Job Posting: Documentation Manager
Posted: Mon Apr 24, 2006 10:01 pm
Well, the documentation project is in sad shape at this point. As we're getting bigger, it's starting to become more and more of a hurdle. And let's be realistic, there is no possible way I could sit down and write all the documentation (and maintain it!) along with the other managerial things that go on with this project.
So, I'm looking for someone who can dedicate some time to getting the documentation project rolling. I think I want to move a large chunk of content to a wiki, so that the community at large can have a hand in working on it.
Right now I'm looking at Mediawiki 1.6, since it has registration and basic permissions, and can do different languages pretty easy by using url tricks.
I'm looking for someone that can help setup a wiki in a structured manner, particuarly for the handbook, which needs to support multiple languages. They should be able to slowly remove content from the CMSMS site proper and move it to the wiki. They must not be afraid to bug the developers for holes or things that they don't quite understand. They should have at least a decent understanding of the program and it's options, etc. Perferrably someone we already know from the forums or irc, but that's not a requirement.
If you're interested and think you can fill the bill, please let me know. I'm very anxious to get this project going.
Thanks!
Ted
