I've played around with Josiah's wiki a bit this morning. It's kind of
fun (for a new wiki-er), and looks good. I can definitely see the value
in a wiki for collaborative works and appreciate his making it
available.. Cons: confusing interface (not Josiah's fault, just the
software); having to learn to format docs with WikiRules. Even though
it looks relatively simple, I'm so not inclined at this point to have to
spend more time reading docs to learn to use a system (effectively) when
all we want, all we *need* is a central repository for docs, something
for keeping track of the what and the who.
Maybe we're missing something obvious here. What about using a
customized WP install for this? WP has built in: user permissions,
online editing capabilities, commenting, really...everything we need.
Maybe it could be integrated into the wp.org site, making updates to the
'official' docs sections easy and painless! What do y'all think about
something like this?
