Enable the wiki + discussions? #4

Closed laeubi closed 2 years ago

laeubi commented 2 years ago

Can we enable the Wiki + Discussions for all projects under this umbrealla or should we enable that on the individual repos?

vogella commented 2 years ago

+1 as platform project lead, please open a issue for the help center of the foundation for this.

akurtakov commented 2 years ago

@vogella Project leads can do that via the settings of each repo.

vogella commented 2 years ago

Wiki yes, also done by me now but discussion I don't see the option in the UI.

laeubi commented 2 years ago

Discussions must be requested by a project lead AFAIK from the service-desk.

Just link to this issue in your request, in which the project lead gave his permission. I can also do it later, if you do not want do / do not have the time..

Wikis have a lot of drawbacks: they're often out of date, not wrll maintained, their contributions are not tracked so well... I'd rather see wiki avoided and dev doc placed directly in relevant Got repo together with code and regular doc.

By tying the wiki + discussions into one bug neither item seems to have got any traction.

Was there any objection to discussions? Would that be seen as a replacement for Eclipse Forums?

vogella commented 2 years ago

Wiki is enabled, nobody seems to care enough to act upon https://github.com/eclipse-platform/.github/issues/4#issuecomment-1111842191

I can also do it later, if you do not want do / do not have the time..
