Agenda items
If something you want to discuss at this session is missing, add it here:
- feasability of a doc wiki with contributor write access
- dead tree Table of Contents: do we divide entire Handbook into 3 or does it make more sense to publish sections that belong together?
- status of perforce for dead tree version
- publication goals for 2011
- further discussion on selling Kindle/epubs with proceeds going to Foundation
- status of getting someone to write FreeBSD weekly summaries / assist @hrs with Release Notes
- short status report about the cvs→svn conversion (@bcr)
- set date(s) for docathon(s) to work on and hopefully close doc PRs A good list of PRs to start from is http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr-summary.cgi?category=doc&state=patched
