<h1>Open issues</h1>
|
| 20 |
We'll have to discuss these issues sometime in the future:
|
| 21 |
<ol>
|
| 22 |
<li><strong>Make tools available.</strong>
|
| 23 |
<p>
|
| 24 |
Chris is currently working on a few additions to debiandoc-sgml.
|
| 25 |
<p>
|
| 26 |
<li><strong>Decide which documents we want to have.</strong>
|
| 27 |
<p>
|
| 28 |
<li><strong>Choose objectives and TOC's for each document.</strong>
|
| 29 |
<p>
|
| 30 |
Have each of the documents point to a page which gives the
|
| 31 |
objectives and TOC for that document as they is currently understood.
|
| 32 |
<p>
|
| 33 |
<li><strong>Decide how many packages we need.</strong>
|
| 34 |
<p>
|
| 35 |
Having one package per document has the following advantages:
|
| 36 |
<ul>
|
| 37 |
<li>Packages will be small. If a single document is updated, one does
|
| 38 |
not have to download all documents.
|
| 39 |
<li>Things are clearer if the package maintainer is the
|
| 40 |
document maintainer (i.e. author).
|
| 41 |
<li>One can easily report bugs against documents.
|
| 42 |
</ul>
|
| 43 |
but also the following disadvantages:
|
| 44 |
<ul>
|
| 45 |
<li>We already have enough packages and some users already complain
|
| 46 |
that there are too many.
|
| 47 |
</ul>
|
| 48 |
<p>
|
| 49 |
Here is a <a href="packages.html">proposal</a>.
|
| 50 |
<p>
|
| 51 |
<li><strong>Decide what we want to distribute in our packages.</strong>
|
| 52 |
<p>
|
| 53 |
<li><strong>Define priorities and sign up authors.</strong>
|
| 54 |
<p>
|
| 55 |
<li><strong>Decide a policy for translations of our manuals into non-english
|
| 56 |
languages.</strong>
|
| 57 |
</ol>
