Documentation

Here's an update from the Documentation Working Group (DocWG) on what has been happening in Drupal Documentation in the last month or so: a successfull Documentation sprint at DrupalDevDays, and more then 1000 edits on drupal.org.

I was checking out Distribution developers guideto read up on the new API for developing distros with Drupal 8.

Besides the link the the install-profiles, there doesn't seem to exist very much about more advanced distros right now.

Is there any work and/or discussions going on about writing such documentation right now?

Would be grateful for links to more information too.

Hi,

There is a brand new Drupal group related to DITA XML-based documentation:

DITA Tech Comm CMS
https://groups.drupal.org/dita-tech-comm-cms

I'm posting this announcement here because the group is still pending moderation and therefore doesn't show yet in the list of new groups. Please join if you are interested in combining DITA and Drupal.

Kind regards,
Frank

The Drupal community is having a Global Sprint Weekend on the weekend of 17-18 January, 2015. You can join a local sprint in your area, or participate remotely via IRC.

Either way, the Documentation Working Group would like to invite both new and experienced Drupalists to participate in our the Drupal 8 Help Review sprint during this weekend (or at any time)!

Hi,

the OASIS DITA technical committees have published a RFP for their official website "to put more DITA in dita.xml.org". The site is currently powered by Drupal (6?).

"The Drupal implementation for dita.xml.org has been a long-standing source of pain, and we want to redo the site in early 2015," they write. Shouldn't that be a challenge for the Drupal community and/or some of the larger Drupal companies to prove them wrong?

As part of my rapidly-finishing Master’s studies, and my work on the Drupal Community Tools Team, I'm conducting research into the experiences of Drupal community members, specifically in terms of contributing. Your feedback is needed!

Write the Docs Unconferences are peer-to-peer events focused on documentation systems, tech writing theory, and information delivery.

Writing and maintaining documentation involves the talents of a multidisciplinary community of technical writers, designers, typesetters, developers, support teams, marketers, and many others. Our conferences create a time and a place for this community of documentarians to share information, discuss ideas, and work together to improve the art and science of documentation.

Introducing... This Month in Drupal Documentation (TMIDD)

Similar to "This Week in Drupal Core", the relatively new Documentation Working Group (DocWG) is trying out a new communication strategy: an approximately monthly post on what is happening in Drupal Documentation. We'll be posting this both to the Core and Documentation groups on groups.drupal.org, and because it is posted to Core, comments will be disabled by policy.
