Revision as of 20:44, 12 September 2005

Very Soon

  1. Set up a backup routine.
    1. Make sure we're backing up all the right things. In particular, httpd.conf should probably be backed up.
  2. Finish Extending/Modifying KnotTheory`.
  3. Prepare List of Modules in KnotTheory`.
  4. Fix/improve the "disappearing transclusion" tag <ifpageexists>.
  5. Systematic updates of the executable programs (KnotTheory`, WikiLink.m, splicers). See Category:Software. Set up a CVS? Subversion? Sourceforge?
  6. Further edit How you can contribute.
  7. Add "comment" hooks near each of the sections on the knot pages.
  8. Write Knot Atlas:About and Knot Atlas:General disclaimer.
  9. Link to us from relevant pages on wikipedia and elsewhere.
  10. Eliminate the need for "&action=purge" after editing a comments section.
  11. "Similar Links" using The Multivariable Alexander Polynomial; add the The Multivariable Alexander Polynomial to the simulated Mathematica sessions.

At Leisure

  1. Update this To Do list.

wiki interface issues

  1. can texvc use dvi2bitmap instead of convert? might be much faster? [1]
    1. alternatively see [2]
