Michael, Do you have specific examples of parts of the SCons documentation which is out of date? Generally the only time we refer folks to different docs would be when they are looking at the manpage and the users guide would be a better resource or vice versa, or as Mats said when a user is looking an old version which they found via google or via link from some other project and we refer them to the current version (or in some cases if they are using an older version of SCons, to the correct docs for that version). -Bill On Fri, Nov 4, 2022 at 1:04 PM Michael Potter <[email protected]> wrote: > > Here are two things that I think would be beneficial to get done for > someone new to the project: > > Get the documentation up to date. > > The context of that question is: historically, I have asked a question > about documentation and someone will tell me that doc is old and I should > be using different documentation. > > This is a common issue with open source projects: The doc gets stale or > needs to reference the version that the doc is good for. > > On Thu, Nov 3, 2022 at 3:51 PM Mats Wichmann <[email protected]> wrote: > >> On 11/3/22 11:48, Avichal Mishra wrote: >> > Hey there, >> > I am Avichal.
