I've been reading up on confluence, and it seems that if we are going to use the confluence wiki for our documentation purposes, we *need* to get CLA's from the contributors.
As we don't have those for the current wiki, we need to move the current content to a separate space, which can be public (the way we work now), and we need to create documentation spaces for the projects.
From [1] Projects do not typically bundle a copy of moin-moin into a release. If you do plan to bundle a copy of the Confluence space into a release, then the expectation would be that a Contributors License Agreement would be on file from everyone who contributed anything greater than an incidental patch, to either the code or the documentation.
And:
One strategy is to allow confluence-users Comment Create rights. In this way, someone can at least leave a note about changes that could be made to a particular page. Incidental comments about a page would not require that a CLA to be on file. Projects can also setup multiple Spaces. One Space, open to all users, can be used as a conventional wiki. Then another Space with restricted editing permissions can be used to create the Project documentation.
The most important quote from [1]:
(!) But, do not bundle a copy of a Space into an official distribution unless all of the content has been donated to the ASF and we have the appropriate CLAs on file!
Any ideas on how to progress with this?
