Revival of the FAQ and notes proposal: Hosted at JSFAQ.org, on GitHub, and maintained by multiple individuals. The jsfaq repo with gh-pages is at https://github.com/GarrettS/jsfaq (with CNAME file for jsfaq.org) jsfaq.org DNS points to github DNS server. So far, it is just the index page and the CSS. No notes pages. The proposed process for changing the FAQ still entails consensus. The proposed change is for multiple contributors, version control, and a new domain. Improvements will come more rapidly and with less burden for the maintainer(s) and the group. -- Garrett

Please provide some feedback on what was done so far: 1) Commits can be made by multiple people -- good or bad? 2) New domain - jsfaq.org 3) Reliable hosting -- Garrett

Or better yet, start a GitHub organization and add them there. If you go to <http://www.34sp.com/> and put a possible domain name into the search box at the top right corner you will get a message saying if the name is in use, and also for similar names with other tlds : .com, .org, .co.uk, .org.uk, etc. That's how I found jsfaq.com.

I don't know DNS so well either, but I'll try and explain as best I can. CNAME, is a Canonical Name record for DNS used to specify that a domain name uses the IP addresses of another domain, the "canonical" domain. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNAME_record Github uses a CNAME file so that when it gets a request to its address, it can find the content for the domain. https://help.github.com/articles/setting-up-a-custom-domain-with-pages I'm going to push forward with Sauyet's project. He already added me to it. Eventually it would be good to have an app to handle both the text postings to the NG and compiling a file. The Github project can have collaborators to push to it and to provide multiple points of human contact. -- Garrett http://ChordCycles.com/

The FAQ at jibbering is the collective property of the newsgroup, and you have no moral right to copy or plagiarise it elsewhere. If, as a failed FAQ maintainer, you want to produce a FAQ, you should use original material based on your general knowledge of the topic. My advice is that you should get a real job, in whatever field needs your capabilities. -- (c) John Stockton, nr London UK. Mail, see Homepage.

I tried and tried to recruit a new maintainer. Three years later, the FAQ is still unmaintained. How is that my fault? I opened the idea for an FAQ where anyone qualified could for the FAQ pages and push to them. A GitHub organization-managed repo would be preferable to user:GarrettS. That can be arranged. Doocracy entails getting stuff done, voluntarily. See also "Culture of Participation." -- Garrett

This seems difficult for me because I am not that good at Github and because I have never created a Github organization. You might be better at it than I am. Can you try it? A JSFAQ organization will need its own gh-pages repo with a CNAME for the domain (jsfaq.org or another). There can be multiple contributors, not just one FAQ maintainer, and we will still discuss everything on list. > > Thomas Lahn also has a revised copy of it hosted on his website. It would be great if all the talented folk who use CLJ could work together. That's the idea. Positive change through collaboration. This is about the FAQ and about cooperating. -- Garrett

Changes can be merged in by hand, making a ticket on Github and posting each change here. For example, if a contributor wants to make a change to the FAQ there, he can either: A. File an issue on the github project page, make the change, post about that here, and close the issue with a link to the discussion. B. Or if he is not sure about the change, post about the problem here and/or file an issue.

And GH pages can use a custom domain without hyphens, such as JsFAQ.org (or if someone comes up with a cooler name). I did this right after I'd created the jsfaq repo on my own Github account. https://github.com/JSFAQ?tab=members I've never created a github organization; not sure how those accounts work. Action plan: Pick one, add some contributors, and get the files up. https://github.com/c-l-j?tab=members I just added four hidden members there > > > Lets get the FAQ and notes up there, and then we'll. > > > > We'll what? > A) Watch reruns of happy days with Chachi in them.

Awesome! I am learning and trying to get this right. If you know GitHub better and want to commit to ownership, I'll gladly back off. I'm interested in getting the ball rolling and contributing to it as an organization/project committer. -- Garrett ChordCycles.com

I am more than a bit concerned about that. Which of these FAQs is the official one? Which FAQ will be appropriately maintained in the (near) future? If I have suggestions for improvement, how can I convey these--and to whom? I'm not sure what would be the best solution for the sake of this newsgroup, but I'm rather confident, that having several FAQs isn't it. -- Christoph M. Becker
