Initial Team Setup Tasks
- Ensure all team members have ICLAs filed (Started 13/02/18 In progress)
- Collect all Confluence and JIRA ids and ensure contributor permissions are setup (Started 13/02/18 and in progress)
- Skype call to talk about how to get started :
Brainstorming Ideas
How to get started with planning and organisation?
- Define a table of contents of the documentation that we want to produce and use it as the document structure within OFBiz.
- Define target (ordered) for documentation reader and usage (contextual help screen or function or component or "README" by component, function, process, or book or ...)
We want documents to be small and focussed on one topic (this will make it more re-usable).
We don't want to just copy and paste what we already have
We have a complete HR manual - could we use it as a first set of documents to all work on together?
We can start, in the same time as other documents, the "how to write documentation" page/section to be able to share
- how to use asciidoc syntax for specifics situation
- rules for trying to be homogeneous
At the beginning this page will be more a draft than a documentation but it can be help us to see if our documentation is usable by us 
Doing a small modification on showHelp view to have a header with a link a the main manual (which have links to all the other files 
)
Questions
How to test a process documentation, related (or not) with demo data ? (where to put source asccidoc files, how to arrive on it)
Which collaborations tools : jira, branch, github and with which rules
How the reader can search on multiple help files ?
How to be able to manage multi-language ? it's not a priority for ofbiz trunk but should be available on customer site (currently it's manage by content multi-language capabilities)
Tasks / actions available
Automatic translation for one file from docbook to asciidoc
