MANUAL for 7.0
« on: July 31, 2006, 06:41:20 PM »
A few posters have suggested users read the manual

I'd like to point out that at this writing, the main menu link to documentation brings one to the version 6 manual, not the new one that is at

http://no.longer.valid/phpwiki/index.php/SME7Manual

hmm, should I report this as a bug?

Oh, wait, first I'll read the manual!

Oh, wait, is isn;t actually available yet!

Is there any way to let users contribute to the manual on a page or topic level?  I don't feel qualified to edit a chapter, but I certainy can handle some pages topics, proof reading, etc.  

Also, perhaps we can merge the contribs into the manual at least on a related topic link  because one of the more frustrating things with SME is that one doesn't know if yum, or a contrib, or CentOs Extras is the place to look.

Yes definitely the bugtracker, you can volunteer there as well.
Be careful whose advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than its worth ~ Baz Luhrmann - Everybody's Free (To Wear Sunscreen)
