COD Documentation Addenda

Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.
You are viewing a wiki page. You are welcome to join the group and then edit it. Be bold!

Here's a start at some documentation. (revised on 3/15/2010) As part of this wiki, I'll try to look at the COD Roadmap and tackle some of the items listed there. http://groups.drupal.org/node/78853

I've volunteered to help support this project by contributing to the COD documentation. Lisa and Ezra have encouraged me to dive in. But before I tackle anything in the main COD documentation pages, I'd like to get the pulse of COD users and see where the biggest "need" is regarding documentation.

The best way to describe what I'd like to do in this thread is simply list the things that I have struggled with or had major questions about. Then I'll begin writing around those items and make child page addenda to the main COD documentation. But I also want input from others. So...

Hey giftsketcher, I've enabled comments on this wiki now, since people are more likely to contribute that way. Thanks for volunteering to help with documentation. As we add new features and whatnot, it's going to be harder to keep the documentation up to date.

Documentation on creating the schedule

rixter's picture

I would like to see more documentation on creating the schedule. I'm new to COD, but just committed my company to using it for a 2014 conference. Am using the latest COD distro for D7, and heard via IRC at #drupal-cod that creating the schedule changed a bit in D7. Since the above comments are from 2011, I assume something must have been done by now?
