[jira] Created: (CXF-3016) User guides alignment for Camel, Servicemix, ActiveMQ, and CXF

User guides alignment for Camel, Servicemix, ActiveMQ, and CXF 
---------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: CXF-3016
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-3016
             Project: CXF
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Documentation
            Reporter: Robert Liguori
            Priority: Minor


Consider the following users guide URLs of Camel, Servicemix, ActiveMQ, and CXF 

http://servicemix.apache.org/users-guide.html
http://camel.apache.org/user-guide.html
http://cxf.apache.org/docs/index.html
http://activemq.apache.org/getting-started.html

All of these products provide SOA related solutions.

Each one of the user guides appear to have been developed independent of the other related product's guides.

It would be nice if they had the same feel and content structure.  Note: Of course each would have sections related to info that is unique to them.

I'm basically suggesting that a similair table of contents exists for each user guide, with the subcontents created/refined in a quality-controlled manner.

This would require someone comparing all four user guides, and bringing them into alignment.  The exercise will be valuable as it will expose missing sections of each user guide and will encourage the hyperlinking of informaiton where necessary.

In the long run, the existing, valuable user guides would be refined to produce four top quality user guides; one for each product: Camel, Servicemix, ActiveMQ, and CXF 

Please take this request under strong consideration.

[jira] Commented: (CXF-3016) User guides alignment for Camel, Servicemix, ActiveMQ, and CXF

Posted by "Glen Mazza (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>.
    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-3016?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12918868#action_12918868 ] 

Glen Mazza commented on CXF-3016:
---------------------------------

quote: Each one of the user guides appear to have been developed independent of the other related product's guides.

Which is absolutely fine, as each of the projects are separate from each other (each top-level) with different committers on them.  The fact that many of the paid developers work for companies that support multiple projects is irrelevant from the Apache perspective.  Further, each guide is optimized to serve their particular product best.

quote: All of these products provide SOA related solutions.

But they are still so disparate that you cannot force them into the same format without loss of data or unnatural/inefficient reading order.  What works for Camel does not work for CXF and does not work for ActiveMQ.

[jira] Resolved: (CXF-3016) User guides alignment for Camel, Servicemix, ActiveMQ, and CXF

Posted by "Daniel Kulp (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>.
     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-3016?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Daniel Kulp resolved CXF-3016.
------------------------------

       Resolution: Invalid
    Fix Version/s: Invalid



I'm marking this invalid for a couple reasons:

1) At Apache, each TLP is allowed (actually, kind of expected) to figure out how to present their web site in a way that best suites thier targets.   

2) The navigations and such for CXF have been discussed in depth several times in the past on the dev list.  We kind of like what we have.

3) If you don't like something in particular, a discussion on the dev list is more appropriate at this stage than a JIRA issue.
