Hi Aaron,

I think it's possible to complete the debian packaging wiki too (for a best
user experience) :

When servers connect to the Internet through a proxy, It's possible to have
an other error when adding publickey

(gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys F758CE318D77295D)

the error is like that :

gpg: requesting key 8D77295D from hkp server pgp.mit.edu
gpgkeys: HTTP fetch error 7: couldn't connect to host
gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.
gpg: Total number processed: 0

Simply, It's because the proxy is not set, To correct the problem, you
must set the environment variable http_proxy.

regards,

Jérémy

 Hi Aaron,
 I got an account to the wiki, logged in, and claimed the 'Configuration'
 page a.k.a 'Storage Configuration' for now. I will let you know when done or
 if I get stumped. Will also work on Setting up Eclipse page and put it
 somewhere.

 Thanks, Hani.
 If you would like to update the storage config page that would be handy.
 Just update http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/FrontPage_draft_aaron/  to
 say you are working on it. Just click the login link at the top to setup an
 account.

 wrt setting up eclipse, perhaps you could post your instructions on a blog
 somewhere and we can link to it.

while on the topic of the wiki ... it's not entirely pleasing to the senses
or at all user friendly ... hacking around on it earlier today, there aren't
that many options on how to give it some flare ... shame really that for
such a cool piece of software, the wiki doesn't scream the same level of
cool.

 Hi there,
 The dev's have been very busy and Cassandra 1.0 is just around the corner
 and full of new features. To celebrate I'm trying to give the wiki some
 loving to make things a little more welcoming for new users.
 To keep things manageable I'd like to focus on completeness and correctness
 for now, and worry about being super awesome later. For example the nodetool
 page is incomplete http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/NodeTool , we do not
 have anything about CQL and config page is from
 0.7 http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/StorageConfiguration
 As a starting point I've created a draft home
 page http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/FrontPage_draft_aaron/ . I also hope
 to use this as a planning tool where we can mark off what's in progress or
 has been completed.
 The guidelines I think we should follow are:
 * ensure coverage of 1.0, a best effort for 0.8 and leave any content from
 previous versions.
 * where appropriate include examples from CQL and RPC as both are still
 supported.
 If you would like to contribute to this effort please let me know via the
 email list. It's a great way to contribute to the project and learn how
 Cassandra works, and I'll do my best to help with any questions you may
 have. Or if you have something you've already written that you feel may be
 of use let me know, and we'll see about linking to it.
 Thanks.
