No wonder, there's a typo, should be "for" -> "form". I changed it to: "To help find articles from the page list, choose a title of the form "Category: Subject". See the page list for examples." > I don't want to nit-pick, I honestly don't know. But I guess GitHub > wikis do not have categories like MediaWikis do, do they. The Github wiki seems rather spartan. I have to admit that I'd like to have something with short, stable URLs and some way to locate dead links. Speaking of which, I also added the phrase: "Do not change titles after an article has been published, since that will alter the article's URL and render any hyperlinks to the article invalid." (yes, there are some articles that don't adhere to the category rules, the most prominent example being "wiki guidelines" ;) > I heard a while ago that at least in Germany, you cannot voluntarily put > your work under public domain.

When writing the guidelines, I was deciding between CC0 and CC-BY, and since CC0 does not prohibit quoting the information source, I concluded that CC-BY would just unnecessarily complicate things for anyone wanting to use the information. For example, if someone copypastes a command or a command sequence from the wiki to another document, would they be obliged by the attribution clause? If I were doing the copypasting, I'd prefer not to ponder if I have to write "export RUMP_SERVER=foo (source: wiki.rumpkernel.org)". Does that make sense? (and of course assuming there's nothing wrong with the legality of the link that Justin posted) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ rumpkernel-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rumpkernel-users
