Hi folks,

As you know Adam the maintainer of the serverguide had stepped down. I'm trying to assemble a team of server oriented folks who are interested in reviewing the Ubuntu server guide (making sure all the info inside is fresh and accurate), this is only part of it, the team would also work on creating a fresh chapter on UbuntuCloud (openstack+orchestra+Ensemble).

If you are interested, please raise your hand

Cheers

Hi Ahmed,

Is there a general idea of what level we ought to be aiming the documentation at? There is a bunch of things that could be added to the MySQL section, for example, without turning it into a full on MySQL Guide (unless that's what we're aiming at?). Currently it's focussed along the lines of 'this is how you install it, start it and a couple of minor tweaks'. It could be filled out with brief discussion of the different storage engines provided by the packages, their strengths and weaknesses etc. The approach seems to vary between different sections of the documentation, and even within the same chapter. It would seem in general that the database section is woefully lacking in detail compared to other chapters.

Paul
