Hello all,
Knowing the sorrow and unmaintained state of the pages collecting links to our
designs [1][2], I think we need to execute the second half of my evil plan for
Design Document management.
We have the Feature design box (see top right corner, e.g. in [3]), so we can
easily automatically generate mediawiki categories. The first I implemented in
the template are "FreeIPA $VERSION Design" when target version is filled (and
design is thus accepted for a release) and "FreeIPA Design Proposal" for
others. We can be creative with other categories in future, if needed.
But even these 2 and a DynamicPageList plugin allowed me to create
automatically generated design lists, in [4]. I had to update the box in many
designs, however.
Makes sense? If yes, I would update these pages. Of course, this requires
developers to maintain the Feature box properly, but I think it's worth it.
