Updating Packaging Portal of the openSUSE wiki
Hi everyone! Recently, I have been studying the Packaging Portal in the openSUSE wiki. I have found out that there are some pages that could benefit from an update (there are mentions of very old and unmaintained distributions) and some pages with overlapping contents. I want to overhaul the portal a bit and give it some love. For this reason I have started by creating a visual chart with all the pages and I have highlighted some possible changes; you can find it attached to this mail. There are some pages that are out of my expertise (i.e. "Packaging Haskell" and all the gray items in the chart), so it would be a huge help if somebody could check them as well. Attached, there are also the notes about the pages and what could be updated or added. Please note that both the chart and my notes are indicative, and not final by any means. Before actually starting to work on this myself, I wanted to share it on the Factory mailing list to get some feedback and maybe a helping hand, if possible. If you would like to help, feel free to pick anything of your choice and start working on it. Another issue that I have found out is that there are "Packaging X" pages, as well as "X guidelines" and even "Packaging X guidelines". Is there any defined difference that make it worth having three different naming conventions? Otherwise, I think having a consistent naming could make it more polished. I am looking forward to know your thoughts about this. -- Best Regards, Danilo Spinella

I don't think Danilo will remove anything straight away, but reorganize the content that's there and add temporary redirects where needed. Then after some time, these may be removed safely. Right? -- David Anes <david.anes@suse.com>
