I also think we provide those in the form of documentation pretty
well already.
Not everyone reads documentation. It's tailored to one type of
learner. A lot of people prefer to learn by tinkering/modifying a
predefined/existing system rather than reading documentation manuals.
FWIW, I'm one of those people. When I write down notes, I don't read
them back.
For those things, I use "command --help" and quickly skim options I
need. The existing cobbler web app also has tooltips (your
recommendation) for those kinds of people. What it doesn't have are
basic views for basic uses, which is the thing I'm want to do for a
upcoming (soonish) release.
Yeh, but I think where you say "perspective" I'm thinking different
UI / different workflow. Although then they could be tied together
in different tabs and look the same so they could "look" like
perspectives - but essentially they would be different UIs developed
as such.
Maybe create some mockups to see what this might look like?
That's a pretty big project to take on. Unless you mean just making
them 'look' like perspectives, for which there are already mockups on
the pulp site to show that kind of framework.
yeah I am not sure what the goal of this project is. I was thinking if
you are still interested in some kind of new web tool for repos I
wondered what it might look like. I've seen the existing stuff but
wasn't sure
if you were talking about something different or not.
It seems there are two topics here, of which I am most interested in the
second
(A) Making a new web app, possibly to be included with and/or replace
parts of Spacewalk
(B) Adding some repo management features that Cobbler can't do yet ...
whether that be in cobbler or otherwise
