 Several RSP representatives (Mohan, Anne, Hugo and Galen) met last month to talk about documentation and training. Mohan is going to distribute a list of existing documentation that is ready for proofreading. Galen expressed some interest in building a reference manual to complement the "Learning" book. Some possibilities for future training sessions were discussed. A follow-up call is scheduled for next week, March 22 at 8am EDT. Several RSP representatives (Mohan, Anne, Hugo and Galen) met last month to talk about documentation and training.

 +There was some discussion about the reference manual idea -- Galen's inspiration comes from the Evergreen project, where [[https://docs.evergreen-ils.org/eg/docs/latest/shared/about_this_documentation.html|documentation]] is maintained as part of the same source repo as the code, using ASCII doc format. This could better support having version-specific documentation in appropriate and accessible places, and could relieve some of the burden from the wiki (e.g. the wiki can just link to the documentation where appropriate).
