As far as I know, that is the only svn I have access to...and we do have ooo-site in there, so it would be quite natural to have wiki as well. I do not see the pollution you see, to me it is nice that all AOO stuff is in one SVN, and that is nicely divided into distinct directories. When you discuss with infra (as I already did) please remember to say that it is application specific configuration files and NOT os/vm files. I got the reply that is was a good idea to keep track of changes, and if I/we do any changes to system files we have to notify infra. I have checked on and they do have (of course) SVN for VM specific settings, but wiki php files or mysql scripts, that is not part of their domain. > > g) Make a test.wiki.openoffice.org.

Anyhow I agreed with gavin to test it and file a JIRA ticket with either the result or request a DNS change. Actually he suggested to consider having an extra VM. We need to have a place to test an upgrade, with mail, create user and everything, otherwise we run a high risk when it is moved to production. And I dont think anybody uses e.g. "test.wiki.openoffice.org" or " solelyfortesting.wiki.openoffice.org" without actually wanting to use it. I can easily have a local copy running on my machine (I already have) but that is no test environment for production, for that more people need access. > > And thank you everybody for your work on the wiki so far! > Thanks. > > Regards, > Andrea. >
