We should strongly consider migrating our packaging guidelines *out* of the openSUSE Wiki into a documentation site system. Wikis are terrible for navigation, discovery, SEO, and content control.
Fedora migrated their guidelines out of the wiki last year[1][2] and Debian has always had theirs not in a wiki[3]. When Fedora moved, they were able to simplify their change control process to just "make a pull request and the packaging committee would review it". I'm not
Yeah, that idea also came to my mind too when I wrote those mails but then one thing at a time.. The challenge here might be that we do not really have a committee, even though some page lists some names. We do have a review team that needs to know the policies though. So would have to figure out who would be in charge of reviewing pull requests and how to sync with the review team in case both groups are distinct.
Since our current packaging documentation is a fork from Fedora guidelines from 2011, maybe we could collaborate with them on common documentation, which highlights differences when needed.
