--/04w6evG8XlLl3ft Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Not a complete list of things to do to the docs by any means, but I thought I'd share my doc/ TODO list with you all. These aren't ordered in any special way. I promise not to be offended if someone decides that they want to do one of these :-) * Write more of it. * Think up a cool documentation project slogan; "We wrote it, so please read it"? * Break up the Handbook into smaller handbooks. * Reorganise the FAQ. * Bring the FDP Primer up to date with the latest changes. * Get indexing working properly. * Supplement the ASCII art in the FAQ, Handbook, and other documents with proper images. Retain the ASCII art for those people that can't view images. * Investigate XML, XSL, and XSLT, and work out how hard it would be to=20 support them in the docs. This may also involve pushing XML support in the base system (config files, et al). * Investigate passiveTeX as a way of producing PDF. See http://users.ox.ac.uk/~rahtz/passivetex/ for details. * Assist with reorganising and restructuring the web site. * Put together a docbook.css file that doesn't look like a throwback to the sixties. * Get Ruslan, or one of the others, to write a section for the primer about manual pages. * Work out how to incrementally move manual pages to DocBook. Stumbling block is efficiently going from DocBook to *roff. * Get more reliable conspectus writers. * Look at OMF (http://www.ibiblio.org/osrt/omf/faq.html) in more detail, and investigate the ScrollKeeper project (see SourceForge). --=20 FreeBSD: The Power to Serve http://www.freebsd.org/ FreeBSD Documentation Project http://www.freebsd.org/docproj/ --- 15B8 3FFC DDB4 34B0 AA5F 94B7 93A8 0764 2C37 E375 --- --/04w6evG8XlLl3ft Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.4 (FreeBSD) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iEYEARECAAYFAjqpJrEACgkQk6gHZCw343Vl1QCcDPs1983J5BMYPE84HlVWcczH 2DgAniBJc0x2dXlB+n8oguSXXxmksmeY =rajI -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --/04w6evG8XlLl3ft-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
