Updates for Mirage on wiki.xen.org and www.xenproject.org #560

Open allisonrandal opened 7 years ago

I'm sure this isn't quite the right place to post these, but I'm hoping the maintainers for mirage.io can point me toward whoever is maintaining the Mirage content on the Xen Project pages (or perhaps are even the same group of people).

1) On the historical wiki page for Mirage's application to join the Xen Project Incubator:

https://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Mirage_Incubation_Project_Proposal

There's a link at the top of the page " For more information..." on the proposal acceptance, but the link goes to the wrong email message. It should go to "Results of formal vote for Mirage to be accepted as Xen.org Incubation Project - Correction" (https://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2013-02/msg02312.html) but at the moment it goes to "[PATCH] arch/x86/xen: remove depends on CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL" (https://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2013-02/msg01936.html), which doesn't make any sense.

2) The MirageOS downloads page on the Xen Project website lists 2.x as the "current release" and doesn't mention 3.0 at all. Some of the text also says that the page is for "previous versions", so perhaps it doesn't need a mention of 3.0, but it at least needs a change so 2.x isn't labeled as the "current release".

Thank you for reporting this!

We updated the Xen wiki several releases ago and it's essentially been untouched since then. @larskurth -- what do you think the best thing to do here? We could either remove all the duplicated content on the Xen wiki and point to this website, or update it. The latter will result in it being more out of date very soon though...

I would put a landing page on the xen wiki, and re-direct existing pages that are out-of-date, to the place where the information is most likely kept up-to-date We can also delete/archive pages where this is the best option Lars

Thanks @larskurth, that sounds good to me. Now for the hard bit -- remembering my wiki password :-)
