I''m pretty new to Rails, so still trying to find my way around. I''ve been trying to access manuals.rubyonrails.com for several days now but am getting a 503 error. Could anyone enlighten me as to where on looks for "service outage" or other status messages for rubyonrails.com and subdomains? I can''t find anything that would show that whoever administers the manuals knows it is down, or is doing anything about it.

Thanks for the reply....I wish railsmanual.org helped...it''s great for api docs....but was looking for something more "tutorial" in nature...in particular the manual on testing file uploadsl, as I''m trying to figure out how to unit test a file upload. gt_sdi On Feb 19, 4:42 pm, "Ed Hickey" <bassn...-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote:> it''s a continual problem. tryhttp://www.railsmanual.org > > ed > > On 2/19/07, gt_sdi <g...-r8IHplWLGbDj1AEdkUQrWxL4W9x8LtSr@public.gmane.org> wrote: > > > > > I''m pretty new to Rails, so still trying to find my way around.

Like you, I haven''t been able to find anyone who can help with this so I''ve raised a ticket (#7601: How can we make manuals.rubyonrails.com available reliably?). Hopefully that will get the attention of someone in the core team.

I don''t see why it has to be down to enable content to be ported across. If the core Rails team have decided to use Mephisto, what''s involved in helping to port the content? Also, is Jamis Buck aware that the consolidation to Mephisto includes the manuals? I notice he and others have had some recent (inconclusive) discussion about the best way to maintain the Capistrano documentation. Sorry to bombard you with these questions. I''d like a better understanding of what the direction is and what''s involved before I commit to taking on a task.

There are plans to move it to a container like the recent trac/svn move, but it''s not near as urgent a need right now.> If the core Rails team have decided to use Mephisto, what''s involved > in helping to port the content?

I don''t think his plans include the manuals site. I spoke with one of the new authors involved with the Caboose documentation project, and he mentioned wanting a place to put updated rails docs. So, we may see a re-org real soon anyway. -- Rick Olson http://weblog.techno-weenie.net http://mephistoblog.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

So, what''s involved in "porting"? Re-writing code? Copying content? b Rick Olson wrote: > > I have a Mephisto instance set up.

Hi Rick As per Ben''s question...can you give us an idea of what you need done. I would welcome an opportunity to contribute to the Rails community, but should make sure I can follow through on any commitments I make. Also a little confused (actually that''s mostly a permanent state) as to whether you saw this as potentially overlapping caboose.

So, if they (or anyone really), wanted to add some good rails manuals, manuals.ror.org is the place for it. As for what''s involved with porting, just moving content over. I''m moving it to Mephisto, so you''ll have the full power of that at your disposal. Right now, I''m thinking of dumping the current set of articles into a really simplified layout that matches the current ror design. If someone has any ideas, bring them up. -- Rick Olson http://weblog.techno-weenie.net http://mephistoblog.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
