First docteam brainsmoking summary

Hello,

some of the docteam people finally met, and we just had a first
brainstorming.  Lulu was there, and she's overclocked, so it's been more
of a brainsmoking than a brainstorming.  The productivity level was very
high, and I'll try to summarise what I can.

 - Tools: plone and zwiki are there and won't be changed.
   We however decided to:
    - go for MoinMoin for the wiki pages, to ease putting down contents
       - We can remove the unneeded formatting options and convert
	 remaining pages
       - In this context, we need however a cheat sheet for MoinMoin
	 formatting rules
    - go for DocBook to be able to publish things in HTML and in Yelp
 
 - It's hard to find things in the current Plone
    - we shouldn't try to change too much, as the site is going to have
      a major redesign
    - the website (FAQs and HOWTOs) hosts a selection of what's best in
      the wiki, with an official Ubuntu aura
    - we can however play with organizing FAQs and HOWTOs into sections,
      and that *really* need to be done, we've seen how to do it and we
      will do it ASAP (like, tonight or tomorrow)
    - as we'll move around the current plone contents, we can see if it
      can become any better (limited to content and local structure)
    - we'll try to change the top-right search box with a google in-site
      search; lulu and plovs are into that

We then messed around the Plone interface to see what can and can't be
done, and how to do it.
      

Ciao,

Enrico
