[Fiware-apps] Synchronizing all the GEri related materials -PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

Hi All,

As you can read below, the urgent need to provide potential FIWARE users 
with coherent and clean documentation that is compliant with released 
software has arise.
Basically, the central administration agreed to make procedures more 
lightweight in order to provide better results in less time.

Practically speaking, the whole process private wiki ->public wiki has 
been revised. It will not be the chapter leader anymore the person who 
edits the public wiki with contents taken from the private wiki.

As said below:

Those partners with GEris to be published on the catalogue (those at 
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AqGGeaQGro3fdG83Y0dQVEFKSHFYWmtXdlpEdnVpaXc&usp=sharing#gid=0) 
must ensure consistency with the latest release delivered:

  * Ensure that the latest version is available in a repository clearly
    linked from the catalogue in the Downloads tab(Files, github or
    whatever you use)
  * Update the Installation and admin manual on the public wiki directly
    and make sure that it is referred from the catalogue
  * Update the User & Programmer manual on the public wiki directly and
    make sure that it is referred from the catalogue
  * Update the Unit Testing Plan manual on the public wiki directly and
    make sure that it is referred from the catalogue
  * Update the FIWARE Lab recipes, images, etc. if needed
  * Update the FIWARE Academy courses (http://edu.fi-ware.org/) if needed

 From now on, updating the software means updating everything and 
keeping it in perfect synchrony. It can be done anytime, at the end of 
every Sprint or even in its middle (e.g., due to a hot patch it is 
urgent to publish). The manuals and info must correspond to the same 
release always. To avoid temporary inconsistencies, we ask you to 
prepare everything offline in the most suitable repository in each 
case(word, private wiki, etc.) and port it all in one go to the all the 
repositories.

I suggest in the Apps chapter we add to the above described procedure 
another step, that is:

  * Inform the chapter leader and architect (me and Javier) of what has
    been updated.

I am considering keeping track of these changes elsewhere than an email, 
but let's see how often this happens.

The important point is to remember that consistency of SW and 
documentation is now up to each GE owner. I will supervise these actions 
but please consider that you know what you are editing.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Best,

     alessandra

Dear all,

   It seems that our repositories are not always well aligned and part 
of this is caused by the lack of flexibility in the procedures. We have 
decided to give it a push by relaxing the current work procedure.

   This was triggered by finding that some partners have new versions of 
code (R3.4 , for instance) and the manuals were the old ones for R3.3.

   Those partners with GEris to be published on the catalogue (those on 
[1]) must ensure consistency with the latest release delivered:

  * Ensure that the latest version is available in a repository clearly
    linked from the catalogue in the Downloads tab(Files, github or
    whatever you use)
  * Update the Installation and admin manual on the public wiki directly
    and make sure that it is referred from the catalogue
  * Update the User & Programmer manual on the public wiki directly and
    make sure that it is referred from the catalogue
  * Update the Unit Testing Plan manual on the public wiki directly and
    make sure that it is referred from the catalogue
  * Update the FIWARE Lab recipes, images, etc. if needed
  * Update the FIWARE Academy courses (http://edu.fi-ware.org/) if needed


   The only step on which we will keep applying supervision is 
publication of VM images, deployment recipes, etc. on  FIWARE Lab.

   The catalogue has a workflow that still implies approvals of edited 
entries but Stefano will try to swiftly approve your edits until we 
implement a more agile workflow (under definition).

   From now on, updating the software means updating everything and 
keeping it in perfect synchrony. It can be done anytime, at the end of 
every Sprint or even in its middle (e.g., due to a hot patch it is 
urgent to publish). The manuals and info must correspond to the same 
release always. To avoid temporary inconsistencies, we ask you to 
prepare everything offline in the most suitable repository in each 
case(word, private wiki, etc.) and port it all in one go to the all the 
repositories.

   The Security chapter is still backdated (in R2) and R3 will be ported 
to the public wiki by Thales shortly. You will have to internally 
coordinate in Security to publish all your stuff in an orderly fashion.

   Note that with all these measures we are giving you a lot of 
empowerment.   We will implement a methodology that will mean that such 
empowerment will remain for those partners who show they are reliable.  
However, a given FIWARE GEri owner or even a complete chapter may loose 
this empowerment and it will be put in quarantine (i.e., activities 
under close supervision and strict approval procedures) if it is find 
out that general rules, templates, etc are not followed or provided 
content is not of enough good quality.

   Best regards,

   Miguel and Juanjo
