| lechner | Hi, I use Eudev as part of Guix and am working on the package there. We refer to your wiki in a few places in our documentation. Is the Wiki still hosted by Gentoo, or should I reference the Github page there, as well? Thanks! https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Eudev | 00:55 |
|---|---|---|
| bb|hcb | lechner: Please use the GH page, I doubt that the wiki will get any updates | 00:59 |
| lechner | bb|hcb / actually, it's only once in English but it gets translated a zillion times. like this? https://paste.debian.net/1281443/ | 01:13 |
| genr8eofl | the gentoo contact person is active if you need anything | 03:14 |
| genr8eofl | unfortunately the project page isnt all that useful, but the help page is https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Eudev | 03:15 |
| bb|hcb | genr8eofl: If you think that is helpful, we can link to the wiki from GH readme? | 15:37 |
| genr8eofl | yeah I think it would be better that way. simplest way | 16:10 |
| genr8eofl | another idea is improving the gentoo project page to include the gentoo wiki link. but its permission locked | 16:13 |
| genr8eofl | I can also edit the help wiki to make it more generally applicable to non-gentoo users of the project | 16:15 |
| genr8eofl | I found this blurb abstract of the project description hiding on an old GSoC page: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Google_Summer_of_Code/2016/Ideas/Eudev | 16:17 |
| genr8eofl | "Eudev is a standalone dynamic and persistent device naming support (aka userspace devfs) daemon that runs independently from the init system. Eudev strives to remain init system and linux distribution neutral. It is currently used as the devfs manager for more than a dozen different linux distros. " | 16:17 |
| genr8eofl | i like that wording | 16:18 |
| genr8eofl | IMO it makes sense to improve the github README with that short blurb | 16:20 |
| genr8eofl | to explain more on that its distro agnostic, even if people keep pointing to gentoo wiki or mentioning gentoo | 16:22 |
| bb|hcb | I like that text, thanks! | 18:11 |
| bb|hcb | ... and pushed that with small visual/wording changes | 18:18 |
