Hi,
...
Ok, let be concrete! My proposal:
1. A set of people commit for one or two months in order to write notes
and acquire skills about the Infrastructure.
I volunteer! :-)
2. People who are maintaining the Infrastructure schedule time to
answer
the questions of #1.
For instance, we could imagine a weekly or bi-weekly "meeting" where #1
and #2 discuss from 30min to 1h about the various configuration files
in
the various repositories. And these discussions are stored inside
notes.
The meetings could be scheduled on IRC or on some BigBlueButton.
This way, we start some skill transfer and collect materials. Then
depending how it goes, we will be able to structure some documentation.
The notes are the important part. :-) Because it initiates a virtual
circle. Somehow, it avoids the blank page syndrome. It's rewarding
because it provides a concrete base. Etc.
WDYT? Who's in?
A nice idea.
It should be under the banner of 'Guix From Scratch' like the famous
Linux tutorial.
If the lessons are framed like a masters course running through every
stage then the meetups could build from such experimenting.
People could form micro groups (mixing skill levels) and then give their
experiences like that - with rotations for leading and opinion forming.
This could feed into not only the documentation but also the cookbooks.
Heck, it could even permit some Videos that are not over 5 years old....
Kind regards,
Jonathan
