Ichthyostega b556d2b770 clean-up: comb through the historical pages to fix markup errors
Some sections of the Lumiera website document meeting minutes,
discussion protocols and design proposals from the early days
of the project; these pages were initially authored in the
»Moin Moin Wiki« operated by Cehteh on pipapo.org at that time;
this wiki backed the first publications of the »Cinelerra-3«
initiative, which turned into the Lumiera project eventually.

Some years later, those pages were transliterated into Asciidoc
semi-automatically, resulting in a lot of broken markup and links.
This is a long standing maintenance problem problem plaguing the
Lumiera website, since those breakages cause a lot of warnings
and flood the logs of any linkchecker run.

Design Process : Distributed Development Framework
==================================================
[options="autowidth"]
|====================================
|*State* | _Final_
|*Date* | _2007-06-07_
|*Proposed by* | ct
|====================================
Distributed Development Framework
---------------------------------
Create our own toolset to track issues, tasks, bugs in a distributed manner.
Description
~~~~~~~~~~~
* Use git as backend
* Things get automatically updated/merged/pushed on a mob branch here
* Should be self-contained, checkout, ready to use
Tasks
~~~~~
* Serveral (shell?) scripts which ease the use
Rationale
~~~~~~~~~
* To cut the administrative overhead down
Comments
--------
Made this `final', this proposal got accepted and is already in use without
much discussion

[underline]#Historical remark#: Not sure what this RfC was meant to propose; +
During the next year, an ambitious side-project named »*uwiki*« was started,
with the goal to provide a wiki-like web frontend based on completely self-contained
storage in a Git repository, without requiring any kind of data base. This project,
however -- in spite of some compelling prototype implementations -- was abandoned;
it became clear that such a system can not be bootstrapped from a lightweight,
minimalist setup and would require a significant amount of web development
rather -- a task no one was willing to take on.
Yet the Lumiera project succeeded in building a web presence based on
https://asciidoc-py.github.io/[Asciidoc] sources checked into Git, with a lightweight
commit-hook script to automatically publish any changes on git-push -- a scheme
which comes close to the gist of this RfC.
