Andy Wenk commented on COUCHDB-2350:
------------------------------------

[~candeira] thanks a lot for the spreadsheet. I understand why you want to 
remove these pages (rows 6,7,8 and so on) - because they shouldn't be editable 
by users. I don't think that way. As this is an Open Source project, every 
contributor is allowed to edit these contents. We do not have any restrictions 
on who should be able to edit. If you ask for an wiki account, you will get the 
account without any questions. All this is based on trust.

So for me, these pages should be moved away if the context is wrong, but not 
because they shouldn't be editable by any user. 

Now, I would like to add comments - what is the best way to do so in the 
spreadsheet?

Thanks a gain for your huge contributions :)

> It occurs to me that as a new inductee into the project I'm in a privileged 
> position to update and restructure the documentation as I take the project 
> in, and it would probably be a better first task than to go after individual 
> bugs.
> This is how I'd go about working on restructuring the documentation:
> - move the old wiki content to confluence and 301 all wiki.apache.org pages 
> to the new wiki. No new content added. 
> - track all links and references to old wiki in docs.couchdb.org, and rewrite 
> them to point at new wiki. Still no new content added.
> - then I would start triaging documentation bugs. There are many tasks that 
> are better done by a newcomer, since we need to follow the documentation or 
> be confused by it.
> This is what I'd need:
> - To be added to the confluence wiki contributors list (username: candeira)
> - To be added to the old wiki contributors list (username: JavierCandeira)
> - Optionally, to have a test confluence wiki so I can test migrating the old 
> one to the new one via scripts without making public changes until bugs have 
> been ironed out.
