🐥 DIVIDE, AND CONQUER
I had this discussion myself with other people. In my opinion the more
atomized the information is, the easier and most understandable it is.
I am completely against writing wikis as they where pages of a book.
Because precisely the great power of a wiki is to show exactly as much
information as you need, and nothing else.
As example, I am rewriting the bug triage manual. And you can see it is
now much easier than having a long manual:
- Before: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Triage
- After:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/One%20Hundred%20Papercuts/Work-flow/Triage
🔤 FIRST COMES FIRST
What happens is some people say that having everything in one page makes
it easier to make offline versions of the documentation. But for me it
doesn't look a priority over having clarity.
🐢 RUNNING LIKE THE TURTLE, NOT THE HARE
Lastly, I think that it is very important to get accustomed to making
decisions slowly in consensus.
I suspect that many people like doing work in the computer because they
can make plenty of decisions themselves, and they haven't to agree with
others. But simply a project needs mutual agreement, and you are always
welcome to take any decision back.
This way decisions can last for a long time.
