Talk:Main Page

Latest revision as of 06:07, 2 September 2005

Hey folks,

I've started the meta "Talk" page for the front page. All discussion on the content, layout for this "top-level" page should go here. Likewise for discussion on other pages, you should use the "Talk" channel. -- Alex 07:58 25 Jul 2003 (EDT)

Thanks for the setup work, Alex. I think it's useful to keep the top-level pages around for awhile. At some point, however, we'll want to move them out of the way and put Swarm_wiki up top. -- gepr 10:42 28 Jul 2003 (EDT) dfs

hi, just wondering why when i write here the page gets modified withouth asking for any password :)

[Anyone can come in and write whatever - not a good thing.]

That's the whole point of a wiki: collaborative editing and moderation. Other than spam (which we can quickly revert) mostly people who know something about Swarm will edit the site. If it gets too much, we may make login mandatory. --Alex 21:12, 29 Dec 2004 (EST)

-Swarm Development Group announces the release of Swarm 2.2 as the new stable release. The  many development snapshots have been consolidated into a single set of code for all the available platforms. Thanks to Marcus Daniels for preparing the release, and all of you who have helped develop and test snapshots on various platforms.
-* Source code, plus binaries for Windows, Fedora, and Mac OS X are available at the [[Swarm:_stable_release| stable release page]].
-* See the [[Swarm:_documentation| documentation page]] for the Swarm 2.2 documentation set.

-Not all aspects of the release are completely settled down and we expect some minor changes in how it is distributed for specific platforms. Here is what you can do:

-* If you identify problems, post them to the [[Swarm:_Mailing_lists| Swarm support email list]], and (better yet) try to find solutions and post those, too.

-* If you develop binary distributions for new platforms, etc., post them and an announcement on this wiki. (We encourage users to add things to this site! It's easy.)
