Re: [Wikitech-l] Starter kit ?
Reading [1], I'm wondering if we couldn't have a wiki version of this page that could be updated along the road. For example the text talk about MySQL and but doesn't talk about the MariaDB migration. By the way the two The Architecture of Open Source Applications books may find there place on Wikisource, don't you think? But Wikisource isn't the place for books you want to update, may be Wikibooks may be a good place, what do you think?

But Wikisource isn't the place for books you want to update, may be Wikibooks may be a good place, what do you think? Wikisource could host static versions of the books. Or Wikibooks could host live versions of the books. I'm not sure that we'd see many updates to the books outside of the MediaWiki chapter, so right now I'd rather encourage people to edit the content on mediawiki.org. -- Guillaume Paumier ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l

Only to honor the subject and initial motivation of this thread: Recently we started drafting an actual Starter Kit, as Mathieu requested: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Project:New_contributors/Starter_kit Edits and questions in the discussion page are welcome. In fact with a bit of focus from a few people during a few days we could get something pretty decent.

We want to know what can we do better for you! Well, I'm not a student nor a woman, but I appreciate all the feedback which is given to me on this thread. So thank you to all of you. For now it looks like to me that I will have to just sit down and read as it seems there a lot of documentation I should be accustomed to. At some point I'll reach the page which is talking about getting into action, closing a bug or something like that. Sorry I missed the bug triage yesterday.
