[NBP web-reskin] Let's Git InSync

[Edie Coletti]

Hello Team:

I would like to get all of the camps back in sync with camp29. So, to that
end, could you please address the following:

1. Does camp29 contain the most up-to-date version of web reskin? Is
development taking place on any other camps? 

2. What camps will *not* be used? Each camp takes up resources so if there
are camps that are not going to be used I would like to stop or delete them

3. There are several files that have been modified in camp29, but have not
been committed. Can these files be committed, if not, can they be "checkout"
to restore the file to its prior version.

 

The task of providing new & revised content to the team (and in particular
Steve) is proving a bit cumbersome and time consuming. I would like to
propose another tactic and get your thoughts.  Once I have camp26 in sync
with camp29, I'll start updating camp26 with the new & revised content
(including images & media). Before committing these modifications, I'll pull
in any changes that have been committed by other camps so there won't be any
conflicts between camps, and then I'll commit my changes and pull them into
camp29 and any other camps being used. If changes have been made in the
other camps and not yet committed, Git won't let me overwrite them, so work
won't be lost.  As a rule, revisions made on camp29 will be considered the
current version; camp26 will be used only as a means to distribute content,
not for development. 

 

I'll start with the content for Braille Bookstore and move from left to
right on horizontal menu bar, then top to bottom on the left vertical menu
bar. Each time I complete the content for a menu option; I'll notify the
team and include a list of all the files and their location.  Revised and
existing content will be stripped of references to the old templates and new
content will be brought over as a Word doc in order to retain the formatting
(headers, bullet points, bolding, etc.) which will then need to be
translated into html code. 

 

Thought there are a lot of files, if I do a decent job prepping the files,
then adding the reskin, while tedious, should go rather quickly (she says
with great optimism).

 

Again, let me know your thoughts and thanks for all your help.

Edie
