===Contributing to MageiaCauldron :-)===
Well, some rules of thumb apply:
~- see PageIndex for naming your pages
~- use [[CategoryCategory appropriate categories]], see WikiCategory
~- use meaningful titles for your page, and choose a first title to auto-describe your page (it will appear in the title page)

===Advanced contributions are possible to MageiaCauldron===
If you need to upload images or things to http://download.tuxfamily.org/cauldron you'll need:
~- an account at https://panel.tuxfamily.org/
~- being added to the project http://projects.tuxfamily.org/group.pl?name=cauldron
~- configure your ssh access to ssh.tuxfamily.org http://faq.tuxfamily.org/User/En#SSH_access
~~- add a ssh_keys file with your public key in your home
~~- test your access, you should see
%%ssh ssh.tuxfamily.org # if you're using the same login on tuxfamily and your computer
$ cd cauldron
$ ls -1
cauldron-repository # a virtual directory that push whatever you upload to http://download.tuxfamily.org/cauldron (two other servers in reality)
cauldron_wiki.mysql.dump # well, the database export, for backuping purpose
mageiacauldron.tuxfamily.org-web # all that is in the web area at http://mageiacauldron.tuxfamily.org%%
Static files are better on the download where the quota is 1 GB by default


===Usage example===
scp Mageia*png baud123@ssh.tuxfamily.org:/home/cauldron/cauldron-repository/mageia/stats/ # will upload nice images in the directory available at http://download.tuxfamily.org/cauldron/mageia/stats/ (yes there's a mapping of the tree :D)

Other uses are possible:
~- scripts
~- images, screenshots, either in SVG or PNG
~- packages src.rpm + rpm + spec
~- documentations in PDF, .sla or .svg or .xmind for source
