Hello everyone, After a full day of fighting with a bug in MoinMoin that made it nearly impossible to setup permissions for the wiki, setup is complete. You can find the wiki on http://phpwebsite-comm.sourceforge.net/wiki For those of you who have not been a part of our ongoing discussions, this wiki is mainly for developers, testers, managers and other involved community members to discuss and refine the direction of phpWebSite. Really it can be used for any purpose, so long as it has relevance to phpWebSite or related project. To use the wiki, simply sign up for an account. Easy to do, try to use the wiki convention of FirstnameLastname. Ask someone already on the UserGroup page to add you to this page so you will have editing rights. http://phpwebsite-comm.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/UserGroup Feel free to email the list, myself at wendall911 [at] users.sf.net or Mike Noyes at mhnoyes [at] users.sf.net if you need assistance, or drop by our IRC channel on irc.freenode.net #phpwebsite and we can help you out. Maybe Kenneth can make an announcement for this at phpwebsite.appstate.edu and news could be posted on the relevant sf.net project pages. I don't know if this is necessary however, I'll leave that up to someone else. Wendall |

Ask someone already on the Gentlemen, Would one of you please add me to the wiki editing group. I have registered as GregMorgan. A year ago I started on revising the documentation. Life happened. I am back trying to answer questions in the forums.. LOL should I say the official forums. Now having been off for a year I see that most of the questions are the same. Actually I can go to my monitory email folder and pull out the answers from a year ago and they still work. I believe I have enough junk to create an enhanced install list, etc. I'd like to take all the existing txt files in the docs directory and kludge them together into a nice document--I am so lazy to start with other people's work ;) but it's the open source way. The wiki looks like the perfect place to do this because other people can pipe up and biff me in the head if I get it wrong. More importantly, it solves some of the fragmentation issues the community has over documentation and other issues. We're all gungho to do something but it is difficult to follow through. It seems hard to build on other people's work. With that in mind how would you like to start this off in the wiki? My thoughts are to take the existing doc at http://phpwebsite.appstate.edu/manual/html/; add an install section; toss in the developer's txt files; revise or should I say wiki wiki and all the user's problems will go away---if they read it. What kind of junk to I have to bring to the table? So I answer questions like this one https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=2927443 I pull this out of my umm archive ( and you thought I was going to say something else ;-) ) https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=2928134 I add this https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=2929150 Seems like a common problem. So this can be added to a section of the INSTALL.txt to build on it. Then you have this question https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=2927129 I am answering it here https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=2929633 with the idea of revising it for the manual. What have I done before life happened a year ago http://kissalice.sourceforge.net/phpmanual/output/c2120.html. As I recall the CVS section was fairly polished. I started on a theme section http://kissalice.sourceforge.net/phpmanual/output/c2466.html. That idea sucked because not everyone is a chess player. However, I have been thinking another way to attach the problem. Mike wants to kick me in the butt because he has leaf up on phpwebsite and I still don't have the module written. However, I was going to show the design process here http://kissalice.sourceforge.net/phpmanual/output/c2260.html. I also wanted to take what was in the phpwebsite CVS for 1.0 and revisit as another way to create modules. I think Stardog was working on something. So if you give me access, I will write. I will perhaps answer user forum questions first in the wiki and then point them to it there. Hence others can refine it. Thanks, Greg |
