-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 There have been some questions about how the GSoC project interacts with the existing documentation work that happens around the wiki. Let's get all the open questions in to this thread and discuss them. Lei, Kunaal -- What other open questions do we have? Anyone else with open questions? The GSoC project is supposed to be additive to what we do -- an additional way to get new contributions submitted, reviewed, and ready for publishing. Where things are published is still an open question for this group (centos-docs) to decide. The toolchain basically takes submissions in common markup formats made via GitHub. It puts them in a queue for an editorial team to review. When ready, the tool can publish or make content ready for publishing. The content could be new articles, or repurposed content from e.g. blogs (with appropriate open licensing.) There is a lot of content out there about how to do things with CentOS, but most of the original authors aren't going to go through the process of requesting a wiki account and publishing here. For where to publish from the toolchain, if we want to keep all docs in the wiki, we should plan to have the tool output to MoinMoin wiki syntax so that one of the existing editors can copy/paste in to an existing or new wiki article. This wiki publishing would work for shorter form content. So the new tool could be a way for people to submit edits to existing wiki articles without having to get a wiki account. Some open questions: * Who can/wants to be on the editorial board? * Where do we want to publish longer documents? For example, if we had the sources for one of the RHEL documents in Git, it would be straightforward to modify that document for CentOS, and even add to it, via this new toolchain. Would we want to put that in to a series of wiki articles? Or publish it directly to centos.org/docs in HTML and PDF format?
