(The flip side of this is that every six months or so I notice someone's edited it with some wacky notion or other and I have to go and try to diplomatically remove / de-emphasize that). To edit the doc guide I'd have to go and deal with docbook and come up with a git patch and submit it for review by docs team, which isn't really a terribly high bar but is still harder than 'edit wiki page, now you're done', especially when wiki syntax is more or less tattooed into my brain. but yeah, it does kind of suck to have both, but I understand the docs team's reluctance to kill the docs guide when the wiki is a bit more 'wild west'ish. Not sure what the best choice would be - probably it'd be good to get the two singing from more or less the same hymn sheet, in the short term. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
