How To Create An Issue

For detailed information on how to create an issue in the documentation repository, please refer to the "How To Create An Issue" guide.

This process overrides all previous practices, and aims to formalize and simplify the process of creating requests for change within the ownCloud documentation.

Issues should no longer be created in any of the other ownCloud repositories. Doing so makes it too difficult and time-intensive to stay on top of all the requests for change relating to documentation.

What’s more, issues created in other repositories may be closed without being actioned (though more than likely they’ll be gently requested to be recreated within this repository).

Style Guide

For detailed information, please refer to the ownCloud Style Guide. Otherwise, source files are written using the Sphinx Documentation Generator. The syntax follows the reStructuredText style, and can also be edited from GitHub.
