Hello all
Everybody talks about improving public relations (PR). Here is one opportunity to do something useful for U++ users and that could help to improve our PR.
UltimateBook goal is to get a book from all project documentation.
This is another use of Bazaar page: not just documenting a project, but being the project page . I think this focus is useful to launch new initiatives with more than one person.
The project is in an initial phase: to get people and to define what to do from here.
Best regards
Koldo
Hello,
the book idea is excellent. However I would suggest (I am not original) to put some effort in preparing two or three screencast to show two o three very easy project. "TheIde setting and compiling the library", "Hello World", and some other example already present in reference to show how to work with designer.
The purpose of these clips (even without voice is OK) is to show how fast one can achieve the wanted purpose.
In these days the screencasts are very popular and have a big impact on the users looking for something effective but has no time to go in the details of documentation. After such a video I think the user has enough motivation to read the documentation and easily recognise its power.
