Admin Area

Links to detailed policies, procedures and information specific to HCoop. The resources here should allow HCoop admin team members to share information about every part of the complete system, and to allow easier training of future team members.

To be an admin

Sections you should read if you are interested in being an admin.

Admins: it is recommended that you watch the changes RSS feed to keep informed of what everyone is up to. Then, please document all of your work on here somewhere - that way we will not only have a record, but everyone gets notified about what is going on. Alternatively, you can create a wiki account and subscribe to the page regex .* (all pages).
