Hi List,

I have added a new branch to the branches part of the repository. I
thought
it would be a good idea to have a place in the wiki to document what
the
branches are, what they intend to do and to have a central place to
document
what's going on there. For the new branch, I thought about
documenting
the
state and ongoing work there, instead of adding a file and
checking it
in to
svn, that would be in the way when later reintegrating the finished
stuff.

  A VERY good idea...maybe a main heading -- Development Planning
(or a name
of your choosing) -- under Project Planning. Thanks for bringing this
up...I was just wondering about some of the branches the other day.

isnt that what we already have at
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Source_Code

here we have branches/tags etc documented.

That contains some general information. There I would only add a link to the page with more details about a specific branch.


why should we make a new place ?
no need of course, just a problem to find the hidden secrets in our
nirvana ;-)

Without search engine everyone is lost.

There exist for example already the description of /openoffice/branches/alg/aw080 on https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Aw080_documentation

Yes, thats why I am asking. I could not really find it, so a place in
the confluence wiki would be better. I think this would fit perfectly
somewhere in the development planning area so that everyone interested
could find what is worked on and evtl. gets even motivated to step in.
Isnt that the place people look at when they try to find out what is
going on? I would be ready to document my existing branches in brief and
extensively for new ones. An initial page per branch and maybe a short
description would be enough as a minimum (maybe autogenerated when
someone creates a branch in trunk, adding creation date and
creator...just dreaming).

I would like to keep it in MWiki. Infos about AW080 is there and pages of past, larger developments are also in Mwiki.


In that form it may also give a preview of what may be coming to the
next versions (without forcing it, it should be train model based). E.g.
with accessibility when it would have been documented there it would be
more clear where it comes from, evtl. how far it is progressed and if it
will be in one of the next versions (e.g. include a single 'progress'
percent number).

Kay, I guess you are the one who could prepare a place for these (if we
agree to do so)...?

The start page of MWiki has some outdated informations right top. Rework there is necessary anyway. So I suggest putting a link list of actual development activities there, put each content under a meaningfule title in the MWiki, tag it with category Development, and trust the search engines.

Kind regards
Regina
