[Typo3-doc] Back from the T3BOARD05, I got the final structure

[Sylvain Viart]

Hi DocTEAM,

I'm back from Kitzbühel, I'm full of reply and some great new ideas and 
  solutions I want to apply for the documentation.

I've met lot of TYPO3's involved peoples and have made some good 
connection with them. We will work together on the next TYPO3 
documentation system.

To reply shortly to Rick:

First thank you form your help offer. I hope I will by able to convert 
it to real input. ;-)

We have chosen to use a Wiki system as a collaborative tool because 
TYPO3 wasn't usable in its current state to allow free contribution to 
unidentified user like a Wiki does.

That's no more true. ;-)

We also wanted to offer a common Internet tool. WikiPedia is a well 
known encyclopedia using successfully a Wiki system as their input software.

This software seemed a good choice for us, that why wiki.typo3.org is 
MediaWiki based. As Jean-Maid said, it's more a testing area than a full 
  working documentation system.

During the T3BOARD05 tour I've though a lot about the TYPO3 
documentation system and the structure. The structure is now the main 
working point of the DocTEAM.

I finally decided to use the good old one, first structure proposition. 
One of the main reason it's because it's also used in the German TYPO3 
book, and also because it was suggested by Kasper and later on by Peter.

And my last point it's because I would like to go to a web semantic system.

But the final structure is much more as Peter suggested on the Main_Page 
draft.

http://wiki.typo3.org/index.php/Draft_Main_Page

We will have 4 main sections:

* Getting Started, a place to learn for beginner
* Editor, the documentation for user with use TYPO3 only to input and 
manage the content
* Administrator, the documentation related to TYPO3 administrative task, 
should be more clearly defined what an administrator is and what is his 
role.
* Developer, the most advanced TYPO3 level, people which develop program 
template for TYPO3 site.

What you can do right now, it's to complete the document review in the 
Wiki document Matrix.

http://wiki.typo3.org/index.php/Document_Matrix

Write here the information you know about a particular document. A sort 
of summing up and improvement suggestion list. Also try to put the main 
section in which you think the document should go, (see above). And 
finally add some list of the topic covered by the document.

I really have no more time to describe the process more deeply right 
now,  but start with a document you know well, I will revise what you've 
done and I will also send the complete Documentation structure and the 
detailed review process.
