This page has been reorganized from newest to oldest.


Question 1 - Please set up a paypal donation link. There are a lot of people rooting for you guys! Some of us would like to help financially.
=May 22=
 
I've been dropping in information and editing. How's it looking? --[[User:Graham|Graham]]
 
:Great start. Having the framework there means people can start fleshing it out. --[[User:Walter|Walter]] 17:30, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
 
 
Suggested change to Wiki navigation: Change '''Navigation''' to '''About SugarLabs''', this way Using Sugar right below makes more sense, and it's defined what the upper nav block is focused on.
 
:will do. --[[User:Walter|Walter]] 20:34, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Is there any way to browse the images that have already been uploaded, so that I could re-use an existing image rather than creating a duplication of info? -- [[User:AuntiMame]] 22May08 16:24
 
:Yes. [[Special:Newimages]] and http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/index.php?title=Special%3AAllpages&from=&namespace=6  --[[User:Walter|Walter]] 20:34, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
 
Next Q: Is there any way to rename images so that there is some kind of standard? For example all  of the logo proposals would start with "Logo-proposed--...". I know that by changing a name I'd have to go to all the pages that refer to it and change the link... But it wouldmake it easier to "browse" for images to use/reuse. -- [[User:AuntiMame]] 22May08 19:10

Two requests:
 
*We should add a new item under Using Sugar called Software & Activities where we can compile a list of all available applications, installation instructions, and links to download. --[[User:Graham|Graham]]
*Can Toolbox be renamed Using The Wiki so we can put tips and tricks like the above on the record for everyone to easily find?
:Done. --[[User:Walter|Walter]] 22:54, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
 
Now we have Wiki Help under About SugarLabs (btw, is it Sugar Labs or SugarLabs?) and Using the Wiki. Can Wiki Help be moved to Using the Wiki? And a general Help section and News section put under About Sugar Labs? Not sure what would go under Help, but something at some point, no doubt... Sugar Development News, I can think of things already that need to go there - new comps from the new Sugar build, etc.

Question 2 - Hi there, I find the wiki.laptop.org site to be very hard to follow. Is the intention to create the definitive online manual for Sugar on this site, with an improved wiki? If so, I would love to help get it right...

:Any suggestions as to how to structure this site so that it doesn't get too hard to follow is more than welcome. Perhaps we can use this page to discuss a framework. The good news is that Sugar Labs has a more focused set of goals, so it will hopefully be easier to keep the wiki more focused as well. Regarding an online manual, let's get started!!  I wrote http://www.laptop.org/gettingstarted pages; maybe a critic of those pages would be a good place to start? Also, pointers to positive examples would also be helpful. --[[User:Walter|Walter]] 15:44, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Looks great, thanks. One suggestion, change to Submit Bugs & Problems - so it will wrap better in the nav! --[[User:Graham|Graham]]
