The Wiki is in need of cleaned up. A list of specifics is below. Feel free to add and discuss.
- Prune content that is already included as part of Octave's Homepage, Octave Forge, Octave's Manual.
- What about MXE? Couldn't we use it to generate binaries with hydra?
- Add installation notes for Windows
- Cygwin
- WIndows XP
- Windows Vista
- Windows 7
- MinGW
- WIndows XP
- Windows Vista
- Windows 7
- MSVS
- WIndows XP
- Windows Vista
- Windows 7
- Cygwin
- Add installation notes for MacOS X.
- MacOS 10.5 (Leopard)
- MacOS 10.6 (Snow Leopard)
- MacOS 10.7 (Lion)
- Add installation notes for Linux distributions. Should this be organized by distribution, or by package management?
- CentOS
- Debian
- Fedora
- openSUSE
- Ubuntu
- Others
- Do you mean installation or building notes? In my opinion, a page for building from source with subsections for each distro, rather than a page for each distro would be better, otherwise we will end up repeating text a lot. I don't know the specifics of OS other than Linux but from what I see on the mailing list, they appear to be quite peculiar. As such, maybe a different page for non-Linux. Or to avoid OSism (OS racism) a general page about building from source with interwiki links for OS specific instructions. carandraug 06:39, 16 January 2012 (PST)
- Add installation nodes for commercial Unix distributions.
- Reorganization of the content: In my opinion the entry page of the wiki shouldn't have a lot of clutter, only meanigful titles which are linked to the specific wiki site.
