Hi list and maintainers! As the topictitle says, i would like to see a wiki-revival.
I like the bakery, but since we are all desperate for docs, good up-to-date examples and practices it would help the community if we had a Wiki again! I am also not for a Wiki that is swarmed by newcomers asking for help on the 101 but i also dont want to explain stuff more than twice (in chats or wherever), and i myself dislike hunting for "good" blog entries or the "right topic" in the groups. Can be very frustrating at times... you gotta admit that. I know from the past that the Wiki was a mess, but thats where we need to recrute/name moderators (an open sub-team maybe). You could count me in for that. A wiki version of the docs is absolutely necessary in such a long transition phase. There are so many changes and most devs want to use and learn 1.2 already. The docteam then could adopt the writings and compile it, readers could download/export a current draft, subscribe to pages using rss, etc .. But for this to work the general structure needs to be layed out from start (bakery is a good example: version info, type). With a well categorized layout we should be able to reach a good amount of quality! The old Wiki had no structure at all... Maybe in the beginning we should give all approved contributers from bakery write access to the wiki only. That would sort out the problem of having everybody creating pages at will. Later on we can remove this restriction after a good amount is ported/created within the new setup and we give everyone write access. Who wouldn't want the Manual Pages to be reviewed? :-) What you think? Best! Kjell "m3nt0r" Bublitz PS: please use mediawiki if you give it a (second) shot. The old wiki-soft was crap.. ^^ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
