[OPEN-ILS-DOCUMENTATION] FW: Progress Report, feedback please

Wed Jul 9 09:40:02 EDT 2014

I’m still not sure why my email with the files never came through to the list. I’m assuming it got rejected flat out as spam. ☹

The feature I was unable to find any documentation on is the Patron Record -> Messages button.

I’ve been working on that one, and I think I’ll try Remington’s directions for adding the changes to github for review, since at least then everyone should be able to see them.

Kate, Yamil, and everyone,

I think this is the feature Kate was working on:

http://evergreen-ils.org/documentation/release/RELEASE_NOTES_2_6.html#_administration

If I remember correctly, she discovered that the whole section was missing, so she first tried to revive the old version of that section and didn’t get to actually adding the new information of the 2.6 feature.  I’m not sure where the revived section should go in the docs, though.

FYI, I never received Kate’s email with the files, and I don’t see her email on the online list archive.  So Yamil, if you want feedback from others, you will want to share the files either on the email list again, or through dropbox or something.  Or if you feel pretty good about it, like you mentioned, you could just add them to the master docs and anyone can make edits later.

Kate,

I have checked your files and they seemed to be correct in terms of syntax, for example I made sure your cross reference worked. Good job. I can add the changes in the next 24 hours tot he offical docs, but I wanted to get on the same page with you since I am not very familiar with the feature you documented.

Can you tell me more about the area of documentation that is needed to be created? Is it found in the "Evergreen in Action" book? Perhaps others can clue me in.

Also, if there needs to be some new documentation added that was not part of this new 2.6 feature that Kate worked on, perhaps we can find some new volunteers to help me create this needed documentation from scratch or converted from another format.

Thanks in advance,
Yamil

Here is most of my assignment for the documentation -- the only thing still missing is the feature (manually added standing penalties/alerts) which was missing documentation in the first place. I had hoped I'd be able to get that done, but as it's still not, it's better to get these in place, if someone who can make changes could have a look and add them.

I think links to documentation from the release notes would be very
useful.
