Hi all,
I was thinking about setting up a developer wiki for texmacs where
we can build and share documentations about the structure of the
code,
the ports, the procedures to compile (on Windows, cross-compile), the
problems, etc...
For example when I have questions for Joris, I can note them on some
page, together with his answers. We can note problems, things to fix,
etc... discuss possible way to fix, discuss the structure of TeXmacs
codebase.
In the hope that these information and the trace of activity can help
and encourage interested developers to join the effort...
No problem to have a wiki for developing issues.
However, the real documentation should rather be written using
TeXmacs.
We had a wiki for parts of that before and everything had to be
migrated
later on, which caused quite a lot of work.
I understand this but I was more thinking about unresolved issues,
discussions, preliminary recipes, etc... all things that needs
a collaborative environment. Moreover since one of the aim is also to
help gain visibility to the developing efforts (from the outside
world) I think that a standard HTML based
wiki is a better tool than static texmacs pages. Once the discussion
is settled down we can write reference documentation directly in
texmacs.
For example the discussion about the best way to implement the runloop
will not make a lot of sense in the TeXmacs docs. Unless you have
already implemented a TeXmacs-based wiki.....
What about setting up a trac? (could texmacs.org host the server?)
