Wiki structure
by Peter Flodin 27 Oct '05

27 Oct '05

I would like to start a discussion on the general structure of the wiki (including the side and top navigation bars). I guess the first thing is to get the view of the openSUSE core team, as they probably have some plans already in terms of general site navigation etc. and how the different laguage wikis will integrate. Everything contributed to the wiki at the moment is reached through the Documentation page, this to me is simply wrong. I don't think that the project pages, wishlists etc are documentation in that sense. I propose that we have either a "wiki" link or perhaps a "Community" Link on the side navigation, probably replacing the How to Participate link. I have more ideas, and areas to cover, especially on the the User Documentation page - we need to discuss and reach a consensus on what the links and layout should be. Although I'll let the people on the list (if there are any yet :-) enter into the discussion first. Pflodo

And some time passed, and the news was good :-) Excellent news Adrian and thank you for your update on my wiki page: http://www.opensuse.org/User:Pflodo/Open_Letter_to_OpenSUSE_&_Novell Regards, Peter Flodin.

www.opensuse.org and opensuse.org
by houghi 23 Oct '05

When I eneter a webpage, I need to add the www, because otherwise I do get send to the frontpage. I asume that this is because of the fact that opensuse.org is another server then www.opensuse.org. houghi@penne : mx -aw opensuse.org Information on opensuse.org with ns2.novell.com. as primary nameserver: A record and CNAME: opensuse.org. 300 IN A 130.57.4.70 Record for www.opensuse.org: www.opensuse.org. 300 IN A 130.57.4.24 Still would be nice if I could just type http://openSUSE.org/SUPER instead of http://www.openSUSE.org/SUPER houghi -- Quote correct (NL) http://www.briachons.org/art/quote/ Zitiere richtig (DE) http://www.afaik.de/usenet/faq/zitieren Quote correctly (EN) http://www.netmeister.org/news/learn2quote.html

Why does OpenSuSE mailing-list are on ezmlm?
by Mark Hellman 13 Oct '05

13 Oct '05

I know this is not exactly the right place to ask this question, but among the available mailing-lists it is the closest to the subject. OpenSuSE mailing-list are managed by ezmlm. This is a strange choice considering: 1. There is no ezmlm RPM package in OpenSuSE. It is a bit odd that a distribution uses a software on its servers that it does not even distribute... 2. Mailman has many more features and has a RPM package in OpenSuSE. Why then ezmlm?! Mark

Differences between logged in and not
by houghi 13 Oct '05

13 Oct '05

When I am not logged in, I can edit just a section by clicking edit at the right. When I am logged in, I can only edit the whole page, wich can be a burden with large pages. Is this a bug or a feature? Is this wiki or openSUSE specific? houghi -- Quote correct (NL) http://www.briachons.org/art/quote/ Zitiere richtig (DE) http://www.afaik.de/usenet/faq/zitieren Quote correctly (EN) http://www.netmeister.org/news/learn2quote.html

{{TOCright}} looks awefull
by houghi 11 Oct '05

11 Oct '05

On http://www.opensuse.org/Mirrors_Released_Version {{TOCright}} is added. Looks extremely awefull. A screenshot: http://houghi.org/shots/openSUSE.org001.png I have looked and can not figure out a way to solve this. The problem seems to be that it clashes with the {{Note|XXX }} Anybody with WiKi experience a solution for this? houghi -- Quote correct (NL) http://www.briachons.org/art/quote/ Zitiere richtig (DE) http://www.afaik.de/usenet/faq/zitieren Quote correctly (EN) http://www.netmeister.org/news/learn2quote.html

Language wikis
by Peter Flodin 11 Oct '05

11 Oct '05

I noticed that the roadmap has been updated that opensuse is about to release language wikis in french, german, spanish, and we were told earlier that this would be like the Wikipedia way of doing it. This implies that each language has its own Wiki database, and interwiki linking will be supported. I know that time will tell, but is the Image: and User: namespace shared across the different language wikis? Otherwise wiki users home pages will belong to one specific language, and all images will need to be uploaded for each langauage. Pflodo

Uploading multiple images
by Martin Mewes 11 Oct '05

11 Oct '05

Hi all, I am just stumbling on the point if it is possible somehow to upload multiple images at once instead of doing them one by one? Right now I am working on some FAQs and HOWTOs with many images and to now I upload them to my own Webspace and link them directly in the wiki. I think that this would be a very useful feature for documentation contributors like me. bis dahin/kind regards Martin Mewes -- Oberhalb der Kulminationspunkte forstwirtschaftlicher Bestaende tendieren die Dezibelwerte gegen den Nullpunkt. http://www.larsschuette.de/ -> Klugscheisser ;-)
