[Qemu-devel] Question: Updating wikis on QEMU website - what is the procedure?

[Aleksandar Markovic]

Hello, all.

I need to update soon following two pages on QEMU wiki website (https://wiki.qemu.org)

https://wiki.qemu.org/Documentation/Platforms/MIPS

and

https://wiki.qemu.org/Testing.

It looks these wikis are not editable by public (like it is the case for Wikipedia). How can I do the update I want?

Regards,
Aleksandar

You need an existing user to create an account for you[1].  I
just created one and I'll send you the password.

It's explained at <https://wiki.qemu.org/Main_Page>, under "Creating
Accounts".

... I've found your name and email address in three places in
"MAINTAINERS" (MIPS, Mipssim, Fulong 2E); I'm going to create an account
for you and send you the credentials off-list.

Thanks
Laszlo

Laszlo, the  problem is already solved, I've already got an account (20 min ago).

Apologies to everybody for the noise.

I won't -- I refresh email intermittently, but in such cases, I check
email just before clicking the button; and sure enough, Eduardo has
already handled it for you.
