From jmpp at macports.org Thu May 8 22:27:22 2008 From: jmpp at macports.org (Juan Manuel Palacios) Date: Thu, 8 May 2008 15:57:22 -0430 Subject: [MacPorts-announce] Open access to the MacPorts Wiki Message-ID: <172A3BD8-1F1F-4DA1-B5C2-04A1EA29EA1F@macports.org> Good afternoon all! Since this morning we've decided to open up editing access to our wiki to all those registered Trac users, not just projects members as it used to be until now. This means that from now on any of you (with a valid Trac registration) will be able to jump right in and start giving us a hand with documentation on almost any topic you might want. So I'd like to make this message an open invitation to all those who wish to contribute with HowTo's, FAQs, testimonials or anything of the sort, we are open to improvements. The guide (guide.macports.org, still in development in some areas) will remain as the most authoritative source of documentation with respect to MacPorts itself, installation, setup, develpment, Portfiles, the project & organization, etc, while the wiki is viewed as a more "live" source of information, e.g. for tutorials on setting up a MAMP server, FAQS and others. It would be nice to try and keep this distinction. Notifications of changes will be posted to the macports-changes mailing list as a diff of the page you are editing against its previous revision, so feel free to subscribe if you´re interested in keeping track of documentation progress. Your editor's information (e- mail address and originating IP) will also be posted in these notifications, for tracking purposes, so please refrain from participating if you have problems with this. So, without anything further to say, please give warm welcome to our now much more open documentation effort! Regards,... -jmpp
