Hola,
TLDR: request for council to discuss and vote on whether we sould move
most of our wiki pages (internal) to http://community.kde.org.
As outlined in a previous mail on this topic [1], I have gotten ever
so annoyed with our current wiki (powered by MoinMoin) that I started
playing with the idea of moving to the KDE wikis as they are well
maintained, we don't have a lot of pages, mediawiki is generally nicer
and KDE's wikis do have exctingly beautiful editorial templates (as a
result of userbase.kde being intented as user facing documentation).
I would ask the council to take this to a vote.
Currently we appear to have around 12 generally useful pages on the
wiki [2]. All of them contain internal team documentation rather than
anything user facing all of these could just as well be kept on a KDE
wiki.
There are however pages (namely the pre-release wiki pages a la [3])
that probably should not be moved. I would argue that most of these
probably should not be used anyway, but instead the content should be
copied to the actual website, or created there (pointing from the
website to the wiki is generally a bad thing because the wiki is
mostly for internal stuff and very confusing to people who try to look
at other stuff in the wiki).
If there are any questions, please ask.
