Hi folks,
As you know Adam the maintainer of the serverguide had stepped down.
I'm trying to assemble a team of server oriented folks who are
interested in reviewing the Ubuntu server guide (making sure all the
info inside is fresh and accurate), this is only part of it, the
team would also work on creating a fresh chapter on UbuntuCloud
(openstack+orchestra+Ensemble).
If you are interested, please raise your hand
Cheers
Wow, I have been bombarded with interested contributors! Thanks to
everyone who replied offering to contribute, this is how we "Ubuntu
people" get things done! For everyone wanting to contribute, here is
what you need to do:
- Visit: http://pad.ubuntu.com/serverguide
- Pick a sub-chapter you would like to review, add your launchpad
name to the end and change status from TODO to INPROGRESS
Example: 4.2TCP/IP (TODO) would become 4.2 TCP/IP
(INPROGRESS)(YOUR-LP-NAME)
- That pad page also has instructions on how to grab the serverguide
and work with it
- If you've never used bzr before, this tutorial can be useful:
http://doc.bazaar.canonical.com/latest/en/mini-tutorial/
- If you need any help, ping me kim0 on irc. I hang out on
#ubuntu-server or #ubuntu-cloud. Or shoot me an email
Note: While we've broken down the work items by sub-chapter, I would
like to encourage you to own a full chapter since that should help
with consistency
Thanks again for offering to help, we have a limited time frame till
11.10 is released, so your prompt contributions are very welcome.
Let's start crunching
Hi Team,
We are almost half way through this month. My soft goal is to have all
chapters in a merge proposal by end of this month. If you're
interested in a nice graphical representation of approximately where
we are, please check this out
http://cloud.ubuntu.com/2011/09/serverguide-review-progress/
- If you'd like to help with this effort, your help is needed and time
is not on our side. Please do adopt a chapter on
http://pad.ubuntu.com/serverguide all instructions are already on that
page
- If you already adopted a chapter, kindly update your chapters'
status to one of:
* TODO: Someone needs to adopt this
* TODO + YourName : I am planning to review this sub-chapter. It
will be ready for a merge proposal by end of this month
* INPROGRESS: I am already on it, will be ready by end of month
* PROPOSED: Merge proposal filed
* DONE: Merged
Cheers
Hi again,
Oneiric is approaching *fast*. Please visit
http://pad.ubuntu.com/serverguide and update your chapters' review
status. Thanks a lot for everyone who has contributed to improving the
serverguide. As usual, if you think you cannot review your chapters
before 1st Oct, please consider reverting its status to TODO
Thanks
