Subprojects organization
The organization presented here is based on the discussion in the boost devel list about the best way to organize the main boost repository. Since we have to define the way we will work, this subprojects can be used as a proof of concept.
Projects like the translation effort are being committed directly to the boost docs project trunk placed at:
https://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/boost_docs/trunk
This is done for the sake of simplicity. Docs can not affect the work of other people.
With subprojects, if we commit a buggy version to the trunk we can bother other people work. To avoid this, we will use the trunk as a merging repository. Each subproject will have his own repository placed at:
https://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/boost_docs/subprojects
The organization will be the same for each subproject
- subproject_name
- branches
- tags
We will use dates to specify not so buggy versions with the format: subproject_name_{year}_{month}_{day}
Example: boostbook_07_06_28 - trunk
Development branch for the subproject.- doc
- example
- test
There are some subprojects that must be integrated in the boost docs trunk repository, like Improving Boostbook and stylesheets projects. When you feel confident with a given version, you just copy the last tag of your subproject to the main trunk.
Each subproject have a Wiki page with additional information.
Projects waiting for developers
If you are interested, please send a mail to the boost-docs list telling us you want to help.
- Boost specific WikiMacros
Write a not too clutter proposal for new Boost specific WikiMacros, including the rationale behind each decision and implement the Macros specified in the proposal.
- Google Search Box project
We need help with the Google Search Box that appears in the banner. Our idea is to use a Linked CSE Custom Google Search, a XML based approach to specify the generated search page.
We need to investigate the Linked CSE technology and came up with a tested XML definition for our libs.
- Quickbook WikiProcessor
A Trac WikiProcessor written in Python that integrates Rene Rivera HTML backend in the Trac Wiki.
- Syntax highlighting project
The project consist in checking that the colours are right, and make the colour set for the missing IDEs. When this first task is finished, we must came up with a default syntax highlighting scheme for boost, that may be a combination of the others.
- Trac Syntax Coloring
Trac can be extended to support coloring of source code both in the Wiki and browsing the repository.
The project will consist in developing style definitions for boost used file types so Trac know how to show us our source.
Projects in progress
- Boost.DocTest
A Quickbook based document that exercise all possible constructs.
Eric Niebler, Joel de Guzman, John Maddock, Matias Capeletto, Paul Bristow
- Boost HTML stylesheet
As part of the unified look & feel project, we are making a standard CSS to be used in boost HTML docs.
Rene Rivera, Matias Capeletto, Joel de Guzman
- Boost Kate support
Syntax coloring, auto-commet and folding support for Boost C++, Quickbook and Jamfiles.
Matias Capeletto
- Boost PDF stylesheet
Another project member of the unified look & feel project. We will adapt the PDF look and feel to be as close as possible to the HTML generated docs (but not closer, because PDF design rationale is different from HTML design ddecisions.
John Maddock
- Boost Trac stylesheet
Once we settled down with a look and feel for our docs, we will tuned the trac CSS to match it. We have started by doing some testing.
Douglas Gregor, Matias Capeletto
- Boost.Build support for doc tools
Integration of new tools into the boost build system. It will be nice to have a Boost.Build expert to work with us.
John Maddock, Matias Capeletto
- Boostscript
Javascript library used by Boostbook to achieve things like dynamic selection of syntax coloring, easy navigation of boost docs and old browser fixes.
Matias Capeletto
- HTML to docbook
We are looking for solution to convert normal HTML into dockook files.
Glyn Matthews
- Improving Boostbook
Simplify and integrate new stuff from the project into Boostbook stylesheets.
Matias Capeletto
- Quickbook source stylesheet
We are developing a c CSS that lets as see boostbook based HTML as Quickbook source in a common browser.
Rene Rivera, Matias Capeletto
- SVG icons set project
Find scalable vector graphics icons for navigation and admonitions, so we can use them in both PDF and HTML output.
Peter Foley
