We did actually hire a technical documentation person at one point, but it didn't work out. I hope we find another one some day.

From: "David Gerard"dgerard@gmail.com As I understand it, WMF has (a) hundreds of Apaches (b) running Ubuntu. How do you set up the Apaches to a substantially-identical configuration? I looked on the wikitech wiki and couldn't see it.
(I ask only for my own interest - I currently want to take the Debian/Ubuntu apache2 out and have it shot.)
You may be asking only for your own interest. I, on the other hand... well, I'd like to know for my own interest as well. On the other hand....
Boss-people: at what point is it cost effective for Wikimedia to detail someone at least part time to cleaning up and updating all of the various bits of outdated technical documentation on wm.org and meta and other such places to current and accurate? This seems like it would benefit the WMF technical staff just as much as we the public...
