Enable the Github wiki or ASF confluence?

Hi team,

Currently, we have user-facing docs for users, but we're lacking
developer-facing docs for developers. By investigating other projects, they
typically use Github wiki or ASF confluence for developer/community related
things.

So here are two questions:

1. Shall we have a developer/community face document hub to manage all the
docs?
2. If so, what is your preference, Github wiki or ASF confluence?

Best,
Jerry

The most concern is that Github wiki is adopted by little projects. The
features of Github wiki are a little simple.

IMO, I'm inclined to use Github wiki for several reasons:

1. The document hub is mainly used to maintain and centralize some
development related things, like design doc, meeting minutes, we don't need
some fancy functionalities for Confluence.
2. We already use Github to manage all the things, like issues, projects,
CIs, it would be better also putting the docs on the Github, so that it
will be easier for users to find out. On the contrary, Confluence is a
different place, we need to manage one more place besides Github.

Thanks
Jerry

+1 (binding) for GitHub wiki, Confluence offers more advanced features, while Wiki is simpler and integrates with GitHub. Since our primary goal is to organize documents and our requirements are straightforward, I prefer using Wiki.

Enable the Github wiki or ASF confluence?

+1(binding) for ASF Confluence. It seems that Confluence is more popular ASF projects.

After surveying on many Apache projects, only Superset uses Github wiki.
Its wiki only shows simple information.
ASF Confluence  is adopted by many projects. It seems more formal.

+1 (non-binding) for ASF Confluence.

Hi Jerry,

Thank you for bringing this up. I fully support establishing a hub for developer and community
 documentation. 

ASF Confluence is preferable due to its richer features, despite GitHub wiki's proximity to our
 codebase.

I endorse moving forward with Confluence for better document management.

Best regards,
Minghuang Li

Hi all,

The Gravitino Confluence workspace is created, we can use this to maintain
the dev-related documentation.

Hi Jerry,

Thanks for starting the thread on these questions. In my opinion, unified proposal management helps developers understand the design and implementation of functional features. From my experience in contributing to many Apache projects, I prefer Confluence to manage proposals. At the same time, all proposals can be named with GIP.

Regards,
Nicholas Jiang

Thanks for your discussion.
1. Yes, I think it's very important to have a similar place to conclude all
the important design documents. It will be convenient for new comers to
study this system.
2. I prefer ASF confluence.
