A new developer wiki begins!
I'm delighted to report that the gold mine of developer information that
is Paul Rogers' Drill wiki has just formed the basis of a new Drill
developer wiki.
https://github.com/apache/drill/wiki
The community would like to thank Paul for this sizeable and valuable
contribution, and for his blessing that we proceed to merge the work
under the normal Apache contributor terms.
Our work here is just beginning. A wiki is never a completed work, but
requires ongoing editing from all of us to remain complete and
accurate. Let's go on to make it the powerful asset for future Drill
developers that it certainly can be.
James

Hi All,
Apache projects welcome many contributors. It is very unusual for any
contributor to be named separately from others. For example, we don't name
the original Drill developers, nor do we name the person who tirelessly
worked to write the Drill docs and website. If the Wiki is healthy, many
will contribute over time; it will be awkward to figure out who did more:
more text? More commits? More answering the questions recorded in an edit?
We're on the committer's page: that's consistent with how Apache projects
work.
Thanks!
- Paul

|Hi Charles||
||

authorship but he declined that bit. We do have the Git history for the
wiki, and the lines shown for the last Git commit to affect a page are
quite visible in the wiki, e.g.||

||
||But those will of course fade over time as others add commits. I did
not argue the matter, just concluded with "if you ever change your mind,
tell us and we will add an attribution". To give you an idea of what
Cong's table of authors might look like if it was ranked by number of
commits, here's the output of git shortlog -sn.||
||
|| 752 Paul Rogers||
|| 8 Mohamed Gelbana||
|| 1 Boaz Ben-Zvi||

That is good advice. I recommend adding a page (or a table list) listing all the wiki contributors. Paul is the founding member.

This is great! Can we give @paul-rogers some credit on these pages? Also I'd really love to merge the existing dev docs in the github repo with the wiki docs. I'm willing to help with that, time permitting.
