I see your point about eliminating duplication of effort... somewhat less so about failing QA for lack of documentation... undocumented features become a support issue, and that falls in my lap ;-).

I agree with Katrin here, I have been slowly working manual submissions into my QA workflow with requests for patch authors to submit a corresponding manual submission at the same time as the Bugzilla entry.

Documenting notices feels like it fits in nicely with that.. rather than requiring double work (POD + Manual) we should be requiring just one place be updated.

I'd have no issues with adding a specific coding guideline for this sort of thing however.. right now I just encourage corresponding manual merge requests but I can't really Fail QA on a patch that doesn't have one.

Hi,
 
I feel if we want one source of truth besides the source code, it would make sense to submit patches to the manual directly instead of adding more documentation outside of it. Adding a POD file will need another person to work on adding it to the manual regularly. Let's not make things more complicated!

Betreff: Re: [Koha-devel] Notices and slips documentation RFC
The field guide is based on the wiki page, which I maintained... but I think that developers should be documenting any notices they add, which is why I've added this to the agenda for Wednesday's dev meeting:
 
Review of coding guidelines

Thanks,
It's ok with the url but you can't find it (or I can't find it) directly
on 18.05 documentation page
