So, current status is: * Confluence wiki is now open for anyone to edit it (per cutting). * I've done some content updates: * I've moved over the page on HowToRelease. * I've also copied over the Hadoop code review checklist as it was referenced from How To Contribute. * I fixed the formatting on How To Contribute. * The website update will be built and pushed by either cutting or massie. * The old wiki will redirect to the new and cutting will be taking care of that.
So, I think all that remains is the website update and the redirects to be put in place and we can call this done! - Bruce On Thu, Jun 3, 2010 at 12:39 AM, Doug Cutting <[email protected]> wrote: > On 06/01/2010 02:09 AM, Bruce Mitchener wrote: > >> Status: >> >> * Confluence wiki created, I have access along with Scott Carey so far. >> * Send me usernames and I'll get everyone else added. >> > > Bruce, thanks so much for driving this forward! > > I'm not sure that we need access controls on this wiki.
