Dennis E. Hamilton commented on COR-29:
---------------------------------------
Here are some sites with coverage and organizations that might inspire our
thinking
https://tails.boum.org/contribute/index.en.html
And other information about this particular project that shows different
avenues
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Git_For_LibreOffice_Developers
As a reminder for matters to cover, perhaps at better separation of levels,
with regard to Git usage by newcomers to Corinthia, to ASF projects, and
possibly to open-source development.

Interesting not just from its suggestions, but as a key to the kind of
information that needs to be readily available in a form that relates the
specifics of contributing to Corinthia, with particular attention to the
cross-platform aspects and how one can work on a particular
platform/configuration and contribute properly to the cross-platform success.

I have mixed feelings about this kind of operation but there are some
principles that might be very adaptable. This is a detour into principles that
are beyond the theme of COR-29. The homage to HyperCard in the blog turned my
head. This page https://github.com/LightTable/LightTable is a source of ideas
and, for me, demonstrates how complexity remains our demon, especially when our
meant-to-be-simple abstractions leak like crazy.

> Issue Type: Task
> Environment: Documentation, Principles, General
> Reporter: Dennis E. Hamilton
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: documentaion, how-to, manual, resources, web-site, wiki
>
> I have been collecting samples of web sites and related information that has
> appealing approaches to aspects of community support that may be adaptable
> for us.
> This is an open-ended task with the JIRA issue used as a collection point for
> contributions via comments.
> I can imagine that a wiki would be good for this but that's sort of a
> chicken-egg problem, since organizing a wiki is something to collect
> information about.
