[geeklog-devel] The Geeklog Wiki needs YOUR help!

[cordiste]

Hello everybody,

Good news for the wiki. Just a question, if it is a kind of new start,
why don't we consider migrate to dokuwiki? We have the dokuwiki
plugin, an integration to Geeklog
http://www.geeklog.net/article.php/20090218063636626

Maybe it would be easier to manage contributors and very important
wiki pages would be include in the search function on geeklog.net. You
can see a demo page on http://geeklog.fr/wiki/doku.php/main-page made
with an online converter found on
http://johbuc6.coconia.net/doku.php/mediawiki_to_dokuwiki_converter

Thanks,


::Ben

> regarding development, but very little about the actual daily use of Geeklog.

> both of which were out of date to begin with. I guess it would be best

> to start over fresh here and describe the installation process as of

> Geeklog 1.6. I wonder if anyone from outside the core team would be

> interested in trying to write up new installation instructions in "plain

> English"? Jason C. Levine did a good job at that a few years ago, but

> the installation process has changed a lot since then and it's time for

> a fresh start, IMO.

>

> In the long run, I'd like the Geeklog Wiki to become the main source for

> the Geeklog documentation. We will always ship some form of

> documentation with Geeklog, but the wiki could become the master source

> from which that documentation is fed and updated. And things like the

> Plugin API and theme documentation should probably only live in the wiki.

>

> So, if you ever thought about contributing to Geeklog but you couldn't

> because you're not a programmer, here's an opportunity to help us out.

> You will need an account for the wiki, but we're giving those out freely

> (self registration is only disabled because of those pesky spammers).

> Small contributions, such as clarifying sentences, correcting typos, or

> adding links between existing pages are also very welcome.
