I'm in favor of a template. Lowers the amount of thinking to get started.

Thanks,

Sorry for my late response. I am also confused about Vicky's intent for this motion.

If it is because Vicky would like to see the template quickstart checked in via github, then I can see that has already been done, and I'm fine with that.

However, I suspect Vicky has concerns about:

1. Adding a new "generic" quickstart template.
I'm in favour of adding a new generic template. Feedback we have received from documentarians in TheGoodDocsProject was that there are strong reasons for not using an exemplar template (as I originally set up a long time ago).
1.1 It projects favouritism and potential resentment.
1.2 Successful projects are continually changing, and there is a high chance that your exemplar project will become out of date. It is better to create an imaginary project which doesn't change

2. Concerns about the content of the template quickstart (which currently still references udig). 2.1 I agree with Vicky's concerns. I suggest we make the template "generic". When I have a spare moment I'll provide more detailed feedback in Felicity's call for review.

Hi,

Yesterday I closed my gitea PR, so I think the motion is no longer needed.

We did create a QuickStart template and it was merged in a PR on github (not gitea) because that triggers a build and we could check if it broke anything (which it didn’t).

I hope that makes sense.

Thanks
Felicity

I'm a little confused as to why this is MOTION for a vote. Are we voting
on if we think there should be a template Quickstart? That seems to be
the relevant question, and the issues raised could be addressed if we
are in agreement that we want a template.

Thanks,
Alex
