[OPEN-ILS-DOCUMENTATION] DIG Meeting "Handouts"

[sarahc at zionsville.lib.in.us]

Attached is a slightly expanded version of the Cataloging Chapter
outline.  I also rearranged the sections to what is hopefully more
logical order, and added some thoughts about whether some sections
should be subsections, etc.

> At the meeting we'll be discussing documentation licensing and a
> proposed outline in progress.  Here's some pre-reading that should
> hopefully make the meeting go more smoothly.
>
> Documentation Licensing:
>
> From my reading and discussion with other DIG members interested in
> the licensing issue, it sounds like one good option would be to
> license the documentation under CC-BY-SA 3.0
> (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/) but state that any
> source code included in the documentation is also available under
> the GNU GPL.  We could have contributors include a statement with
> their contribution that they have the right to contribute what
> they're contributing and that they give permission for it to be
> licensed under CC-BY-SA 3.0 and/or GNU GPL and permission for us to
> move to some other copy-left licensing arrangement if in the future
> a majority of DIG participants vote that it is in the best interest
> of the project.
>
> At the meeting we will discuss whether we're ready to put this to a
> vote, discuss any alternative options to consider, and if the group
> feels ready vote on a license we'll do that.
>
> Outline in Progress:
>
> I am attaching an outline in progress for the overall documentation.
>  It's pretty well fleshed out at the Book/Part/Chapter Levels, but
> some of the chapters need more thought put into the structure of
> sections, subsections, etc.  I would like to have volunteers pick a
> chapter or two, read up on the topic(s), and suggest how they think
> that chapter should be broken down into sections (within sections,
> within sections as deeply as needed).  We've already got some input
> on the cataloging chapter and that's attached too.  If you have time
> in the next hour, please take a look at the attachments and give
> them some thought.
>
> Thanks,
