I'd like to edit and move the wiki page away from Trac.
IMHO, it is reasonable to host it not on GitHub wiki but on boost.org along other guidelines, for example, at https://www.boost.org/development/warnings.html
- It is easy to update website via pull requests. - Any updates would be a subject of some review at least
Thoughts? Objections?
I don't think this is a good idea, as it contributes to the proliferation of locations to look for to find information (or to contribute updates), which will also result in duplicate (in the best case) or contradictory (in the worst case) information.
You've lost me. I'm suggesting *single* place to maintain all the common Boost development guidelines, namely boost.org.
Ideally, boost.org should consist of a *very* small number of static pages (a hub, really) with links to other pages, such as project-specific websites (e.g. http://boostorg.github.io/<project>),
Clearly, we have a hierarchy of the recommendations here: - common guidelines - library-specific guidelines based on/extending the common ones I'm talking about common guidelines here, not the library-specific ones.
or the wiki (https://github.com/boostorg/boost/wiki).> Unsubscribe & other changes:
I suggest to not to maintain common guidelines on GitHub wiki or anywhere else - Wiki is volatile, too easy to edit by too many or too easy to sneak unwanted edits. Best regards, -- Mateusz Loskot, http://mateusz.loskot.net
