Yes, this is a very good idea. Do you have time to comb through techbase and post a list of URLs here of content that will be removed? That content then can be pulled and placed on the Trinity Desktop website.

That content then can be pulled and placed on > the Trinity Desktop website. TechBase has already eliminated some content. It would be necessary to pull and place all content about kde3 on Trinity Desktop website. KDE3 is now TDE and this content is the basement for a techbase.tde, a place for TDE developers. In the future this base should be updated with the changes as "libtqtinterface" THE STARTING POINT IS THIS: http://techbase.kde.org/Category:KDE3 http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/KDE3 All content and links should be downloaded and uploaded to trinitydesktop. Some links lead to ibm website. The content is also relevant. For example. http://techbase.kde.org/Category:KDE3 link Development/Architecture/KDE3/DCOP http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Architecture/KDE3/DCOP link Connect KDE applications using DCOP http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-dcop/index.html?ca=dgr-kdeml01KDEDCOP As you see "Connect KDE applications using DCOP" is a relevant content that link from techbase.kde to ibm. This content should be uploaded to trinity desktop because is the technology architecture of TDE. This is an example, I have seen more links from techbase to ibm. Httrack could help downloading all pages and links. I am thinking that maybe HTTRACK could be useful for download all content and links from the starting point and then upload to trinity website. Later, in future, content would be updated to reflect changes. Some relevant content doesn't exist anymore: http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/KDE3 link KIO tutorial http://www.heise.de/ct/english/01/05/242/ (but it doesn't exist) Searching with google for KIO content of kde3 I found this link: http://fixunix.com/kde/148398-re-kde-kioslave-docs.html There are 4 links on how kioslaves work within kde but no one works. 3 of them link to developer.kde, that is to say, techbase.kde OK. This is the question. Is it not possible that the webmaster of techbase keep any copy of the removed content? You could ask to techbase webmaster for kde3 deleted content for uploading to trinity. we can probably find all the old files on the wayback machine. They've archived a ton of stuff and I bet we can find anything missing there. (In reply to comment #4) > we can probably find all the old files on the wayback machine.

Perhaps it is not necessary a time machine. Perhaps in some kde server it could be find a backup, dated 2008, of the website http://developer.kde.org/. Because TDE is a fork of kde3, why do not fork the website for kde developers in time of kde 3.5.10? In 2008 this was developer.kde.org. That would be a good starting point because TDE it is the very kde3. Hmmm. We could get the raw files and import them to our wiki. It is the same software so it should work well Another page that should be useful to pull to the trinitydesktop website. Getting started subversion. TechBase are moving pages that are no longer useful for kde. However the page below, I think, is important to TDE. http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started/Sources/Subversion (In reply to comment #7) > Hmmm.

Looks as if they are using MediaWiki. my mistake. Either way the formatting should be relatively easy to copy and paste then fix the formatting errors by hand. Add the following handbook to the list of handbook to be ported to TDE Wiki website: http://openbooks.sourceforge.net/books/kde20devel/ |
