Mostly targeting potential users:

http://ansible.github.com/html/faq.html

This obsoletes the comparisons.md file in git. This should help explaining what the point of the project is, if the home page didn’t do it well enough already.

The front page also has photography featuring stargates, blurry people, and tubes.

http://ansible.github.com/html/index.html

All Raleigh, NC area landmarks, of sorts.

That’s enough web stuff for a few days, immediate plans include abstracting out the SSH transport, and some module error handling upgrades in preparation for a proper 0.02 release in the near future.

Hi
I get a page does not exist from github when trying to go to the project main page. Did the page got accidentally broken?

Regards

Actually I fixed something.

“ansible/html/” files are now just “ansible/html”

so it’s just ansible.github.com/faq.html

(I will note there is a bug with github itself to where the absolute latest versions of certain files aren’t “live”, so there are a few small errors on the “examples” page
and various updates that are not live on the site yet, for instance sometimes “-a” is left off a few commands, and there’s a missing “-m” in a few places. I’ve filed a support ticket with github so the page builds can work again)

Thanks,
github is normally quite good with getting problems fixed.

Yep, we’re all resolved now on the build issue – it was actually on my end inside the docs project. A push tonight will result in the examples page being a lot more up to date, and will also add some relevant cross linking to the docs.

This will also include updates to the documentation about how async operations work, which are wrong in the present version (but right in my last email thread on the subject).

Updated docs now pushed. I removed the underlying git submodule that was breaking the docs build.

Examples should now be all mostly correct, let me know if you see something that doesn’t work or is wrong.
