Hi all, Peter Abrahamsen has duplicated all of the documentation and cookbook pages in Puppet''s Trac page: https://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/DocumentationStart Please let me or Peter know if there are any problems. -- A motion to adjourn is always in order. --Robert Heinlein --------------------------------------------------------------------- Luke Kanies | http://reductivelabs.com | http://madstop.com
Luke, Have the Language Reference and Type Reference sections been replicated? They seem to currently be links to missing Trac pages.

Robert, They haven''t, you''re right. The API docs are a separate project, because they''re auto-generated in a markup format that isn''t what Trac uses. For this reason, there are also a lot of references to the API (reference) docs throughout the regular docs that will have to be re-added once we know how to reference them. This is my biggest qualm with the automagical code stuff--it''s impossible to use standard utilities to document them, generate ctags, and so forth. That, and debugging. It''s workable on a code base of this size, but I''ve worked on a larger project that worked the same way, and I hurt my head when I tried to figure out where all the auto-generated methods were coming from. Which, of course, is totally off-topic. Everyone, feel free to file me some bugs if there''s something that needs to be done with the docs, but you can''t/won''t do it yourself.

Peter, Thank you for the clarification. In this case, can the original documents be put back on the reductivelabs site until they''re fully moved? The main page no longer provides obvious access to the two references.

At this point, I think we should just move from storing the internal docs in Markdown to storing them in Restructured Text. At least then we could put them in the Trac wiki, although someone would have to load them manually.> This is my biggest qualm with the automagical code stuff--it''s > impossible to use standard utilities to document them, generate ctags, > and so forth.
