To Novell: please allow the community to write docs, that will be included in the distro for offline use (in RPM package, HTML format).
as a very lon time linudoc contributor, I know quite well the problem, but have no simple solution :-( A goos documentation have to be well organised/structured and this is simply not the ordinary way of thinking of most people. Wikipedia IS a very good information source, but not so well organised (and can't be better, probably). SuSE manuals used to be very good, thanks to a very good writing team (and probably very expensive too). The goal should be to have a much bigger (with tranlations) documentation with nearly the same money. I do not have a solution. CVS or SVN are of course a good step forward. writing and translating doc is a very hard work, and even more as a voluntary work - I myself took some vacation from suse documentation for a month now, exausted by 6 month of continuous work. the truth is that documentation should be written 3 month ahead of the final product (for translating and printing delays) and this is quite impossible if we always wan to freeze the distro at the last minute jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://dodin.org/galerie_photo_web/expo/index.html http://lucien.dodin.net http://fr.susewiki.org/index.php?title=Gérer_ses_photos --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-doc+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-doc+help@opensuse.org
