Steve, It looks like that’s a bit of text we missed updating. Some time ago the main site you’re looking at was on a wiki platform that repeatedly was being compromised, so we moved away from it. It’s all exactly the same content, just minus the bugs and everyone can edit features. Thanks, Nigel

Bill, It’s not actually on *GitHub* the service (though we do have some of the code/utilities we’ve made up there). It does live in a git repo, we just host it ourselves instead of using the GitHub service. Nigel

Thanks for the update Nigel. I knew there was a GitHub repository and I knew the web pages have moved to git - I just didn't know where the home was. Bill
Nigel / all: OK... On the WEBSITE, I see some content that needs attention, and I'd like to volunteer to do some editing. In particular, these two lines are links that are dead: Poynting 5.9 GHz 30 dBi grid or 2 ft solid dish antenna Mikrotik RouterBOARD Metal 5SHPn Wi-Fi radio Probably should direct to the hardware recommendations.

Steve, I believe there has been some work recently (perhaps not published yet), on providing a writeup specifically on how to contribute to web site updates. Perhaps one of the folks who has been working on that will chime in on if it’s ready for a beta tester. With regards to the link for web chat. I just checked, though it’s not entirely intuitive, the password checkbox is an option, but is not required. It does seem to want you to supply a username, which in the past we prepopulated for you, before you can actually launch the chat. Nigel

Steve, I haven't answered as I've been letting it go to the guys who set it up. I don’t know your background so I don't know what all web authoring tools/languages you're familiar with. As mentioned by Dakota, the current website his housed and managed within a git repo, and I believe most of it is written in markdown. If you know those environments and are comfortable with them, probably Bart, Nigel, or maybe Tom are your better starting points to get access and get going. Thanks for the interest in helping out.

Steve, IIRC it was Doug who was working on instructions, and had been hoping he’d chime in for a beta tester. If I’m mistaken then my apologies Doug. Dakota, That repo is understandably misleading. It’s something of a backup of the old system, but does not represent the current site and editing scheme. All, Tom may be able to elaborate more, but we have an internal git repo not hosted on GitHub, and Tom set up a GitLab instance that may be a valid method for editing. Alternately the repo can be checked out to your computer directly, edits made, and then pushed for review and merge. Bart has been acting as our review/merge master. The various steps in this is why I was hoping for the chime in with regards to the recent work on documenting some instructions, but haven’t heard anything yet. Nigel

Gitlab is out of sync at this point now and can't be used for website PRs. When I set up Gitlab, I also set up git-lfs to remove our large assets from the repo--repo size had been a common complaint. I announced the rebase, but it was ignored and changes continued on the old repo. This left two versions of history--essentially two different git repos.

Thanks to those of you who replied, both on the list and privately explaining how the HamWAN / PSDR web page is set up for editing using local Git repositories. My expertise is writing and content generation. I'll admit that I'm just not up to speed sufficiently about Git / repos, etc. for the purpose of updating the HamWAN / PSDR web page. At the moment, I'm sufficiently saturated with other projects that I'm not able to devote the time to GET up to speed on Git / repos, etc. and then be able to edit the HamWAN / PSDR web page. Perhaps, later in the year when my projects and personal situation calm down a bit, I'll be able to devote the required time to do so.
