Fedora Defensive Coding Book

[Patrick Vavrina]

Hello,

I corrected the wiki link for the Defensive Coding Book:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Security_Team_Work_Flow#Defensive_Coding_book

Change:

https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora_Security_Team//html/Defensive...

to

https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora_Security_Team/1/html/Defensiv...


This document is outdated. Could we write a new version?

Is still the author Florian Weimer employee at Red Hat? 

Enjoy your time and stay safe!

Kind regards,
Patux

Yes, I'm still at Red Hat, but I work more directly on programming tools
these days.

There have always been problems with updating the published manual,
right from the start.  Over the years, several of us have tried
different ways of hosting it, but I think that never really worked out.

I personally like Docbook more than the newer markup languages, but I
think there is an Ascidoc conversion somewhere.  If that's the future,
that's fine with me.

I don't know if Fedora has an automated publication workflow for manuals
that provides a bit more review than the wiki.  It would make sense to
use it if it's available.

Thanks,
Florian

Yeah, the workflow for docs.fedoraproject.org uses a PR based review system.

Do you have to build RPMs before you can publish something, or is it all
automated once the PR is approved and merged?

No RPMs. (We stopped trying to do that several years ago.)

Great, then I suggest to move to this infrastructure if possible. 8-)
