Challenges are:
most of wiki audience is non technical or lightly technically inclined
much of wiki content outside of support pages is stale, some inaccurate
shortening FAQs, splitting off answers, interconnecting
now working on actvities docs
I have been using activities to explore functionality so I can document them

(00:41:08) iainD: I also have some thoughts about using some Namespaces.
(00:41:25) avril: namespaces were discussed, but the would complicate things

was thinking about working on a simplified Site Map, tying in some portal "Where to start" information.
(00:45:20) avril: exactly
(00:45:47) avril: but a different portal where to start for each of the four basic audiences
(00:45:55) avril: kid, parent, educator, enthusiast
(00:46:03) iainD: And also working on some pages, which jumble up user info, developer info, and technical info... split into three pages, etc...
(00:46:14) ***iainD nods.
(00:46:21) avril: problem with current faq is that it's targeted at all audiences in a jumble
(00:46:40) avril: so, split it out, we can always stitch it together
(00:46:45) iainD: Who's all in the wiki re-org group, and how can I get in. :) I want some kool-aide too.
(00:46:50) avril: will be overlap (okay for portal)

Wiki/laptog.org Projects

(most of which are stalled, unless someone else speaks up and encourages me to work on them)

  • olpc-update - re-organization between public and develop info
  • Olpc:News , Press - consolidate the press / outreach references into consistent organization and less dups.
  • Site Map - a course on effectively navigating the wiki, start w/home page and work way down.
    • Seperate paths/tracks depending on target audience ?
  • General: Seperate all pages, by target audience.
    • header flag/category pages: separate out pages by content:
      • 'technical docs', 'User Guide', 'Reference', 'projects', discussion pages, etc. . .
    • Propose new - wiki User spaces (for the above?)
    • Start marking pages which are no longer used (i.e. Archive for future reference, or move to seperate user space? )

Personal

  • Review wiki devel pages: Content_bundles
  • test-drive, devel new activity template package
