Oh, I forgot: To create a page you need to use
http://wiki.centos.org/de/FAQ?action=edit in the case above (same for
every other page).

Translated content needs to have *exactly* the same URL as the english
content, except for an added /de/ in there. For example:

http://wiki.centos.org/FAQ becomes http://wiki.centos.org/de/FAQ

You now have a homepage at

on and *under* which you can edit to your heart's content (under meaning
PhilipJensen/FooBar).

Once you have your stuff there, we will take a look at that.

Sorry, no habla espanol (and I probably cannot write it either). The

Hmmm. No. That is not really what we are looking for (although it sounds
interesting). We're looking for documentation which enables the reader
to *learn* and then implement things himself. Okay, if there is some
copy & paste, there's nothing wrong with that :)

But we don't want to supply shell scripts which are opaque to the causal
user and then do something he cannot reproduce (or understand with his

If you can add to various parts of the wiki which already describe mail
- or create new pages on things which aren't already covered - then that
would be great.

Okay, why don't you put a page first under your homepage:
http://wiki.centos.org/ahmed_hassan

If that doesn't work (now idea if and how the wiki likes the
underscore in your username), you probably need to reregister with
FirstnameLastname.

So the same as with 4 and 5: I still am all for "CentOS 5" and "CentOS
6" sections in documentation, where things differ and do that directly
on the page. Now this might mean that we have two completely different
versions of a page, if the difference is too big. IMHO.


OTOH upstream's documentation has grown quite a bit from the "5" days,
so a few things we have on the wiki are now documented in the official
documentation.

Yes, but you cannot copy&paste in one go, thus maybe destroying *all*

I'll ask you the same things that I ask everyone going for a
translation: Are you alone or are there a few more people doing the
translation? Do you think you can keep up with a) the existing content
and b) changing wiki pages?

I ask that, because most attempts to add a language to the wiki ended
pretty soon, after a few articles were translated.

That is nothing personal, but just a question coming out of that
experience, I personally think it is great, that you want to do
something like that.

If you look at the wiki frontpage, you'll find that traditional lives
under zh-tw/, while simplified lives under zh/ - and you should be able
to add and edit there.

As for the french version: As we have not that much french content in

The wiki has some lines on how to contribute to the wiki.

http://wiki.centos.org/Contribute#head-42b3d8e26400a106851a61aebe5c2cca54dd79e5

Regarding your request to translate the wiki: Are you sure that you can
spend the time to completely translate the wiki? To keep it up to date
when the original pages change? Are you alone or do you have a few
people who want to help with that task?

We more orless would like to have an idea about what you want to write
to see if there might be better places for that documentation, to see
where it fits in the wiki or just to see if there will be duplicate

That cannot be an acl issue (except he broke something himself), as he

If the driver is under an open license which allows redistribution, I 
don't see a real problem.

If it is closed - no way.

Okay. Why don't you begin with the Release Notes, see if you like it,

That would mean to change all the scripts (and still makes it possible

Yes, as the scripts at the moment fiddle with user accounts, so real

The real problem with that: Are you willing to stay on? And to translate
other pages? We have a half baked es/ tree, a rather up-to-date zh/ tree.

I'd rather have a group of people adding translations - which need to
stay current as the original changes, but (as you've seen) have a
problem with outdated pages.

I don't want to turn you away, just make you aware of what you might get
yourself into :)

Document type. The wiki is not really meant to serve, version, edit and
- well - import foreign formats. You can do so if a page needs an
attachement, but I don't really want to use it as storage for foreign
formats.

I don't really know what you all want to do with the documents. We can
use them as is - and as we don't change them contentwise, I'm not sure
why we should change artwork on those.

I can take a look at it, as I broke my dovecot yesterday when updating 
from Fedora 13 to 15 (although that should mean that the one in 6 seems 
similar enough).

Please ping me when we got that far :)

I guess same as with 4 and 5 - put both in one article and point out 
differences.

Then you're not in Kansas anymore, Projects really should only be used 
when you are adding a project needing it's own trac instance (and svn). 
But maybe i586 support really does need that later on, as you probably 
need files and patches and so on.

Otherwise I am not sure yet, as to where that should belong.

Hmmm. But that is not the only time when you will get that error,
normally it means that something (be it a driver issue, faulty RAM,
segfaulting applications etc.) ends your gnome-session after such a sort
time, so I don't really think your issue covers all - not even most - of
the reasons.

Not that I am ungrateful for someone wanting to add to the CentOS
documentation, but I think your proposal is a bit narrow.

I have two issues with that:

Number 1: A short introduction would be great (why am I doing this? Why
is this favorable over SELinux? Does SELinux work with it (I guess not
at this stage).

Number 2: Is there maybe a package for chrootuid in on of the better

I've given you access to your "HomePage" at
