We need someone to step forward as a lead writer for the DUG. Is that John? You certainly did the bulk of that work in the last months before release.
Now that I'm back from vacation, I'll be glad to serve as lead writer for the DUG.
Welcome back, you seem ... refreshed. :)
Go ahead and set some schedules and stuff, there are a lot of people who have helped or expressed interest, so we can give some direction and go.
I use GNOME, KDE and Xfce. I can contribute to KDE, but could use some help. I'm not sure how much of Xfce we can cover this time, but there are some avid users who would appreciate the coverage.
As we proceed, let's envision what we are doing as a framework that can be applied to different WMs.
For some content, things are the same -- for example, system-config-* are probably the best admin UIs to point at, until there are good enough KDE equivalents (or that is otherwise solved.)
I prefer editing the wiki, then converting it to XML as the final step. We also need to make sure that the link in the new default page is the correct one, so that we can avoid the complications with the Fedora Core 6 DUG links.
Depending on how much changes, we might be able to do a diff on the wiki and manually carry over changes, rather than do a full conversion from scratch.
At the least, having all the existing structures in place will make it easier.
