Hi DocTeam!

tonight will be the CC-meeting and it would be nice if we can get some
decisions on the DocTeam as well. I will not be able to make it
probably, if it starts earlier i'll be at the beginning if not i might
be at the end... anyway some thoughts i think that need to be covered:

It would be good if we have a team-leader, it might bring more
structure to our team and make us more productive and effective.

What do people think of the wiki so far? I find it hard to find the
important stuf (=Howto pages etc). How to make the wiki more
accessible.

Other languages. Are the toplinks ok (look at NefFrontPage) for an
example? Naming for other languages, i like ComoSomething for spanish
Howto's better then SpanishWikiPage. It will be easier to find stuff
if pages are name logically/consistantly.

What to do with the new wiki, does it work, when will we start to use
it? What will be the preferred markup-language? Kupu is easiest but
then all pages will look differently, moin is easiest, then we still
have structured and restructured text. The last two are powerfull but
need better, easier documentation.

If we are supposed to start using the new wiki then we need help and
documentation. I have been making pages but it is difficult to make
normal pages, links to other pages. I do not understand why some pages
are Singletons and some are not, why do some pages pop up in the
side-bar and how do i remove them from there? And how do i put a page
i made in the side-bar? Can we ask wiki-questions on the
ubuntu-doc-mailinglist, on irc?

The ubuntu-doc list seems a really good idea. We should thank whoever
thought that up. Off course it would be nice if in the future at least
the documentation-leader would be in the loop of changes that have
influence on the docteam. He could the keep the rest of the team
up-to-date.

thanks for your time and comments,

greets, AP
