Hi, Currently, when someone is looking for steps to compile a QGIS release, he'll will find them in the QGIS repo [0]
I personally don't like that page and from a non-english speaker and non-developer looking for a howto, I didn't like it not being translated. And there are pages from the translated website that directly link to this page (leaving a fully translated page to a specialized page totally in english from within the QGIS project doesn't really sound good to me). Then, reading the introduction of this notice, you'll find assertions such as: - "You can download this document as part of the QGIS 'User and Installation Guide' in HTML and PDF format via http://qgis.org." - "Translations of this document can also be downloaded at the documentation area of the QGIS project at http://qgis.org." AFAICS, this text is available nowhere in the manuals and there's no translated version. SO, does it make sense to move it to somewhere like http://www.qgis.org/en/site/getinvolved/development/index.html? It'll complete all other chapters on development matters, will be more visible, sexy and translatable. The issues I can't figure out how they can be solved are: - what will be the status of the current page, in the QGIS repo? - how will update be managed? Comments are welcome. I'd have loved to show you this chapter in context but I'm unable to build the website [1] so you may need to review the PR #343 [2](I've RSTed the text) <https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Website/pull/343> Thanks, Harrissou [0] http://htmlpreview.github.io/?https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/blob/master/doc/INSTALL.html [1] http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/Unable-to-build-QGIS-Website-with-Paver-td5262145.html [2] https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Website/pull/343
