1 [[!meta title="SIPB Documentation Project"]]
3 The SIPB Documentation Project is a project to document in written
4 form the collective knowledge that SIPB members take for granted or
5 use in maintaining services and projects that are not otherwise
8 See [[SIPB Documentation|/doc]] for documentation produced so far.
9 Existing documentation can always be improved.
11 Other SIPB educational activites include the [AskSIPB](http://www.mit.edu/~asksipb/) column in The Tech, an array of [IAP classes](http://sipb.mit.edu/iap/), and the weekly [Cluedumps](http://cluedumps.mit.edu/) series each fall.
14 ## Documentation Ideas
16 This is a partial list of further topics that need documentation.
20 * `lpq`, `lprm`, `queues.mit.edu`
21 * `-i printadm` (maybe)
23 * "Using Debathena" -- You've installed Debathena -- now what? Automounter, `blanche`, cups; using stuff in the GUI.
24 * "Athena Dotfiles" -- These are weird and nonstandard compared to traditional UNIX and should be documented, including things like `.environment`
25 * There's some documentation at [http://web.mit.edu/olh/Dotfiles/]
27 * scripts.mit.edu -- lots of neat internals to explain; the scripts.mit.edu bugtracker also includes some identified [documentation tasks](http://scripts.mit.edu/trac/query?status=assigned&status=new&status=reopened&keywords=~docs&group=component&col=id&col=summary&col=status&col=owner&col=type&col=priority&col=milestone&col=keywords&order=priority)
33 * [[ikiwiki/Formatting]] -- Documentation on this wiki's formatting language
