Re: Nova Installation and Projects

 

I'm aware that the blueprints are for this, but i find the blueprint
whiteboards very annoying for collaborative discussion.  The idea was to get
everything into the etherpad and move them to blueprints as they solidify.
 That said, there is quite a bit of basic info on there so If you want to
start moving stuff over, feel free.
