Re: [DISCUSS] Updating the C* website design

Perhaps I should start another thread, but I have started to outline a more solution-based approach to the docs that I was considering implementing. See that here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1aeNtgyPAsKcNa0GSKvl2ywlFEj30714ry4Sb5turWeE/edit?usp=sharing This outline is not complete, just m

Re: [DISCUSS] Updating the C* website design

That all makes sense, Lorina! My thought was to add a consideration for content/IA to the checklist Mick had shared (in addition to the UI/design), but no need if that's already being handled. On Wed, Jul 29, 2020 at 1:28 PM Brandon Williams wrote: > On Wed, Jul 29, 2020 at 3:06 PM Lorina Polan

Re: [DISCUSS] Updating the C* website design

To address Melissa's comments - the main reason that this proposal is offered right now is that the Documentation renewal involves a change to a new static site generator, Antora (https://antora.org). Because of this change, the UI for cassandra.apache.org/doc must be rebuilt using the Antora UI (h

Feedback request on minor JMX interface incompatibility for CASSANDRA-15937

Following up on Mick's email about interface incompatible changes, CASSANDRA-15937 is ready for review. In my opinion, this just fixes some bugs in CASSANDRA-7544 patch that slipped through the original review, but before we review & merge fixes I wanted to ask if anybody had any objections to merg

I would offer that design is important, but content matters more -- so would suggest adding content strategy/development and information architecture to the checkpoints list.

Re: [Discussion] Windows support

Personally I still use CCM on windows pretty often and the C# driver even has an appveyor job that runs tests with CCM on windows (the drivers smoke tests job does this as well). Setting up clusters with multiple nodes is not that easy with Docker and WSL 2 because the nodes run inside a VM. In re

Re: [Discussion] Windows support

Hey Yuki, Having just come off CASSANDRA-15861 , where having to take Windows into account certainly complicated things, I'd be in favor of removing Windows support as soon as possible. Another thing that comes to mind is DataStax Desktop: ht

I pushed for Windows support 5+ years ago but I just use WSL now. (WSL2 makes it easier for Docker but it's not required.) On Tue, Jul 28, 2020 at 8:41 PM Yuki Morishita wrote: > Hi, > > I'd like to raise my concern about Windows support, as we are getting > closer to 4.0 release. > > Since the

[DISCUSS] Updating the C* website design

We have funds on offer to the project to hire a contractor to update the website. Personally I think this is a fantastic opportunity, it would be great to see the website afresh in coordination with the 4.0 release. With no up-front defining goals or improvements specified, if we go forth with th

Hi Dinesh, While we think that maintaining the drivers together as a long-term goal would be beneficial as it would allow the drivers to evolve together and adopt similar design decisions, we also understand that donating 7 drivers at once may put the whole operation at risk, as some folks here al
