Re: PostgreSQL Developer Network

Dear People,

After a long time of various timeouts, I managed to get back on track
developing the long promised PQDN website. As some of you might know. I was
working on a project called the PostgreSQL Developer Network.

The websites (which is a la MSDN) is meant to provide a knowledge base for
the precious programming knowledge regarding writing code for PostgreSQL.
Hopefully with your contribution it would be a great place for the ones
(like me) who would like to contribute.

The websites is being developed on www.truesoftware.net:8081/pgdn/ using
PHP5 and of course PostgreSQL 8.0.3

Please do not hesitate to share your ideas.

Kind regards,

Gevik

Dear All,

PGDN has a new treeview face. I would like to know your opinion on the
current state of the website.

If there are people who have ideas about different topics please don't
hesitate to let me know.

The current development site is:

Regards,

Gevik.

It's empty. Could you tell us a little bit about what you want to put
there?

The idea behind the PGDN is to provide a knowledgebase for pg developers.
I was thinking about gathering howto's, articles, questions and answers and
Of cource for those soles who are just starting programming pg to provide a
getting started portal...

TIP 8: explain analyze is your friend

It's great that you want to help in this area, but wouldn't be a better
idea to revamp techdocs.postgresql.org?

My take on this. For a while I've tried to setup my own internal
documentation system for my company but it turned out to be half-baked,
unfriendly to use, etc. Mainly because I have to spend most of my time
doing product development and end up with zero time to work on the
documentation.

Then I gave up and decided to try out some of the various Wiki packages.
Wiki is where it's at for colloborative documents. Since your preferred
languange is PHP, take a look at MediaWiki. They have a beta that works
with PostgreSQL.
