Why would this go in the technical documentation space? It has nothing
to do with technical things like the framework and programming.
Actually it's nearly completely about the base applications and stuff
above that.
In other words, the project admin space is the final place I intend
for it. The project admin space is not some temporary place for things
that may eventually move to other spaces, like the wiki space is, it
is a place for controlled documentation about administration of the
project, including "policies", practices, recommendations,
introductory materials, keeping track of people and libraries, and so
on. This fits in perfectly there, IMO.
BTW should we not try to organize ourselves to better organize the
documentation in Wiki ?
Some months ago, I began to do it in the open part (The Open For
Business Project Wiki) by trying, as much as possible, to create a
tree from Home there.
Yes, it is a good thing to organize and make things more accessible.
It's always difficult though... unless it is simple and there is a
"natural" way to organize things, or an existing organization you can
just follow, then you have the problem where one man's organization is
another man's total chaos.
The above is a good example... ;)

This is a topic that came up at the conference, and has come up
over time on the mailing lists.
To help answer questions about this I've written up some details
and put together a diagram which is now available on this page on
the docs site:
http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBADMIN/Component+and+Component+Set+Dependencies
All committers should understand this pattern, and of course we
should refine it over time. Hopefully this will help us have, and
understand, a little more order in our efforts to organize
components.
Please send along comments! This is a first draft and I'd like to
discuss it and such so we can move toward following the patterns
and making this a "policy" of sorts.
