Hi: Yep, needs work. I am DOA for now which is okay since I need to spend some quality time with the dremel and a SuperMicro SC750 case anyway. THE biggest problem is that there is not any registration function. Wikis are for collaborative efforts but apparently Trac does not have a simple registration function. All I saw was that the admin has to run an admin script to assign permisssions. I certainly hope that is robust enough to be automated, :). I cannot do anything until I can be registered with at least the link changing function. I stopped at the FAQ link(s). As more than likely the first place any user will look for info, if they look at all, ;), it needs to be available and, I suggest, editable. That presents a Copyright problem. Copyright (C) 1998 - 2005 Frodo Looijaard, Philip Edelbrock, Mark D. Studebaker and Jean Delvare Since that *might* be considered as expired, authors' permissions s/b all that is needed to adjust it. I saw no 'license' for it; merely the copyright statement. There is no mention of license anywhere on the FAQ page. Is that doc supposed to fall under the GPL as an official part of the lm_sensors project? The '' Licensed under GPL '' blurb is missing from the lm_sensors home page so maybe that sentence s/b added so we all know that code _and_ documents are GPL'd, unless of course somebody wants to license documents under the GFDL, http://www.gnu.org/licenses/licenses.html#FDL, or similar. ;) AS for the FAQ, I suggest a temporary fix by making the Contents list correct and linked to the current FAQ page, as such: [code] Table of Contents http://www.lm-sensors.org/browser/lm-sensors/trunk/doc/lm_sensors-FAQ.html?format=raw [FAQ/Chapter1 Chapter 1: Introduction and Overview] http://www.lm-sensors.org/browser/lm-sensors/trunk/doc/lm_sensors-FAQ.html?format=raw#Top [FAQ/Chapter2 Chapter 2: Sensor and Bus Basics] http://www.lm-sensors.org/browser/lm-sensors/trunk/doc/lm_sensors-FAQ.html?format=raw#toc_Basics [FAQ/Chapter3 Chapter 3: Installation and Management] http://www.lm-sensors.org/browser/lm-sensors/trunk/doc/lm_sensors-FAQ.html?format=raw#toc_Installation [FAQ/Chapter3 Chapter 4: Problems] http://www.lm-sensors.org/browser/lm-sensors/trunk/doc/lm_sensors-FAQ.html?format=raw#toc_Problems [FAQ/Chapter4 Chapter 5: How to Ask for Help] http://www.lm-sensors.org/browser/lm-sensors/trunk/doc/lm_sensors-FAQ.html?format=raw#toc_Help [FAQ/Chapter5 Chapter 6: How to Contribute] http://www.lm-sensors.org/browser/lm-sensors/trunk/doc/lm_sensors-FAQ.html?format=raw#toc_Contribute [FAQ/Appendix: Revision history of this document] http://www.lm-sensors.org/browser/lm-sensors/trunk/doc/lm_sensors-FAQ.html?format=raw#Document-Revisions [/code] That's pretty easy to do/change on the page and should work until such time that Registration is available and working securely. Let me know what is to be done about access for me as well as others who might contribute to the Wiki. Regards, Ric =================================== > 2.
