Hi,

This is a notice for those who do not follow docteam list.

"Developer manual" (final name is not yet decided) is a process to replace the old "Common Plone programming recipes" tutorial. It is aimed to be a community maintained effort to have sane Plone developer documentation. It will mainly consist of snippets of code to show how to use Plone API and references to other documentation.

Current effort is in collective SVN until Plone Help Center gets updated.

For more information, read this post:

See the current effort:

https://svn.plone.org/svn/collective/collective.developermanual/trunk/

I am looking for volunteers to contribute to the effort - mainly seasoned Plone developers. If you encounter undocumented tasks in your daily Plone work, just drop few lines of code snippets to the developer documentation repository as plain text, restructured text or HTML text files. I'll arrange all of it together later.

Some example areas which need to be covered: working with Archetypes objects, using portal_catalog, events, using workflows programmatically, migrating old Common Plone recipes documentation.

Cheers, Mikko
