[seam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBSEAM-4585) Community documentation updates and improvements.

Community documentation updates and improvements. ------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-4585 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-4585 Project: Seam Issue Type: Task Components: Documentation Issues Affects Versions: The future Reporter: Lincoln Baxter III Priority: Optional Fix For: The future As part of an initiative to improve the experience for new and existing developers, community members getting involved with Seam and Weld, I am documenting a set of improvements to be made to the current state user-facing http://seamframework.org and related documentation. This task serves as a running list of inconsistencies, improvement areas, and erroneous information provided on SWFK.org (and related.) ==INCOMPLETE== * http://seamframework.org/Community/GettingStartedDevelopingTheSeamFramework -- page still references version 2.0 of Seam for new development, which is now a lie * http://seamframework.org/Download/SeamDownloads#H-SeamSVNRepository contains repo URLs that are now broken for SCM checkout. *** No clear place to get started using CDI/Weld/EE6 functionality - Persistence, Transactions, CDI, all need clear getting started information and tutorials. *** No good documentation about the Seam portlet bridge, which is a closely related project. Should add visible links. ***It is currently impossible to subscribe for email notifications of new comments or changes on a thread unless you are the author. This is a major limitation of the seamframework.org software. ** Need a better knowledge base, with integrated code snippets - people need use-case driven examples, sample apps aren't enough ** Should provide a guided tour to "get started with seam" - this is almost a reality, but the level of knowledge required to succeed is too high. ** Should provide a maven archetype for seam, or provide a link to one if it exists already -- this information is currently hidden or unavailable. ==COMPLETED== * Too hard to find JIRA links -- added JIRA links to sidenav -- Lincoln Baxter
