[HACKFEST] Wiki cleanup Tuesday, November 6
Once the Website redesign is finished and cloudstack.org is pointed to
the Apache site, I'd like to turn attention to the wiki and start
cleaning it up and making sure things are easily found.
Next Tuesday I'm going to spend most of the day working on this, and I'd
like to invite other folks to help out if they're interested.
A couple of things I hope to accomplish:
- Identify and move any content we want/need to keep from
wiki.cloudstack.org to the Apache wiki. Some work has been done there,
but there's still more to do.
- Clean up the landing page and get rid of any pages that are
unnecessary or totally outdated. (Or revise them so that they are
up-to-date.
- Make the landing page a useful index of content.
Wiki's are great, but they can become pretty sloppy with age - it takes
a lot of care and attention to keep them up-to-date and useful.
Best,
Joe

Great, wiki needs cleaning up. There are a lot of pages with same or content around the same topic.

Hey all,
OK, now that the release announcement is out - I'm going to be in
#cloudstack-dev off and on all day to try to get started on cleaning up
the wiki.
Please feel free to join in. As I mentioned earlier - the objectives are
to identify and move any content from the old wiki to the current one,
and to clean up the landing page and make it usable.
Thanks!
Joe

That would have been a good thing to mention, I suppose. :-)
Yes, I'll be in the cloudstack-dev channel on Freenode all day, starting
early Tuesday morning.
Best,
