+1 from me.
It looks like 2.6 has a manageable list of doc needs. It looks like
several of these features are ones developed by ESI and probably already
have documentation in the works. It would be great if Angela or Erica
could mark down which ones will be contributed by ESI before the rest of
us start marking our names down for them.
Thank you for keeping us focused Remington!

Hi DIG,
I have added the following to this week's meeting agenda. What do you
think? I would love to see DIG gain some traction and get into a
regular rhythm of documenting new features before they are released.
What will help us move in that direction? These are my ideas, but
please feel free to share your ideas too. Maybe at this week's
meeting we can choose a direction and give it a try.
Proposed goal (by Remington): Document all new 2.6 features by July 1,
and all new future version features by the time the version is released.
1. We could accomplish this by adopting a simple workflow, where each
active DIG member commits to document 1-3 features per month (from
a list like the 2.5 needs list
<http://evergreen-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=evergreen-docs:2.5_needs>)
and report on progress at each monthly meeting. We may also want
to meet more frequently (twice a month?).
2. I have created a draft of a 2.6 Docs Needs
<http://evergreen-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=evergreen-docs:2.6_needs>
page.
3. To ease the burden on us and improve speed and understanding, we
should partner with the developer(s) of new features as much as
possible.
4. All older features that need to be documented should be part of
the DIG workflow too, but maybe secondary. Perhaps when an EG
version begins the Alpha phase we shift focus to new features
until the final release, and then we shift focus back to older
features that need work.
