Re: Wiki-fying docs
I think I have to agree with Hiten. I like the collaborative nature
of Wiki and I could see us generating a Wiki compatible set of
documents for the purpose of public comment, and use that to generate
patches back into the official document format. But I don't think we
can use Wiki as a basis for the documentation... it doesn't have a
formal enough infrastructure to serve as a good basis.
If someone wants to write a Wiki-generator from the documentation and
a patch generator to deal with changes (not for the purpose of
attempting to auto-patch back into the original infrastructure, since
that would be impossible, but for review and reintegration purposes)...
that would be pretty cool.
