Sticky Login | |
Motion Whereas -it is annoying to have to traverse from the home page back to where i was when i decided to login, we should change the site config and layout such that:
a) login box is in the top bar (like two) b) logging in does not return the editor to the homepage.
In Favor: dthacker,xavi, chibaguy, marclaporte

Renovate home page | |
DT: xavi helped get items postitioned on the page, let's make sure all links work and install it
In Favor: dthacker,xavi, chibaguy, marclaporte |
Upgrade to tikiwiki 1.10? | |
Whereas: 1.10 allows - edit by section, redirect, advances in admin and groups, freetagging, etc.
Motion: The EB recommends moving on to 1.10
ML: I can take care of upgrades in 1.9.x but not in 1.10.x If someone is willing to update, that's fine. It seems to me that the feature-set of BRANCH-1-9 should be sufficient to make excellent documentation. In Favor: DT, MLP |
Theme project. | |
Motion: Mike will be tasked to work with Marc and (Gary?) to work on a new theme for doct.two - on a test site first.
DT: See additional proposal in New Business
|
Redo modules and menus. | |
Opposed: dthacker
|
Articles expire | |
Motion: Set all articles to expire after 30 days.
DT: Or expire after 30 days?
In Favor: dthacker,xavi, MLP

Simple Rules for the Editorial Board | |
This is a meeting of the Editorial Board - it runs online from March 1 to March 31st. Undecided motions are carried over to the next month. Passing a motion requires 50% plus one of the current members. Members who miss two consecutive meetings are no longer considered current.
MLP: this should be amended so that it is generic, anyway the idea is that the agenda is rolling and the page refreshed once a month: creating the next month;s agenda is just copying last months and dropping the items that have been decided or withdrawn. note: an editorial board content template exists. |

Create test doc site | |
Motion: Set up a test doc site, to experiment with radical simplicity in tagging vs. categories, search engine performance, alternative structures
Xavi: not needed, I think.
ricks99: not needed. if something is not ready for prime-time, just change the category/tag/permission to hide it from casual visitors Opposed: xavi, sylvieg, chibaguy, ricks99

Replace Tiki Search with Google cse | |
Suggested by ricks99. Replace the current tiki search with a google search
Opposed: sylvieg (eat our own dog food until we are sick and decide to do something else - lucene is a good alternative too - google is not open source - the toc should be enough in a doc), chibaguy, xavi, marclaporte (I use a lot of Tiki's in an Intranet setting, so I'd rather we have something which we can reproduce) In favor: ricks99 (while i agree with the "eat your own dogfood" mentality, let's not reinvent the wheel. if there's a better solution, why not use it? let's not forget the #1 mission of docs.tw.o — to help users find answers to their questions. anything that furthers that mission is, imho, a good thing). Introducing another search will not follow the perms - so it is very dangerous to show a better solution- What about to use the google module on the site? |
