Hi all, We still have so much potential to get some awesome documentation written for our community, and in the LoCo meeting yesterday I proposed a LoCo Docs Day. The idea is that everyone will spend that day helping to write some documentation.
I have put up a page at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoDocsDay to outline the day and what needs writing. Importantly, if you want to write some documentation, don't feel like you have to wait until that day, go ahead and write the docs now! :) These are the docs that I think we need to work on: LocoFAQ - Thw FAQ should be a full and detailed page filled with all kinds of questions about the LoCo project. If something is missing, add it. LoCoTeamHowto - This is a concise and clear guide to running LoCo teams. We want this to be an expansive and clear document about running a team. LoCoWorkingWithOtherGroups - what are the best ways to work with LUGs and other local groups? LoCoRunningInstallfests - let us know the best way to run an installfest and the gotchas when installing Ubuntu on different machines. LoCoCreatingWebsite - what is the best method of creating a website for your team? LoCoCreatingForum - how do you set up a forum for your team? LoCoCreatingPlanet - how do you create a Planet site to aggregate your LoCo team's blogs? Identify how you do this with a tutorial on this page. LoCoCreatingMap - how do you create a user map to show where the users in your team are? Also explain how to make this map available on your website. As you can see, a number of these docs are for creating resource such as forums, websites, planets and maps - those of you who have done this, please share your knowledge with a simple step-by-step introduction to do these things. :) So, lets make our docs rock! :) Jono -- Jono Bacon Ubuntu Community Manager jono(at)ubuntu(dot)com www.ubuntu.com / www.jonobacon.org -- loco-contacts mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/loco-contacts
