Dear Senior Monks of PM,
Re: suggestions for placement of new user experience/feedback
I've placed some notes and things I didn't find in the tutorials in my home node. Some of which might be worth mining or - if not adding to a proper non-editable/non-commentable FAQ - adding to a PM-newbie thread as a comment:
Is there such a preferred node to add comments to - and I missed it - or is this indeed material for a full RFP medition as ww suggested via cb?
thanx,
Peter
Update: Actually I think that there are too many nodes adding some details to say the 2 major introduction texts. And now I added one more by using my home node to collect IMHO hard-to-find meta-information under the heading of Perlmonks - the missing Memes.
Concentrating such information say as footnotes in or RFC thread(s) for the main intros would have helped me a bit - it doesn't need to be fully integrated in the FAQs.
The main time-sinks examples in my case were:
- line wrapping in code section and the css scrap to get the textarea to have a sane
width - not knowing where to look or even of their existance, those are way too easy to miss.
- finding the console scripts for use in xterms to edit nodes or use chatterbox (with the home work to patch
them to make them work again on Unix).
- The chatterbox nodelet vs page reload after using the chatterbox is also a nice little newbie trap
If a reader of this finds the official thread for such comments, please /msg me about it -
I'd love to clean up my home node's meme section and move most of it to a well-linked official thread.
