feeds for docs? and "developers" group?
Reading the "When it's Ready" thread I've just learned 2 important things: - there is an automatic tool to help porting modules (deadwood) - now there are good docs about SimpleTest Sometimes I look into discussions or docs or "groups" to see how to best deal with cvs when you use another tool internally, how to setup multisite, if there is anything new about DB API I could exploit etc... Sometimes the docs get stale, outdated or it just don't solve my problem. a) it would be nice if dev could be kept updated on changes to specific sections of docs. b) is there a place to discuss about how to become better drupal developers? techniques, tools etc... Every time I learn something from a ml that could be useful to others or I may "forget" I've the habit to take notes on my (oh!) drupal website. If there was a place where to discuss how to become better drupal developers (and maybe there is such a place) I think the documentation would be even larger and maybe some recurring topics would be less frequent. The dev list most frequent use seems to be: - core announcements and strategies - how do I program this? but not: how do I become a better drupal dev? -- Ivan Sergio Borgonovo http://www.webthatworks.it

I just gave a look to the archives and it looks like a place for contributors to doc rather than users of the docs. What about a place where developers could discuss about techniques, programming environment, management of drupal? -- Ivan Sergio Borgonovo http://www.webthatworks.it
