Hi jcloudies! We've recently started a discussion about the contents in http://jclouds.apache.org
It would be great if we could discuss the things to improve to make the site better and make it easier for newcomers to approach jclouds. Let's do some brainstorming and see what we can do! My opinion is that the current content doesn't help people approaching jclouds: documentation is hard to find, and there are many obsolete pages. IMO the site should have a simple landing page (as it has now), with the following sections: * Getting started: Should explain the concepts: contexts, providers, apis, locations, but not many more. We should keep it simple. Also should contain a few links to other topics such as compute/blobstore description, logging, configuration and basic code examples. But keeping everything simple, basic and short/concise. This is what 99% of people approaching jclouds looks for, so let's put that in the getting started page and keep it simple. * Provider user guides: I like the current format. Just explain the provider specific apis with examples * Community: Links to the ML, Jira, etc. * Blog. I really think we should revisit and simplify the entire site. Remove the obsolete documents and those too specific, and keep the site with simple docs of common code that help understanding the core concepts and how jclouds works. I'm sure that would help adoption? WDYT? Any other vision of how the site should be? Can we coordinate and start together a documentation effort? Ignasi
