The Next Steps

[Raphael Mack]

Hi,

so you might not have recognized, I managed to get ET back to work
(even though not yet on the 32 bit instance, but maybe we can also drop
that in the long term) and also updated the MediaWiki so I could re-
enable the write access.

Also the NetBSD fix from Krishna is merged, thanks for the patch!

When I was at it I remembered the next steps in terms of
infrastructure: the debian packages do not properly build anymore, due
to the huge amount of HTML we generate for the libraries with our
current version of eiffeldoc and there was no easy fix to significantly
reduce it. So if anyone is willing to help out here it would be great.

And we can discuss the level, from the pure HTML-redesign (which would
not even require any Eiffel experience at all) and someone else could
apply the changes up to a full blown redesign of eiffeldoc. The only
important target is, that we can generate docs from the source code,
which is browsable in an easy way and reduces the storage size compared
to today's dump "let's do many HTML files" approach significantly.
Making it more nice and with a modern look and feel would be great but
not essential.

Best regards,
Rapha
