I would be disappointed to lose the ability to contribute directly to
the Web site pages.  When the move to a wiki-based approach was first
discussed, one of the benefits was that it would not be necessary to
limit updates to committers as was the case with the previous web site.
Would it be possible to have some level of access control for edits
that is somewhat broader than the list of code committers, but not
opened up to everyone in the world?

Regarding Ant's comment, I think the alternative proposed wording
currently in the page is good..."Since the wiki content forms the
backbone for the public website content, its structure is documented
here to help keep it maintainable."

You will have to restrict edit to just committers if you want to make this Confluence space your "official" web site. I strongly recommend you folks discuss this with Infra@ as you will also need Confluence admin auth to control your own user groups.

I don't like this bit:

"Since the Wiki content forms the backbone for the public website content, it is important that the community adheres to some community accepted common
guidelines when authoring content on the Wiki, to help in consistency and
maintainability of the content."

If we're worried about what happens on the website we should just restrict
access so only committers can update it, then, just as with the code, we
work CTR.

The website is looking good now, much better than before, but IMHO that
doesn't mean its perfect or that we should try to restrict or control any
future changes to it.

Hi,

I've added more to this guidelines page. Please take a look and see if it
all makes sense.  Thanks.
