[DOC] Re-starting our OFBiz Documentation Effort

[Sharan Foga]

Hi All

Our documentation effort has stalled a little.  Partly due to me being involved in other Apache activities related to the EU Roadshow. Anyway that event is now completed so I’d like to look at getting people started working on our documentation again.

So first let’s see where we are. This was our team list of people wanting to help out.

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/OFBiz+Documentation+Team

Mentors
Please can you contact the people you are mentoring to see if they are still interested in helping out and if they need your support

Volunteers
If you don’t have a mentor but still want to help out then please respond to this thread.

JIRA Status
We are tracking work related to the Human Resources manual under the following JIRA

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-10251

I think we need to focus on getting as much content as possible. Once we have the content then we can re-arrange it or format it as necessary.

Our aim is to provide enough information for someone who has not seen the OFBIz Human Resources application before, to have enough information about each of the areas to be able to know how to use them.

Next Step
Review the patches that have been submitted and commit them or provide feedback
Continue to migrate, update and complete the content for the Human Resources manual

So let’s see if we can get things moving again :-) and as always all ideas, comments and feedback welcome.

Thanks
Sharan

If there are any volunteers that need mentoring at this moment I might
be able to assist. And it's great to re-energize this critical project
that seems to be more necessary than ever.
