Is it okay to open a wiki (similar to Arch Wiki) for MPR?

AUR users already maintaining packages know how to, but new prospecting maintainers might find it difficult to submit or maintain packages.

P.S. I absolutely love this project! Thanks for the hard work!

I'd actually like the current docs to function as that - I think a Wiki would be for more general content, and these docs for makedeb and MPR related stuff. With that, I also think Wikis are better suited to be managed by a distro such as Ubuntu or Debian.

Anything in specific you're looking for?

Thanks for the reply!

I could be wrong, but is there documentation on how to ssh into the server and set up git and how to set up / adopt / create a new package?

I know how to do that from AUR, but someone who has little experience with AUR may not.

It'll be great to give future package maintainers a jump start.

Thanks!

Some of the stuff you mentioned lives at https://docs.makedeb.org/mpr/using-the-mpr/uploading-pkgbuilds/, though adopting and stuff still needs a mentioning I think.
