[oi-dev] Wiki account

Hi, how can I get an account on our wiki? I haven't found any information on how to apply for. The same for the illumos wiki. No obvious way to register. Seems as if it is a closed community. Regards Andreas ___ oi-dev mailing list oi-dev@openindi

[oi-dev] Wiki comments

Hi, could we disable comments on the wiki and remove all the existing ones. Most discussions are outdated, either irrelevant or incorrect. Discussions happen on IRC or the ML, no need for duplicates. We could argue about the lack of forums but in any case the Wiki is not one. Aurélien -- --- Pra

Re: [oi-dev] Wiki comments

Hi, even if I don't like the content written in a few selected comments, I would not just disable all without a closer look. If we find a way to preserve the message of the more valuable comments, that would be cool. In that case someone would need to edit the articles and merge in the messages.

Re: [oi-dev] Wiki comments

nikolam, you should check the comments. I have the impression that a lot of them can be deleted without loosing anything. You are right to preserve comments with valuable information, eg. technical discussions. Nevertheless, the wiki should have a cleanup and in my opinion should have a better

Re: [oi-dev] Wiki comments

Hello, I also support this step. I will be for every solution that helps us clean up wiki even more. Seeing outdated comments is bad thing. I’d rather see people update wiki content or contribute to oi-docs (hey, we need you!). If they want to discuss, there are channels for that: mailing lists
