Ports pages need updating on www.d.o
Hi folks, I've been trying to help out a bit with the port pages (under https://www.debian.org/ports/), starting with the ARM ports. We could really do with updating a lot of the information here - it's so old it's starting to smell bad! I've removed some of the older details (e.g. hardware support) that used to be under https://www.debian.org/ports/arm and replaced them with pointers to the wiki now. My reasoning here is that the wiki is more easily updated for more dynamic content like this, plus it's much easier for the wider community to contribute that way. I'd suggest that most of the other port pages would be better organised like this too, but that's a decision for porters to make for themselves. We also need to work on some of the other content around here. For example, the top-level ports page is still listing the ports from Wheezy rather than Jessie. Please take a look. In the webwml source, there's even a file to list maintainers for the various port pages. Until I touched it today, it hadn't been modified since 2005. It's clearly not very useful at the moment! -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK.st...@einval.com I suspect most samba developers are already technically insane...
