== Converting MDN Pages to New Tables == | |||
Starting October 2015, we are converting 3-6 pages to include new compatibility tables generated from API-backed data. These will only be visible to select MDN staff and collaborators. The purpose is to: | |||
* Discover bugs in the importer, API, new compatibility tables, and the conversion process, | |||
* Enable MDN staff to make informed decisions on priorities and deliverables, and | |||
* Define and deploy the features needed to open the new tables to beta users. | |||
=== Prerequisites === | |||
The new tables are only available to select MDN staff and collaborators. To see if you are in this group: | |||
# Sign into [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/ MDN] (Anonymous users get the old compatibility tables) | |||
# Go to the [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/background#Browser_compatibility Browser Compatibility section of Web/CSS/background]. If you see the new table (green and red boxes, icon headers), then you are in testing group on MDN. | |||
# Sign into the [https://browsercompat.herokuapp.com BrowserCompat website] | |||
# Go to the [https://browsercompat.herokuapp.com/importer/651 importer page for /Web/CSS/background]. If there is a "Commit" button under actions, you have the ``import-mdn`` permission needed to convert an MDN page. | |||
