Over the next few weeks I actually have to write developer docs for a set of applications that I have built on top of Webware. I will, of coarse, have to cover how Webware itself works and how one goes about developing with it. During this process I will undoubtably go through the majority of existing Webware documentation and pair it down to something pretty focused.
Once I have finished the documentation I will make the Webware specific stuff available to the community and would be interested in using it as a base for re-orginization of the docs. I'll mention it again when I actually have something to show. - Aaron Switzer On Tue, 2004-03-30 at 10:30, Todd Grimason wrote: > * Ian Bicking <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [2004-03-29 17:07]: > > > > We don't have any corporate backing or much of that appeal, but we can > > still appeal to management types that have an appreciation for open > > source software and the environment that entails.
