coordination #12134

Updated by okurz almost 8 years ago

Potential improvement points: 

 * add wikipedia page describing openQA 
 * someone could write a recent blog article 
 * keep track of reference sources describing / tracking openQA, e.g. wikipedia list 

 ## wikipedia 
 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_GUI_testing_tools listed openQA but  
 unfortunately no separate wikipedia article for openQA which it IMHO deserves.  
 openQA was actually listed as "discontinued" since an anonymous edit from  
 2016-02 which I corrected to being active citing the page http://os-autoinst.github.io/openQA/. Maybe the broken OBS link as reported in #9436 was  
 making the wikipedia change author to think it is not active which would be  
 sad and probably something we want to avoid in the future. 
 I corrected this but the entry was deleted as visible in https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_GUI_testing_tools&diff=prev&oldid=709701233 as it was stated that there is no article describing openQA. 

 But there was a page "OpenQA" which unfortunately got deleted as well: 
 https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=delete&user=&page=OpenQA&year=&month=-1&tagfilter=&subtype= 
 Reasons stated are:

 Does anyone know who might have created that wikipedia article and what we can do to come up with a safe version of it? 

 Would it help to dual-license some content, e.g. our README under CC-BY-SA or something?
