Hello guys,
I can help on documentation in my spare time. I tryed to submit a patch for ITS#6339 in the past but I don't know why it was not accepted and I did not received any feedback about it. There is some TODO list for documentation?
There is a TODO list which, I can't believe, I started in 2008 and haven't made much progress:
OpenLDAP Test suite Go through Samba stuff again OpenLDAP contrib scripts for generating LDIF etc. OpenLDAP Admin Guide - Intro Tighten "LDAP vs RDBMS" Check "What is slapd and what can it do?" "Replicated Directory Service" - add MultiMaster picture. "Configuring slapd" - check DIT layout is right "The slapd Configuration File" - check backends are correct and in above "Access Control" - Finish "Converting from slapd.conf(5) to a cn=config directory format" Backends section to finish Overlays section to finish Maintenance section to finish Monitoring section to finish Tuning section to finish More in Troubleshooting section More in Upgrading from 2.3.x section Check "Recommended OpenLDAP Software Dependency Versions" section Do some "Real World OpenLDAP Deployments and Examples" "OpenLDAP Software Contributions" to complete "Configuration File Examples" to complete
Some are done and I'd rather build a build farm RESTful API now so we can have a central build farm. We did get a server from Google for that with 32GB Ram but last I heard it was down. Kurt?
I'll check out your ITS and also we talked about a new wiki at some point?
Ok, that's fine!
I don't remember if we talked about a wiki in the past but it's definitely a good idea. I mean, if available, we could start to migrate/review the content of openldap documentation page (AdminGuid, FAQ, etc) to the wiki.

While Wikis seem to be attractive at first glance the biggest caveat is that you can't cut a doc release of all the pages for a certain software release.
In other open source projects which have all the docs in a Wiki this turned out to be a major issue.
