I am learning about SCM - I have looked at the usual places like wiki and google. But Google Code University gives a funny description of SCM: Google Code University
It is completely void of any mention of build tools such as ANT which I thought were a key factor in SCM, has Google got it wrong?

Well, wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_configuration_management says this
In software engineering, software configuration management (SCM) is the task of tracking and controlling changes in the software. Configuration management practices include revision control and the establishment of baselines.
So that includes tools like SVN, not necessarily ANT

Would using GitHub as a work experience portfolio, including personal projects in various languages/frameworks, be a good practice when seeking employment?
Yes. You'll want to target the specific companies you are applying to, as well. For example, does the company you are targeting value, use, or promote open source projects? Then find some contributions you can make, especially if that company has their own open source projects on GitHub.com.
Definitely host your own projects with a very clear README.md that explains the purpose of the project, anything that showcases design decisions you made, and clear instructions on how to launch/run your project.
No, Since github functions as a site where you host your codes, employers won't have time to access and examine each of your codes.
Yes,
Your future employer may not check out your code, but it will prove that development is your hobby and not only your job.
Put your github repo link in your resume

Are there any open source projects any of you would recommend to follow or contribute toward, including those already documented among the zf contributors, to add zend framework scaffolding of crud functionality for rapid development as found in most competitors frameworks?
As a contributor of not only the language and framework, but also as a user of zf on a daily basis, I know this is a topic of interest and I feel professional developers like you would find here would have something to contribute toward my question and finding a library that is underway that can be contributed to.
Still pointing out one Repo that generates a new module with folder structure, config and module class
Inforbiro / ZF2-Code-Generator
While personally i feel this to be more troublesome than doing it by hand, it's a first step only. Though it appears development already has stopped, for now.
If ever (and i'm pretty sure) there will be a ZF2-Tool, you'll find it at the zf-commons repository
ZF-Commons
Sorry, apparently this is not an appropriate question to ask, i've learned, at stackoverflow. Didn't realize this kind of question wasn't allowed since it doesn't have code I guess.

Github equivalent to Launchpad "Questions & Answers" [closed]

For Launchpad projects, it is possible to offer community support thanks to the Questions & Answers. How can I enable similar functionality for my Github project? Is there something already offered by Github, or some other site? The purpose is to help with for example software installation.
I believe there's nothing like that on GitHub. However, exploiting available tools, I would use the project wiki to build a knowledge base about your software, and the issue tracker (perhaps with some kind of "documentation" category/label) as a mean to reproduce Q&A threads, which ideally should result in a wiki page (that you'll need to put together yourself) with some kind of definitive answer to the specific question.
There is no Q&A functionality in Github. Q&As and forums can, however, be created at other sites, for example googlegroups.

I am looking for a a free template or tool to help creating an online user's guide (manual) for a web-based system. I have been searching on the web for hours and just found some expensive commercial solutions with too many functionalities.
I am trying to create something like http://help.eclipse.org/helios/index.jsp. Just checked that eclipse has one but seems that can be used just on eclipse RCP projects.
Do you know any free tool or template for this task? I would really appreciate any help.
Many thanks,
Thiago
Docbook good but there's a learning curve...
Why not use an open source wiki? Or something like Doxygen will auto-generate help like documentation from source code.

There are many free online Source Control available but I would like to know your experience on it, if any, and which is the best one?
Me and my friend are starting a small test project and would like some really good online source control.
We will be developing ASP.Net app.
If you're just after a hosted source code repository:
Github
Bitbucket
If you need issue tracking, file releases, wikis, mailing lists, etc:
Sourceforge
Google Code Hosting
I've got one project at Sourceforge, and I find the amenities quite nice. You might find this comparison handy.
I'm using Unfuddle for some personal stuff to avoid issues with corporate firewalls.
You can commit over http with them.
Otherwise, use Github as already suggested.
