 * [[Date()]] - Split up the too large frontpage into multiple head pages.  * [[Date(2004-07-25T02:19:08Z)]] - updated to 1.2.3, made custom layout into a theme

 * [[Date(2003-03-13T00:13:44Z)]] - activated ''edit locks'' (warnings only for now); time handling changed to use UTC, '''so you have to adapt your user (timezone) settings'''
 * [[Date(2003-03-07T17:35:38)]] - update from cvs should have fixed RecentChanges problems for anon users; installing PyXML should have fixed any RSS problems
 * [[Date(2003-02-13T00:46:26)]] - update to rev 1.168, which especially means backups on editor submits for people having a homepage, and spam protection via the `MailTo` macro

 * [[Date(2002-12-29T15:29:08)]] - Split up the too large frontpage into multiple head pages.

 * Decide explicitly a convention for page deletion for unpriviliged users.  * Speed up the wiki using FastCgi (this should happen when the creosote.python.org is replaced, which should happen soon).
Line 31: Line 38:
There are areas which could be moved from the regular web site to the wiki, because they live from contributions anyway. Examples would be some of the SpecialInterestGroups or the page listing editors suitable for Python.
Real moving implies getting permission from the python.org webmasters, since the HTML page has to be removed, and the links redirected to the wiki pages. Please don't just copy pages w/o informing anyone, and consider how often a page changes (i.e. if there's a real reason to take it into the wiki).

News / Changes

Things that need doing, unless they're done

  • Speed up the wiki using FastCgi (this should happen when the creosote.python.org is replaced, which should happen soon).

  • We need a mission statement on the front page. What it's for, who can/should participate.
  • Need to create a discussion / ask for help section(s).

Discussion

Unfortunately, the ISBN links point to amazon.com, not amazon.de -- DanielDittmar

Well, this is hardly surprising in an English wiki. You can use full http links, though. -- JürgenHermann DateTime(2002-07-26T02:01:40)

I wasn't surprised, but I was thinking of adding ISBN.de http://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/ASIN/ to intermap.txt (now that I found how ISBN works). -- DanielDittmar DateTime(2002-07-26T21:14:18)


Some ideas about the aims of this wiki:

What I would like to use this Wiki for is for comparisons between Python packages. Most areas seem to have multiple solutions. Is it very unwiki to impose some structure like I did in WebProgramming and trying to keep it up? GuiProgramming and IntegratingPythonWithOtherLanguages are also candidates for this kind of style. -- DanielDittmar DateTime(2002-07-15T02:21:48)

Imposing (widely accepted) structure is not unwiki, actually it is a goal of refactoring. Otherwise, you end up with a spaghetti wiki, i.e. chaos. -- jh

The entire point of a wiki is to capture discussion in such a way that it will be remembered IMO - dhl 20020716
