This is one approach. I think it is sound -- but see my other post on what we want where wrt documentation -- and also how we deal (or if we should attempt to deal) with translations and the possibility of different versions of a documentation-section for different releases of trac. Maybe enhancing your naming scheme to: <ReleaseOrTag>/SomeWikiTopic/Recipes/HowtoDoSomethingCool and/or: <2LetterLanguageCode>/<ReleaseOrTag>/SomeWikiTopic/Recipes/HowtoDoSomethingCool Eg: no/0.11/SomeWikiTopic/Recipes/HowtoCoolness en/0.11/SomeWikiTopic/Recipes/HowtoCoolness /0.11/SomeWikiTopic/Recipes/HowtoCoolness (maps to defined default language, eg "en" or "no" ?) en/trunk/SomeWikiTopic/Recipes/HowtoCoolness There's still a question of resources and links from these pages to the sourcecode repository (images, code), eg make sure links form the /wiki/trunk goes to /svn/trunk, and /wiki/0.10/ goes to the right versions... Maybe "simple" mapping would be enough. These are old arguments/questions that led in the direction of the newhelp branch (as far as I remember, can tell from a bit of googling). However: We do *have* a wiki -- presumably we want something in it. Possibly more than discussions... I don't think we need a black-and-white test for what goes in the wiki and what goes in the "proper" version controlled documentation -- but clearly the current state of the wiki has severe limitations as a document management system. That might be a design decision (or perhaps non-decision). Maybe this is actually a "new" / distinct feature, and the direction forward should be that a trac project has: tickets (in db) source code (in vcs) documentation (in vcs with possibility of web editing/wiki) tests (via bitten) discussion (wiki/mailinglist/usenet news/irc) The point being that source code and documentation might not be well served by viewing them as the same. I'm not sure what seeing wiki as a vehicle for discussion actually implies. But it is an interesting observation if we take it seriously, and at face value. Again see the google wave presentation (wave.google.com) for some ideas on this. I don't think we want to abandon http/svn for a jabber based protocol (certainly not for 0.12!) -- but there are some ideas there that are interesting. - -e - -- .---.
