Talk:Aros

Orphan page
Please check the Aros/Developer/Zune/MessageBox (an Orphan page) to see if the content is usable or tag it for deletion. --Panic (talk) 07:20, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Yup, please delete page, see there (content and discussion), moved to Aros/Developer/Zune/Examples/Requester --RoMancer (talk) 14:50, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

Primer and Manual unified
...because Primer (/Developer/Zune/Beginner) and Manual (/Developer/Zune) was 99% redundant. But "manual" has the better URL. Primer should be deleted. (but I don't know how to mark a page for deletion.) --RoMancer (talk) 16:20, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

Missing user contribution
Although mentioning enough information for developers I cannot find information concerning contributions a user can make in order to give his support to the Aros project. This whole section is missing whilst aros.org does mention this part (http://aros.sourceforge.net/documentation/developers/contribute.php). Perhaps even a short mentioning of this with a direct link to the aros.org website is a small short solution ?

In my specific case I wanted to know more about translating catalogs. I seemed to be unable to make a logical entry in this wikibook because in this special case I wanted to know if I would have to do something special concerning codepages and using aros svn in relation to the .cd files. The nighly build part of this aros bookwiki mentions using ISO8859-15 but this is not valid for every catalog file.

I therefore think it would be wise mentioning a direct link to the aros.org website (http://aros.sourceforge.net/documentation/developers/translating.php) or an entry in this book explaining the procedure.

For somebody not having enough background: AFAIK one should use the language specific codepage the .cd file is created for in the first place. e.g. when making an english catalog ISO8859-15 english is the correct codepage but if the translation file is containing russian one should use the corresponding codepage used to create the file in the first place thereby omitting the requirement mentioned in the nightly build part of this wiki stating that the codepage should always be ISO8859-15.

All the above is perhaps logical and a piece of cake for the more expierenced ones but not for newbies and some clueless people (like myself).

As I am a compleet noob concerning wikibooks and especially in relation to the aros bookwiki I therefore mentioned the above in the hope somebody can confirm/dismiss the proposal and i would kindly ask for somebody more experienced in looking into this matter (e.g. dismissing my proposal or make an entry for it in the wikibook).
