[opensuse-gnome] Calling all teams
Hello, I just had a look at our wiki page [1] and lots of stuff was really outdated. We had "Report a bug" pointing to 10.3 etc. I think we really need to have virtual teams that take responsible for the different parts, such as wiki, packaging, testing, bug reporting etc. We currently do have a page for Team [2] and Directory [3] On the Directory [3] page, we list the following topics; * Accessibility * Bug Tracking * Packaging * Meetings * Helping Hands * GNOME Repositories I think we need a wiki specific topic as well, and would like each and everyone of you to add yourself to the topics of interest and where you can help. We should then try to go through these topics once a month (either during the normal meeting or as a separate meeting) to make sure that we keep this up to date. As I see it, people adding themselfs to the wiki topic would have a huge task on their hand, checking pages to make sure they are current. It's also a great way to contribute if you don't have coding skills etc. Opinions?

Well, besides spelling "themselfs" when it should be "themselves", I think its a great idea. But reality is, it's always a challenge. Dividing up the work is a good approach if we all agree that we'll each consistently update our tasked pages. Bigger challenge still is to clean up the wiki overall. Reorganize pages as needed, remove pages as needed, etc. Perhaps we need to have a Wiki Hack Day soon to do this. -- Bryen Yunashko openSUSE Board Member -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org

It will work if we have somebody enforcing the monthly check, ie, adding this to the meeting agenda.

My (radical) opinion is that to keep a wiki up-to-date, we need to delete/archive old pages when they're really too old, except when it's something that we really really want to keep (like the Bugs page).
