that needs decided still? Is there a consensus in any
direction that  http://www.openindiana.org/community/ is for drafts or
not for drafts?  I get that the support docs had a new complete format
and required possibly a different type of server but this stuff is just
text.


I also like mailing lists and hate wiki talk pages.


Hi WebDawg,

I am not aware of a formally established process for submitting draft documents for consideration. For the purpose of discussing such a document, conceivably, it could have been hosted anywhere (www, wiki, google docs, github gist, etc.), or not hosted at all (e.g. the entire text sent as a post to the mailing list).

As I understood it, the original idea was for people to view the document and submit comments via the mailing list.

I don't believe it was ever intended for anyone but the original authors to directly edit the document as hosted on the www site.

As for alternate proposals, comments, etc., they could have been delivered in any form (IRC, mailing list, github gist, etc).

The need to provide an editable version of the document to be directly edited by community members wasn't (I don't believe) ever considered.

Michael
