I mean, tbh, I *do* kinda hate the current doc process, no offence to anyone. Wikitext is definitely quirky in some ways, but just for writing up basic docs, I found the wiki a *lot* easier and more friendly than the current doc setup :( I do understand why we're trying to get away from the wiki, but I don't think the change has made things better for people trying to *write* docs. -- Adam Williamson (he/him/his) Fedora QA Fedora Chat: @adamwill:fedora.im | Mastodon: @[email protected] https://www.happyassassin.net -- _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected] Do not reply to spam, report it: https://forge.fedoraproject.org/infra/tickets/issues/new
