Sounds good!On 22 September 2015 at 10:46, Vincent Rabaud via ros-release <ros-release@lists.ros.org> wrote:_______________________________________________Each page would itself have the usual ROS-distro macro (http://wiki.ros.org/WikiMacros#Version) that we love so much.Those icons would point to, e.g. :with all the previous Linux distros / OS icons we've detailed (e.g. http://wiki.ros.org/groovy/Installation had a bunch)What next ? I propose a central pageI am sad that good instructions for installing on non-Ubuntu platforms get lost over time (look at http://wiki.ros.org/fuerte/Installation, http://wiki.ros.org/groovy/Installation)Why ? For coherence with the rest of the wiki (package centric) and the advantages it brings: people can see that effort was made at some point for their favorite method, installation methods for old ROS distros might still be valid (e.g. Gentoo ), and instructions won't have to be duplicated for different ROS distributions as most of it is usually the same (e.g. OSX)
I propose to change the ROS installation page to be installation method / OS / Linux distribution centric and not ROS distribution-centric.
http://wiki.ros.org/Installation
http://wiki.ros.org/Gentoo
http://wiki.ros.org/Windows
http://wiki.ros.org/SourceInstallationI guess copying the content of the current/old pages will be the way to go (compared to linking). We will obviously keep the old links / pages valid.Opinions ?
