[Asterisk-Users] Offering an Asterisk Documentation and FAQ Portal

[Scott Stingel]

Hi Senad-

That would be great!  I think it would be important for the person to be a
programmer (or at least a systems integrator) to understand what issues
would require explanation, the order of presentation, etc etc.

(changing this format back to (plain text) for the benefit of readers with
older mail systems)

regards,
Scott

Hi,

I know of a person who would probably write the docs for FREE.
He is British with a superb understanding of English language.

Anyone in digium interested, please let me know!

Scott, 

I dont disagree.

I'm starting for where you were, and find it very difficult to gather all
the nuggets of infomation together.

The offer is still open, as a central repositiory, etc, unless Digium would
like to take the opertunity?

Just a suggestion, but wouldn't it be more appropriate for Digium to host
the documentation?

I think the missing link here is someone who will write (and illustrate) the
documentation.  All of this open source software is great because it's free
- but commercial users and others would certainly appreciate the time saved
by referring to a nice doc set.  I for one would have been willing to pay
for a reasonable documentation set, especially at the outset.

Maybe this is a commercial opportunity for a good tech writer - maybe
working in collaboration with Digium.

...just my 2 cents!

Scott

Hi,

I have resources available to host a portal specifically for the Asterisk
system, to help correlate documentation, FAQ's and How To

I am new to Asterisk, and my hardest work is in locating information on
using or configuring the software.

Would Mark, John or any of you feel this would be of benefit to host?

I am offering a PHP-NUKE portal for this, (Unless you know of a better
solution!)

Regards
Damian
