This is a more detailed proposal from me where I try to figure out
which parts of the Debian infrastructure we can/should use.
o http://skolelinux.org/ - I would like to forward this front-page to a
wiki where a lot of our information is present and at least most of
it is linked up. Maybe to one or more SVN-dumps to
http://skolelinux.org/<svn-dump>/ where our documentation-tree from
d.skolelinux.no/documentation/ is a great example.
Can we use Debian's webpages for this? I don't think so, because we
don't have enough DD's for commiting patches to the webpages,
right?
o http://skolelinux.org/wiki/ - our main site where the content is
like described above. The Germans have done a great job with their
wiki, so I believe we should be able to use the same technology for
our international site. But, if this should work out we must agree
that the master language is english. Does anyone have a problem
with that?
And will the Germans move some of their content (which is of
interest to the international and technical visitors) from their
wiki at skolelinux.de/wiki/ to this wiki?
Could we use http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu for this? Yes
probably. The only challenge I see is that if we for one reason
would like to do any changes deeper into the wiki, we don't have
permissions to that. I'm not sure if this will be a problem. Can
we have the opinion of you guys administrating the wiki on
http://skolelinux.de/wiki/ ?? Do we have other arguments for not
using wiki.debian.org?
o http://blogs.skolelinus.org/ - I'm not a blogger nor a blog-admin
myself, so if anyone have any comments that would have been great.
I don't believe Debian have any blogging-infrastructure, so we'll
have to set up our own.
o http://planet.skolelinux.org/ - Can we use planet.debian.org? Is
there only DD's that are linked up there? And planet.debian.org's
target is probably Developers not users, teachers, and admins, or
am I wrong?
o http://skolelinux.org/doc/ - I believe this can be a good place do
dump a directory from SVN with our Skolelinux-specific
documentation. That is the documentation that has to do with our
CD, architecture, the sysadmin-documentation and so on. I don't
believe Debian has any place where this fit in?
o http://skolelinux.org/schools/ - The list of schools that we
already have today.
o http://bugs.skolelinux.org/ - Can we use bugs.d.o? Yes, for a lot
of bugs we can and we should, but I don't think pointing teachers
to bugs.d.o's interfaces is a good idea. So if we want bugreports
from our primary users, I believe we should continue use the
bugzilla we have at bugs.skolelinux.no now. It has been put a lot
of effort in cleaning it up too.
o http://people.skolelinux.org/ or http://folk.skolelinux.org/ -
homepages for all that have an skolelinux.org-account. As we not
are only Debian Developers, people.debian.org cannot be used.
Comments are more than welcome! :)
