Currently does not fit into the flow of the general argument. * ChaosBook.org lacks a bookcover - a page of web text that says what the book is about.

Finalize it - repository ChaosBook/backblurb.html === careful proofreading/completing nearly finished text === * completing a chapter means [[http://chaosbook.org/boyscouts/editProtocol.html|completing it]]. * [[chaosbook:measure|Transporting densities]], [[chaosbook:average|Averaging]], [[chaosbook:trace|Trace formulas]], [[chaosbook:det|Spectral determinants]], [[chaosbook:recycle|Cycle expansions]] block of chapters can be finalized now === illustrations === On Sun, 29 Jun 2008, wrote: :-\ Is it OK to insert illustrations in others people sections or change existing ones? It would be nice if all the illustrations follow one style and I thought we could stick to PCs hand drawings and something else for the rest. --- //Ronnie Mainieri 2008-0629// {{gtspring2009:pc.jpg }} ChaosBook lacks many many illustrations, compared to what we draw when we lecture on this material. * See where you would like to add/edit illustrations, and talk to PC about which ones you want to do ahead of doing them. Please keep *.eps small, in KB's rather than 100s of KB's - otherwise the ChaosBook.pdf will explode. * record the secrets of generating small figures in "[[gtspring2009:howto:format#figures|How to format figures]]" ===== Hiccups ===== [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z83WWw3WtpE|Enter latest posts at the top, blog-style]] {{gtspring2009:gibson.png?24 }} Recent insights: A thread is a new page with a discussion at the bottom. %%{{threads>namespace:threadname}}%% enables creation of these new pages. The most recently modified thread always gets listed on top. For channelflow discussion, I create discussion topic pages like with normal dokuwiki links %%[[installation]], [[programming]]%%, and then I put a "new threads" box %%{{threads>installation}}%% within those pages. Maybe should be within a ''discussion'' namespace, but no ''channelflow'' namespace since channelflow is the root. // John Gibson 2009-02-13 19:42 EST// {{gtspring2009:gibson.png?24 }} Ah, I see. Sorry about garbling the discussions and my errant finger pointing. I'll put them back in. I read up on [[http://www.dokuwiki.org/namespaces|dokuwiki namespaces]] and have a better idea how to do this now, namely %%{{threads>namespace:threadname}}%%, e.g. %%{threads>chaosbook:intro}%% which could be started from here or from a %%[[chaosbook:intro]]%% page. OK. Trying this %%{{threads>chaosbook}}%%: {{threads>chaosbook}} // John Gibson 2009-02-12 20:16 EST// {{gtspring2009:pc.jpg }} Thanks, and sorry. I did not put them there - it is the %%{{threads>threadname}}%% command that you have now removed from this page (and along with it the discussion window that unregistered people could enter posts in) that generated these pages. Back to zero - now no chapter has a discussion window, I think they used to have them. --- //[[predrag.cvitanovic@physics.gatech.edu|Predrag Cvitanovic]] 2009-02-12 14:58// {{gtspring2009:gibson.png?24 }} When you create pages for chaosbook, make sure to put them in the chaosbook namespace by starting the dokuwiki link with ''chaosbook:'', e.g. %%[[chaosbook:intro:maps]]%%. There were a bunch of chaosbook topics in the dokuwiki root namespace, which is for channelflow stuff. I moved them and fixed a number of links. If you encounter other broken links please fix them. Thanks! //John Gibson 2009-02-12// {{gtspring2009:pc.jpg }} I have no control of how these threads are ordered? They should be ordered as the chapters in the book are ordered. Maybe [[http://demo.chimeric.de/plugin:blog|blog plugin]] would be better, but it does not work for me yet... --- //[[predrag.cvitanovic@physics.gatech.edu|Predrag Cvitanovic]] 2009-01-28 05:37// {{gtspring2009:gibson.png?24 }} use %%{{threads>threadname}}%% syntax to start one discussion window per chapter. {{:gtspring2009:svnpc.jpg|}}
