<p>hi mick,</p>
<p>great that you are getting onto this & nice to see the
wayback snap of the infant FM :) <br>
</p>
<p>can you move the UpStage v3 manual to the archive site? we are
now using the new UpStage & have nearly finished its manual -
we're doing it on french FM
(<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://fr.flossmanuals.net/upstage-v4-english/_draft/_v/1.0/introduction/">https://fr.flossmanuals.net/upstage-v4-english/_draft/_v/1.0/introduction/</a>)
as this was easiest for elisa to set up, & we've all benefited
from learning french terms like enregister & telecharger :)</p>
<p>h : )<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi there, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’ve been working with Alexandre Porres
from the pure data community to correct older versions of our
pure data manual and the current one.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This has highlighted that archived
resources could do more to point to more current versions and
ideally remove completely redundant versions of manuals.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This reflects the current focus of the
FLOSS Manuals project to maintain existing manuals as archived
work – and to update documentation for existing project where
appropriate – and signpost to other relevant materials and
resources in line with FLOSS Manuals ethos. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">So, I’ve finally pulled the plug on
write.flossmanuals.net – although the site is still available
here<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://floss.booktype.pro/"
moz-do-not-send="true">http://floss.booktype.pro/</a> -
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’ll ask for that to be taken down at the
end of the year – so if there is still anything useful there
that isn’t part of
<a href="http://archive.flossmanuals.net"
moz-do-not-send="true">http://archive.flossmanuals.net</a>
then please do go grab it.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">write.flossmanuals.net – now forwards to
archive.flossmanuals.net<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Volunteer/s Request<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Would anyone be up for taking on a project
to include a header banner for the archive site that signposts
reader to more updated manuals when they exist?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The archive site is in flat html. So some
kind of script to inject header material would be needed. And
some design work to create a nice looking header.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Here’s a link to the current archive site
on gitlab<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><a
href="https://gitlab.com/flossmanuals/archive.flossmanuals.net"
moz-do-not-send="true">https://gitlab.com/flossmanuals/archive.flossmanuals.net</a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">and here’s a link to an early version of
flossmanuals.net capture by archive.org – it has a header at
the top of the page saying wayback machine – it’s this kind of
injected header that I’m talking about.
<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Hope you are all doing well. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you are ever in the north of England
come visit me at a new Making / Repairing space that I’m doing
in a town called Todmorden -
