 == Abridged: ==

 (6:42:50 AM) MartinCleaver: ok. do you back the idea of moving the
 documentation to codex?
 (6:43:10 AM) donncha_: sure, that's a great idea!
 (6:43:23 AM) donncha_: Trac was used before just because it was there
 (6:44:00 AM) MartinCleaver: Ok. So how about you email Matt and ask him to
 give me the rights to edit the trac wiki?

 == Full version: ==

 (6:18:24 AM) MartinCleaver: donncha_:
 http://trac.mu.wordpress.org/wiki/UpgradingWpmu - this is really old?
 (6:19:37 AM) MartinCleaver: There is no fricking date on this page
 06:20
 (6:20:03 AM) donncha_: it's very old -
 http://trac.mu.wordpress.org/wiki/UpgradingWpmu?action=diff&version=8 :)
 (6:21:02 AM) MartinCleaver: ok. can I change it?
 (6:21:35 AM) donncha_: I'm not sure who have access to it tbh, are you
 logged into trac?
 (6:21:40 AM) donncha_: is there an edit button?
 (6:21:54 AM) MartinCleaver: Am logged in. No edit button
 (6:22:07 AM) MartinCleaver: this is the problem with locked down content
 (6:22:26 AM) donncha_: sure is, is there an upgrade page on the wpmu
 section of the codex?
 (6:22:41 AM) donncha_: that's probably a better place to put it, I'll edit
 that page and point it there
 (6:23:03 AM) MartinCleaver: great one sec. Let me copy the content into a
 page
 (6:24:42 AM) MartinCleaver: http://codex.wordpress.org/Upgrading_WPMU
 06:25
 (6:25:07 AM) donncha_: cool :)
 (6:27:35 AM) MartinCleaver: ok, am ready for you to repoint the
 UpgradingWpmu page
 06:30
 (6:32:48 AM) MartinCleaver: donncha_: are there special instructions that
 I should point someone at re: (1) use the ABC tool to back up as per WP
 (2) do something or other to adjust for WPMU
 (6:33:36 AM) donncha_: Just the readme file really
 06:35
 (6:37:45 AM) MartinCleaver: I just looked through /README.txt for wpmu
 1.2.3
 (6:37:55 AM) MartinCleaver: which part of that document should we refer
 them to?
 (6:38:40 AM) MartinCleaver: there is nothing in there about backups, for
 instance
 (6:39:07 AM) donncha_: feel like writing something?
 06:40
 (6:40:20 AM) MartinCleaver: did you fix up that link?
 http://trac.mu.wordpress.org/wiki/UpgradingWpmu
 (6:40:30 AM) donncha_: nope, not yet
 (6:41:31 AM) MartinCleaver: How about giving me write permissions to the
 pages on trac and I'll move all the content onto codex?
 (6:42:07 AM) MartinCleaver: write once documentation is painful as you
 miss everyone's upadtes
 (6:42:13 AM) MartinCleaver: then people don't bother reading
 (6:42:18 AM) MartinCleaver: they just ask questions instead
 (6:42:28 AM) MartinCleaver: so we get all this noise in the forums
 (6:42:32 AM) donncha_: I don't think I can. I think Matt is probably the
 only one who can change perms of users there
 (6:42:50 AM) MartinCleaver: ok. do you back the idea of moving the
 documentation to codex?
 (6:43:10 AM) donncha_: sure, that's a great idea!
 (6:43:23 AM) donncha_: Trac was used before just because it was there
 (6:44:00 AM) MartinCleaver: Ok. So how about you email Matt and ask him to
 give me the rights to edit the trac wiki?
 (6:44:17 AM) donncha_: can you just copy/paste the content?
 (6:44:18 AM) MartinCleaver: cc me please: Martin at Cleaver.org
 (7:16:14 AM) MartinCleaver: donncha_: re: can I just copy & paste the
 content? Yes, but then I would need to keep a record of where I was in the
 process
 (7:16:30 AM) MartinCleaver: besides, I don't want duplicate content
 (7:16:45 AM) MartinCleaver: having a copy in trac and another on codex is
 very messy
 (7:16:55 AM) MartinCleaver: and demotivating for me
 (7:17:22 AM) MartinCleaver: so, no, I'd much rather do the work once I
 know it is going to be used
