[Asterisk-Users] Offering an Asterisk Documentation and FAQ Portal

Hi,
 
I have resources available to host a portal specifically for the Asterisk
system, to help correlate documentation, FAQ's and How To
 
I am new to Asterisk, and my hardest work is in locating information on using or
configuring the software.
 
Would Mark, John or any of you feel this would be of benefit to host?
 
I am offering a PHP-NUKE portal for this, (Unless you know of a better
solution!)
 
Regards
Damian

[Asterisk-Users] Offering an Asterisk Documentation and FAQ Portal

Just a suggestion, but wouldn't it be more appropriate for Digium to host
the documentation?
 
I think the missing link here is someone who will write (and illustrate) the
documentation.  All of this open source software is great because it's free
- but commercial users and others would certainly appreciate the time saved
by referring to a nice doc set.  I for one would have been willing to pay
for a reasonable documentation set, especially at the outset.
 
Maybe this is a commercial opportunity for a good tech writer - maybe
working in collaboration with Digium.
 
...just my 2 cents!
 
Scott

Scott, 
 
I dont disagree.
 
I'm starting for where you were, and find it very difficult to gather all
the nuggets of infomation together.
 
The offer is still open, as a central repositiory, etc, unless Digium would like
to take the opertunity?
 
Damian

<DIV></DIV>>I have been planning to suggest this as well, but I
would recommend setting
<DIV></DIV>>up a zope site... 
<DIV></DIV>> 
<DIV></DIV>>If you set it up in zope you can have alot of
collaboration very easily.
<DIV></DIV>>You could, for instance, designate certain people who
have expertise in a
<DIV></DIV>>certain config/technology as project coordinator for
that area of
<DIV></DIV>>documentation. As well you could, as with any other
system, create areas
<DIV></DIV>>for specific technologies etc for the purpose of
being easy to navigate.
<DIV></DIV>>And of course the main benefit is the ability to have
as many people
<DIV></DIV>>collaborate as you wish, and still maintain
organization of data with very
<DIV></DIV>>low administration. Have a look...I think it would
make all of our lives
<DIV></DIV>>much easier. 
<DIV></DIV>> 
<DIV></DIV>>www.zope.org 
<DIV></DIV>> 
<DIV></DIV>>example site 
<DIV></DIV>> 
<DIV></DIV>>http://www.openparadigms.com 
<DIV></DIV>> 
<DIV></DIV>>allows you to create an account and post pages etc...
