<p>Hi there, <br>
</p>
<p>This was a point that came up at the last FLOSS Manuals meeting.
<br>
</p>
<p>The proposal was to archive most of the FLOSS Manuals content in
the process of moving to a new Booktype 2.x installation apart
from active or most valued ones , and for me to come up with a
suggestion on how to do that. <br>
I've got a suggestion which is... <br>
</p>
<ul>
<li>Pick at top 20 of manuals which we would like to promote and
try to keep updated. <br>
</li>
<li>Migrate those and any that have changed significantly since
the last migration to the current write.flossmanuals.net<br>
</li>
<li>Update the web links of older manuals to point to the relevant
part of <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://archive.flossmanuals.net/">http://archive.flossmanuals.net/</a> for example one like
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://archive.flossmanuals.net/ffmpeg2theora/">http://archive.flossmanuals.net/ffmpeg2theora/</a><br>
</li>
</ul>
<p>I actually think this could be a really positive thing, we get
loads of hits still, and lots of requests to get involved as
volunteers but it's not always clear where to get them started. <br>
I think this kind of focus could really help. <br>
</p>
<p>I'm not sure the best way to pick the top 20 odd manuals however,
any suggestions?<br>
</p>
<p>Thanks<br>
Mick<br>
