Our current strategy does a reasonably thorough job of assisting users, but we don't do as well with assisting developers, or new docs contributors, for that matter. There's lots of new crazy code out there, and the large book strategy has a lot of inertia and can feel stifling when it comes to new additions and rapidly changing areas. > > *How do we fix this?* > > The high-level solution is to enable developers and experienced users to write about whatever they like to do.

The focus of this process should be on the quality of content and the efficacy of addressing a specifically defined topic. Someone shouldn't have to worry too much about markup or tools unless they've specifically opted to work in a markup or with the tools. > > This goes beyond just telling people, "You can write whatever you want however you want and get help with the publishing." That's not enough. The scope of our books is really too big to facilitate focused topical writing. The cookbook is evidence of that; Randomuser has offered cookbook assistance to many people and few take the bait. The new strategy is to build publishing/site generation tooling that supports varied content. This way contributors can range from independently capable writers, to SMEs looking to share but not learn the specifics of publishing, to requesters, to those wanting to write but needing assistance to get there. > > Ideally, we reach a point where each specialty group/SIG has a set of articles covering their interests, in a format that they're able to maintain. The only real example of that we have is the Amateur Radio Guide. And this is is basically single-handedly maintained by jjmcd, despite there being many other Fedora contributors doing radio stuff. This isn't ideal, but it is working for today. Rather than try to fix a working process, let's try to get more folks on-board, for example the Astronomy SIG. > > *How are we going to implement the solution?* > > Implementation is a challenge.

This is critical as tools are not valuable if no one uses them.

Tooling is solvable and being worked on. You can contribute to and follow the progress at https://github.com/immanetize/anerist . But beforewarned, it could be be better described. > > *How do you envision the workflow for a new content change/addition?* > > The system consists of a bunch of restricted commit repos containing large guides, collections of ReST articles, whatever. When a change is committed to a repo the tooling will see the commit and attempt to generate html from the affected files. If that succeeds, (and hopefully if it passes some validation tests, the strings in Zanata (Internationalization Tool) will be automatically updated to make the work available for translation immediately. The tooling will also extract some metadata from the document (title, subtitle, abstract, categorical information, etc.) and ultimately use that to generate a stage version of the docs site for verification before publication. > > An individual contribution comes in via a pull request workflow. This could be via a pagure.io solution or via a traditional git clone solution. Pagure.io has the benefit of bringing the fork/edit/PR process into a web-based format perfect for many contributors and for drive-by contributors. The merge starts the process just mentioned. > > Ideally we can support acls on a per branch and repository basis. This way a SIG, for example, could have control of their specific documentation by merging PRs. Members of the docs-writers group would have global commit capability. The branch structure can resemble many popular open source projects with a master that is clean and release branches for future maintenance. The system is branch-aware, so everything from 'master' goes to a draft area, things in f$n gets labeled as appropriate for f$n. > > *What are our big blockers today?* > > 1.
