status on CVS access

FDP is moving to a sponsored CVS access model, very similar to what Fedora Extras is doing. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject/CVSAccess [1] The main reason is because we are moving away from CVS as being the primary way to contribute and edit documentation. Aside from the Wiki, we are close to putting up a full CMS on fedoraproject.org, and most documentation workflow (write, edit, publish) is going to be handled directly there. CVS continues to be important for translation and full-length documents that authors prefer to work directly in XML. The Fedora Infrastructure team is working on migrating Fedora Translation CVS and the CGI that handles the translators' workflow. In the meantime, we'll continue to add individual translators. These translators need to follow the same sponsorship model, ideally with a sponsor being a fellow translator from their language. Cheers - Karsten [1] Thanks to Hugo Cisneros for his draft of this document and helping to drive the sponsorship model for FDP :) -- Karsten Wade, RHCE, 108 Editor ^ Fedora Documentation Project Sr. Developer Relations Mgr. | fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject quaid.108.redhat.com | gpg key: AD0E0C41 ////////////////////////////////// \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
