HOWTO get the OFBiz website updated?

Ruth Hoffman-2
Hello All:
How can I get my e-books listed on the OFBiz website? I have two books
that I've written and I would like to make them available to anyone
interested. Specifically, I'd like to list them under "Learning".

    (http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBADMIN/OFBiz+Related+Books)

If you give me access to the site, I can do the HTML edits myself.

Regards,
Ruth

Do you not have write access to the docs spaces or are you looking for  
write access to the actual site in SVN?  If you're looking for that -  
good luck.  I've been a committer for almost 3 years and still don't  
have access to that!

Cheers,
Tim

Hi Tim,

Did you ever ask to have access to it ?

Hi Tim:
I'd just like to write to the website location
http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBADMIN/OFBiz+Related+Books.
Not sure if this is doc spaces or part of SVN. Don't know how the
project website with Apache is set up.
Thanks
Ruth

Re: HOWTO get the OFBiz website updated?

So, you're just saying you'd like to write to that page - that makes  
perfect sense and is something that I know that David (and possibly  
me) - but I'm not sure how to make it happen.   Anyways, I'm sure that  
Wiki privileges will be attainable.

Cheers,
Tim

Tim,

If the page Ruth needs to modify is in the SVN space, then she could do
an SVN checkout, make her changes, and provide a patch.

Re: HOWTO get the OFBiz website updated?

Tim Ruppert
It looks like she just wants to edit the page - which I can give perms  
to - but I would like for David or whoever makes those decisions to  
say - Yeah, go ahead Ruth!  I doubt it will be an issue, I've just  
never granted this stuff myself :)  As for the SVN stuff - that's  
definitely the way to go.

Cheers,
Tim

Re: HOWTO get the OFBiz website updated?

In reply to this post by Ruth Hoffman-2

I'm not in a position to approve or disapprove anything... in fact the  
whole idea is a bit silly since it's never been done like that, and  
really never should be done like that.

The PMC votes on all decisions related to write access to resources  
(at least since the PMC has existed, ie since joining the ASF). I'll  
certainly participate in the vote, and my vote will be one of the 12  
possible votes with current the 12 PMC members:

http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBADMIN/Apache+OFBiz+PMC+Members+and+Committers

To contact the PMC please send a message to: [hidden email]

About this space, the OFBADMIN one, it's traditionally been only  
changeable by PMC members. The rest are changeable by all committers,  
and by anyone who expresses an interest in working on documentation  
and is voted in by the PMC.

The easiest way to get a change into that page is to make a change in  
the wiki (OFBIZ) space or somewhere, and then submit a request by Jira  
or the dev list to have that content moved to the page in the OFBADMIN  
space.

BTW, Ruth you currently have write access to the OFBENDUSER, OFBTECH,  
and of course the OFBIZ space since anyone with an account can write  
there.

-David

Thanks David. I now understand. I shall request access from the
committee. Don't want to make any more work for anyone since its not a
big deal for me to do it myself.

Re: HOWTO get the OFBiz website updated?

David E. Jones-2

Ruth,

As I mentioned in that other message the general idea with the  
OFBADMIN space is that it is maintained by PMC members. To be more  
blunt, the vote may go another way (no responses to your message to  
the private@ mailing list yet), but chances are you will not be  
granted permission in that space because you are not on the PMC. In  
fact, before we can even decide we have to discuss whether or not to  
change the general practice so far of only allowing PMC members to  
change the admin space documents. In other words, it's not a simple  
thing especially as it brings up a request for a change in how things  
are currently managed.

In other other words, it might be easiest to put your content in a  
wiki (OFBIZ space) page, and then request that the images and wiki  
text be moved over to the page in the OFBADMIN space.

-David

Re: HOWTO get the OFBiz website updated?

Ruth Hoffman-2
In reply to this post by David E. Jones-2
Hello David and the List:
Well, seems I've been able to add the content I'd like to have placed in
the OFBADMIN space to the OFBIZ Wiki space. Please take a look:
    http://docs.ofbiz.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=9071
Would it be possible to have this moved over to the OFBADMIN space and
placed in the Learning section after the "The Beginner's Tutorial"?

TIA
Ruth

Hi Ruth,

In my opinion this would fit more at http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBADMIN/OFBiz+Related+Books (learning section)
