Sounds like someone is behind a transparent web proxy, I suggest you
verify that (look at http://gandalf.tausq.org/~randolph/env.cgi) and call
your ISP - it is not our end. You'll also want to use the latest APT.

Bug#61151: www.debian.org: social contract page incorrect about OSD

2000-03-27 Thread Joey Hess
Package: www.debian.org
Version: 2327
Severity: normal
Page: http://www.debian.org/social_contract

Debian, the producers of the Debian GNU/Linux system, have created the
Debian Social Contract. The contract, initially designed as as a set of
commitments that we agree to abide
by, has been adopted by the free software community as the basis of the
Open Source Definition.

That's a bit misleading, since the OSD does not include the entirety of the 
social contract, but just the DFSG, which is either just a part of the
social contract, or a standalone document, depending on who you ask.

The bottom of the page gets it right, so I don't really know why the
topmost paragraph is there at all.

Re: Available Documentation in the Debian's WWW/FTP mirrors/CDs

2000-03-27 Thread Javier Fdz-Sanguino Pen~a

I will try to take some steps. Yes, I am volunteering. Moving the
ddp pages to devel/ddp will be the easiest.  I will do this first.
Also, I would like to have a database to automatically generate the
listing of the documents available... how should I implement this? A perl
script (ala w.d.o/international/spanish)? A  'data' file (like
consultants/vendors..)? 
The data file maybe fit more with what already is being done but I
think the Perl database is more versatile. Any ideas?


Best regards

Javi

  Well.. I could but since the last I have checked there has been no
  talk whatsoever since last year on this topic. Debian-doc is not such a
  'light' Mailing list.
  I have, however, gone through all the information of the last two
  years and gathered some ideas on how it is currently, as James said: a big
  mess.
  Neither the DDP pages are up to date nor the work that people in the
  mailing list said it would be done has been done.
 
 Are you volunteering?  The tough work (deciding the route to take) has
 been completed.  See my recent post with the road map.
 
 I simply won't have time to do this probably for another month.

Re: [Adam Di Carlo adam@onshore.com] [RFC] DDP and www.debian.org merger

2000-03-27 Thread Javier Fdz-Sanguino Pen~a

Umm.. I know this is not that much integrated into wml but.. ¿have
you looked at the perl script made by Paolo Molaro, and modified by
Christophe Le Bars and myself? (the spanish version is in
w.d.o/international/spanish).
The idea of this is to have a Perl database (using hash arrays gives
a lot of possible uses) that has an entry for each documents. It is quite
powerful and Chris and me use it to keep track of translations.
That way you can do things like :
PERL
do 'ltcp.pl';
update_db_format();

dump_html(0);
/PERL

Which dumps all documents marked as 'unavailable' (0). Of course
this can be cleaned up a bit and made more 'developer-friendly' :)

  The index page for DDP documents needs to be implemented with a bit of WML
  magic, with .wml and .wmh files. From what I managed to observe in the last
  half an hour or so, all we need is some modification of
  webwml/english/template/debian/install_manual.wml to something less specific
  to install manuals etc, and better adjusted for this purpose, and a few
  lines of WML code to invoke the functions which generate the page.
  
  Any comments or even better concrete help would be highly appreciated :)
 
 I suggest rather a set of metadata files; these files can be the basis
 for a little sort of metadata database, so we could say:
 
   make-doc-index state=released
 
 to get an nice HTML index of the released documents, or
 
   make-doc-index state=in-progress
 
 to see rough documents which aren't ready yet.
 
 The metadata files would include a title, author, relative URL,
 release state, package if any it appears in.  Um... maybe other data
 too.

Please don't just move them. Instead, implement something better. :)
