Hi PSC,<div><br></div><div>Just wanted to agree with Markus on the Wiki comment:</div><div>With pgRouting we are happy if there is even a single contribution like adding a Wiki page or fixing an error ... it doesn't happen usually ;-)</div>
<div>There is no need in my opinion to make it more difficult for users if they want to contribute. With TRAc wiki you can rollback changes anyway. </div><div>There is only one exception of a wiki page pgRouting doesn't allow to edit: it's the "home" page and the reason was that there was some spam bot adding links to this page.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div>Daniel</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2010/5/4 Markus Neteler <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:markus.neteler@iasma.it">markus.neteler@iasma.it</a>></span><br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">hi PSC,<br><br>I have received the Skype history of the meeting, here some related comments. Sorry for the<br>late reply but I was travelling without internet connection.<br>
I cite chunks of the dicussion to refresh your memories:<br>
<br>[3:37:06 PM] Nicolas BOZON: agenda 2?<br>[3:37:09 PM] Massimiliano Cannata: I would meke it more clear in the voting <br> process, +2 witrh the voting of the majority of all eligible members an no veto (-1)<br>[3:37:13 PM] venkatesh_raghavan: Agenda 2: * Launch review (discuss initial<br>
feedback) and next steps<br>[3:38:03 PM] venkatesh_raghavan: +1 for maxi's suggestion about clarifying the<br> voting process,<br>[3:41:09 PM] Gérald Fenoy: +1 also as for me (it seems that we have to wait for<br>
no veto from others to follow the process correctly, nevetheless it seems that<br>
no mention can be voted during any PSC meeting this way if anybody isn't able to join)<br>[3:41:30 PM] S.Sekiguchi: +1 for clarifying the process, if necessary<br>[3:43:38 PM] venkatesh_raghavan: Maxi, can you hack the guideline to clarify the<br>
voting issue, and we can approve corrections by voting on PSC ML.<br>[3:44:08 PM] Massimiliano Cannata: ok, i will<br><br>--->> Suggestion: take a look at RFC3 of GRASS which has been thought<br> through quite a bit:<br>
<a href="http://download.osgeo.org/grass/grass6_progman/rfc/rfc3_psc.html" target="_blank">http://download.osgeo.org/grass/grass6_progman/rfc/rfc3_psc.html</a><br><br><br>[3:59:28 PM] venkatesh_raghavan: Any suggestions for svn, wiki/trac access by<br>
new members?<br>[3:59:55 PM] Nicolas BOZON: i think that we must welcome people that know the<br> code and have good remarks<br>[4:00:29 PM] Gérald Fenoy: yes I would appriciate your comments as I can't<br> understand for instance how somebody outside the PSC can modify a wiki page<br>
writen by a PSC memebr<br>[4:00:57 PM] venkatesh_raghavan: Documentation etc. also as important, I think.<br>[4:01:07 PM] Gérald Fenoy: I think that we have to make some specific wiki<br> section writable only by PSC memebrs<br>
<br>-->> I have been using/managing Wikis for > 6 years. I am not aware of any case that the<br> GRASS PSC Wiki pages or OSGeo committee main pages have been modified in<br> an undesired way by non-PSC/non-committee members.<br>
Suggestion: keep it simple. Permission management is overkill and not needed<br> since you can rollback changes easily. Just put a disclaimer on top of such pages<br> that they are reserved for editing by the PSC.<br>
<br><br>[4:02:16 PM] Gérald Fenoy: what about defining a process of acceptance for new<br>documentation proposal from the community ?<br><br>-->> this is AGAINST any concept of a Wiki ;-) and IMHO an obstacle for fast progress.<br>
I got the OSGeo gadget for having more than 5000 Wiki edits, especially by making<br> the garbage collector. And there was nothing bad, just incomplete info. If you put<br> obstacles in place, then you don't even obtain text snippets and all the work remains<br>
to be done by us....<br><br><br>[4:28:43 PM] venkatesh_raghavan: We can generate somekind of webstats for PSC<br>members maybe.<br>[4:29:40 PM] Massimiliano Cannata: yes, it is interesting to see viewed pages,<br>
downloads, etc..<br>
<br>--> awstats, trac stats, like<br> <a href="http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/TicketStatsMacro" target="_blank">http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/TicketStatsMacro</a><br> <a href="http://grass.osgeo.org/logs-bin/awstats.pl?config=grass.osgeo.org" target="_blank">http://grass.osgeo.org/logs-bin/awstats.pl?config=grass.osgeo.org</a><br>
