Project Organization

Preliminaries

Before getting into discussions on any of the numerous topics we will no doubt be dealing with I would like to raise the meta-topic of how and where we hold discussions and document things. Some principles:

  1. Organization is helpful. The page is for documentation, the talk is for discussion, which generally starts with a question. The response ends up in the documentation.
  2. History is important. Don't delete anything, but let the history page work for us.
  3. Things change. We need to be flexible as new material accrues and our understanding changes. So stuff can get moved and re-organized.

My suggestions:

  • For the main page, sections on Purpose, History, Problem Statement and Analysis headings, with future places for Solution Statement and Implementation Plan.
  • For the talk page, we will want to segment the discussion under various headings with topics generated as for User Talk pages under headings. (The downside is losing the use of "+" to start new topics, unless we get something else to work.)
