The manual pages you had at http://www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/Manual were SO much better than what you have at http://docs.mongodb.org/manual. Why did you get rid of a bunch of the pages at www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/Manual? The site at docs.mongodb.org/manual is just infuriating me at how difficult it is to find the information I'm looking for. Reporter: Ryan Gerard |

Sorry for the confusion. The project to replace the legacy documentation on www.mongodb.org has been ongoing for more than a year, and was inspired by a need to have documentation that was more up to date, easier to keep up to date, easier to get community involvement and submissions, and easier to maintain multiple versions in parallel. The new manual succeeds in this task, in a way that the old documentation could not. We're very sorry for any hiccups and inconvenience that you may be experiencing along the way. We are in the process of redirecting all existing links to the Manual as the content is replicated, and we have a particular focus on maintaining the legacy documentation until new documentation exists that allows us to migrate the data without any information loss. For a comparable page to the Manual page you link in the old documentation, consider the following page: http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/contents/ I hope this helps, and if you have any specific suggestions about the new manual (topics you'd like to see improved, interface changes, points of organizational confusion,) please feel free to open another ticket in the future or write the documentation team directly at docs@10gen.com Regards, |
