    What will become of the current Automic Documentation site, docs.automic.com? Will it remain? Will its content be migrated elsewhere? If the documentation is going to be moved, will links to pages on docs.automic.com break? Our internal wiki contains hundreds of deep links to Automic documentation pages, and we would be significantly inconvenienced if they suddenly stopped working.

     

    Also, the Automic Documentation used to be tightly integrated with the old Automic Community. It was possible to add community-based comments to any documentation page. This was a terrific feature, because it allowed users to provide direct feedback on documentation, and add community-curated examples to flesh out the often sparse and outdated ones in the documentation. Will this capability return? Moreover, what happened to the user content previously added to Automic documentation pages?
