| 26 | |
| 27 | == Plans == |
| 28 | * WordPress Powered site (backed by Trac) |
| 29 | * Want to keep same credentials we use for svn to reduce overhead on users (having to create separate accounts). |
| 30 | * Want to avoid the "staleness" of the current Wiki, and deal with lack of context and difficulty in finding things. |
| 31 | |
| 32 | == status.webkit.org == |
| 33 | * A portal to show current changes and activity in the project. |
| 34 | * Evangelists and project managers from other companies are "telling the story of WebKit", and don't do as good a job as we can. |
| 35 | * We should take ownership of this and present relevant information to our viewers. |
| 36 | * We should do a better job of explaining where we have implemented features, versus when they have shipped. |
| 37 | * Proposal: |
| 38 | * Create a JSON file of features. Engineers update this file as they work on features. |
| 39 | * Need a script to check the syntax of the file, perhaps a test page that shows you what your change will look like. |
| 40 | * Lots of fear that this will not be updated and kept current. |
| 41 | * Several tools and possible approaches were discussed, along with pros and cons. |
| 42 | * For policy documents, we should use some kind of MarkDown-based system. |
| 43 | * For things that change only rarely, and that need oversight and careful review, we need something more. |
