discussion: documentation & Jabaco Wiki & TOC

Hi Everybody,

let's start a public discussion about how to organize tutorials, and parts of the documentation in the Jabaco Wiki.

Don't know what the Jabaco-Wiki is?
Just take a look at the top of the page. Below the Jabaco panther you will find two buttons:
"Community" "Tutorials"
if you click Tutorials you will enter the Jabaco Wiki

I heard many of you saying that documentation for Jabaco is very important, we should not let Manuel do the whole work. :)


greetings
OlimilO

Hello Oliver,
my suggestion for one possible structure of the explanations in the Jabaco Wiki:
1. Use (Verwendung = Erklärung des Einsatzzweckes)
2. PreConditions (Voraussetzungen)
3. Standard setup (Standardeinstellungen)
4. Activity (Aktivitäten = Durchführungsanweisungen)
5. Example (Beispiel)
Cheers
Stefan

Hi Oliver, hi Stefan,

A general question... or even two :D Number one: Why do the two of you always post in the english forum, getting answers from each other although you are both native german speakers? ;)

Number two: I am just starting with Jabaco (as you might know) but I've already learned much about VB6 (oh my god, sounds as if I were a small child just learning it and being proud I can show a MsgBox :D)... Would you think I can help with the Wiki or should I at first work more with Jabaco? In other words - are VB6 and Jabaco similar enough so I can contribute?

Hi Henrik,
my reasons to post in English:
- probably more readers can understand English
- practice my language skills
- it hurts less to write a "quick and dirty" text in a foreign language than in your mother tongue ;-)

Enough reasons?

Cheers!

There are ~ 25 percent german and ~ 33 percent native english speakers in this community. Most of the remaining 42 percent speak english as secondary language. It's cool to write with so many developers all over the world :) and nobody will condemn your contributions.

Hey Manuel,

I know that nobody will condemn it, I just wanted to know whether I can help at all with which I know about VB6 oder whether I should sit in my quiet cellar for a few months trying around with Jabaco and doing my homework ;)

I think I will try both: contributing to the Wiki and trying to improve my skills with Jabaco :D

Hey Henrik *huhu* *winkewinke* :D
