Analysis

Overview

The goal of this task is to create a Frequently asked questions wiki page with collected questions and answers about Sophie2.

Task requirements

Currently, the FAQ wiki page exists FAQ, but it is empty. This page is included as topic in each forum.

  • Ask each team member to give at least two questions suitable for the FAQ wiki
  • Define sections for the wiki page
  • Fill in questions and answers in the page, defining an order for them into the appropriate sections

Task result

The result should be FAQ with questions you find usable.

Implementation idea

  • Send the team an e-mail containing link to the FAQ topic in forum asking to fill in at least two questions. The forum topic for this task is located here 14. Define a deadline for the questions.
  • Split the wiki page into following sections:
    • Setup and Troubleshooting
    • Sophie 2 Author
    • Sophie 2 Reader
    • Sophie 2 Server
    • I want to contribute

14 The forum topic, that may be used for collecting the information

Design

  • Collected questions from team members are located here.
  • Answer the questions collected until 2008.11.19, questions that are asked later will be append during next revisions of SCS_FORUM
  • Wiki page FAQ with proper sections will be created, each section will be included in the following forum topics:
  • Sorted questions
    • Getting Started
      • What is a Desktop Publishing System?
      • What do I need to read in order to get involved in the project?
      • Where can I get more explanation on a specific task?
      • What are extensions/extension points?
      • What exactly is Maven? I understood it can build projects and do some more things, but didn't get the idea of using it.
      • What do we do when a ticket has status "analysis accepted" but the "design" section is already written? Do we wait the owner to change its status or else?
      • What is a module and how is it different from a component?
      • How do I commit reports (there are no instructions about that in the wiki)?
      • Can I work from home without asking the team leader every time I decide to do that?
      • Are the actual working hours extracted from reports only (what if I miss a report or underestimate the time spent on a given task)?
      • Good Code Examples
    • Sophie 2.0 Author
      • Are there going to be any integration and possibilities to edit files created with Sophie 2's competitor programs such as Adobe InDesign, etc.?
      • Which are Sophie 2's advantages compared to other competitive products for desktop publishing?
      • Can I run Sophie 2 on a non-supported operating system?
    • Sophie 2.0 Reader

    • Setup and Troubleshooting
      • Why there are mistakes appearing in my project after an update?
    • Contributors
      • Is the contributor supposed to make design of a task or just implementation?
      • How much time could the contributor spend on a task that has 1 effort?
      • What kind of tasks will contributors work on?
      • Can 2 people work on one big task?
      • How will the code written by a contributor be tested?
      • What is the criteria for the score the contributor will get?
      • Will contributors choose tasks by themselves or will be given by a team member?
      • Will contributor work be independent from the other team members work? Will contributor work be synchronised with the other team members work?
