I agree with Todd on this!
But it does not do a very good job of describing advanced feature nor
the many scripts available in the system.  

If we had in the doc of all the scripts that can be run and what they
do, it would most likely lead to less questions.

Personally for me, the format and presentation right now are secondary
to
content.  What you've outlined sound good for the documentation system.

Although this list provides a wealth of information, much of it doesn't
seem
to get rolled into the documentation (including the wiki).

The admin guide provides pretty good guide for setting up Zenoss (with
some
gaps), but it does not do a very good job of describing advanced
features
nor the many scripts available in the system.  The admin guide provides
descriptions of all of the zProperties, but not necessarily how they
need to
be set in conjunction with each other to produce the desired
functionality.

Subject: [zenoss-users] Question to Users about Zenoss Docs

Hey all,

We are going to try to revamp the format and presentation of the Zenoss
doc
set soon and would love some input. We have a few ideas of basic
requirements but we definitely want some input from the community. What
would you like to see?

Here is what we have so far and we will be evolving these requirements
as
part of ticket #949 (http://dev.zenoss.org/trac/
ticket/949)

Authoring environment needs to be
     * web publishing environment needs to allow users to make comments
in
the document.
     * easy to use
     * inexpensive (OSS preferred)
     * must support graphics
     * spell checking!
     * save documents in an open format
     * modular like wiki, but able to export and inport to more
traditional
formats for packaging - like .pdf
     * allow documentation to be integrated into contextual help within
the
zenoss application

What do you think? What do you want to see? What would make it easier
for
you?

Thanks,

Drew
Zenoss docs guy
