yea, I have been reading it too...
my first reaction, fire off angry email to the new guy, asking why the new guy thought everything should change so I waited a day or two... Reaction still is why, and what for, I would like a clearer wiki, and by clearer, I mean, maybe more examples, written for a non experience user, as we all were that once. However the concept of having someone new, coming in and trying a re-write seems pointless, on of the strong points is the large number of experienced people, who help on a daily basis. I would think that most of them a re likely offended, (as am I), and since it's likely that the "real people" behind the software, wouldn't go there anyway. There also could be a turning point, I remember when several other open source programs experienced a similar "user base squabble". In more than one case, the developer, said "screw it", and we were all out of luck. I say, leave it the way it is, we all learned to understand, and function, so maybe the new guys should consider that too. And from what I understand, anyone can help write wiki pages, maybe that's a place to start. -----Original Message----- From: rivendell-dev-boun...@lists.rivendellaudio.org [mailto:rivendell-dev-boun...@lists.rivendellaudio.org] On Behalf Of Alan Smith Sent: Monday, April 28, 2014 2:08 PM To: rivendell-dev@lists.rivendellaudio.org Subject: Re: [RDD] NEW PLATFORM Just reading everything that is going along here, and I had thought of that as well. Big problem though is exactly how do you do it? I mean there are guys like me that are starting out fresh on the latest appliance, which a lot of that info doesn't apply (and can really confuse a newcomer such as myself), BUT... There are a lot of folks out there i am sure that are using much older versions that probably use the wiki as a resource of information. Off Topic, but not really-that is one of the BIGGEST challenges I have faced moving to Linux. Its not the *lack* of information, its the overload of information, and you have to really pay attention to find out what applies, what doesn't, and to which version's the info apply too. Just my nickels worth. -Alan On 4/28/2014 12:37 PM, Chester Graham wrote: What about just getting the wiki up to date and better organized?
