[Geoserver-users] Transition from docs.codehaus.org to geoserver.org

Hey all, sorry for being a bit opaque about this process, it kind of hit right in the middle of a bunch of stuff. But you may have noticed that the wiki is in transition from docs.codehaus.org to geoserver.org

This move has been planned for awhile, as geoserver.org has been set up as the front page, replicating the wiki homepage, so that it would get a high enough google rank so at least the homepage could easily transition over.

That has happened, and in the meantime codehaus got very slow and frustrating. So we got licenses to the confluence software and stood up a version on our own server, replicating the content, so it's all on geoserver.org.

Right now we have content in two locations, which is kind of confusion. I'm inclined to move everything over to geoserver.org, but would like to hear if there's any strenuous objection to that - I realize now I probably should have put this through a GSIP process, just to be sure, and I apologize for not doing that. But we can roll things back if there's a good reason to. I think having it all under geoserver.org looks a bit more professional, and gives us more control over the look and feel.

So if there are no objections I'm hoping to continue the transition over. Please edit on the new space, and we'll work on setting up redirects and making it more obvious the content has moved.

best regards,

Chris

Sorry I've been so crappy about this process. It sounds like there are no objections.

I've not heard anything back on the codehaus task I submitted, which would let us redirect properly. http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/HAUS-1643 - if anyone wants to vote on it or has other means of getting it accomplished.

In the meantime could someone with stronger admin rights on confluence on codehaus than I but some sort of header on all the geoserver pages/spaces that says 'content has moved to http://geoserver.org - please update your bookmarks' or something like that?

thanks,

Chris

I have asked; but so far my ability to change templates / formats etc do not work. I opened up a issue here to look into that (http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/HAUS-1644)

I changed the Navigation page on codehaus to have a "We have Moved" with a link to the new website. If I ever get the ability to change the format again I can at least provide the users with a link to the same page on the new website.

The permissions related to attachments seem to be more restrictive on the
geoserver.org wiki than they are on the docs.codehause.org wiki. On the
geoserver.org wiki, I can see and 'edit' the attachments, but I cannot add
any new attachments to any pages. Can this be changed?

One of the main advantages of it on geoserver.org is that it's now much easier for us to change. So unless there was some weird upgrade to confluence that prevents that it should be easy for us to modify. Arne, could you look in to it?

Sorry, got lost in the shuffle.

I've updated the GEOSDOC and GEOSDEV spaces to allow attachment uploads by registered users. Previously this was only true for GEOS. Let me know if there are more problems (feel free to CC me regarding Confluence issues, so my email client highlights them).
