[mapserver-dev] Documentation Meeting Reminder in ~ 1 hour

[Howard Butler]

> All,
>
> I would like to have an IRC meeting next Tuesday at 9:00 AM US  
> Central Standard Time <http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?month=12&day=9&year=2008&hour=9&min=0&sec=0&p1=76 
> > to discuss the ongoing MapServer documentation effort.
>
> Here's a version of the new site:
> http://mapserver.maptools.org/
>
> Here's a 600 page PDF (~2.8 mb) containing all of our docs that have  
> been migrated so far :)
> http://mapserver.maptools.org/MapServer.pdf
>
> Here's the agenda for the meeting:
>
> - Do we need a "homepage", or is the current landing page sufficient  
> if we add some introductory stuff?
> - Do we manage the community section of the website in Trac or  
> Subversion?
> - I have significantly changed the organization of the  
> documentation.  Are we ok with it?
> - What do we do about our gallery (I solicited discussion in another  
> thread but didn't hear anything)?
> - How should we deal with transitioning to http:// 
> mapserver.osgeo.org?  301 the root of mapserver.gis.umn.edu and be  
> done with it?  Attempt to redirect every page we can?  Redirect  
> major sections?  Where to people typically land when they go to the  
> Plone site?
> - When do we transition?  I would like to be moved by Dec 31.
> - Anything else others would like to add.
