Over the weekend I added a LARGE number of JIRA Issues, describing the gaps in the component reference (for the framework, and for the contrib library).
Thiis is an EXCELLENT chance for the wider Tapestry developer community to contribute to the project! Converting from the HTML format to the Forrest XML format is not very difficult and there's plenty of examples already available. Better yet, you can be effective without needing commit privs ... because it's very reasonable to just attach the final file to the JIRA issue. Here's how I see the process: - Developers (not committers) select a Component Reference page to work on - Add a comment to the JIRA issue (i.e., take ownership) - Create the documentation (Forrest XML) and attach it to the JIRA issue - A committer applies the file (or patch) and closes the issue To build the documentation, you need to do a bit of setup, documented on the Wiki: http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-tapestry/BuildingTapestry Pay attention to the notes at the end, about the live-site target. Very handy. Thanks in advance to everyone who pitches in! -- Howard M.
