I understood it as the wiki being an all-purposes wiki, meaning use= rs could (would and should) create articles on how to get some application = running or how to get some setting working, and the developers will have th= eir own "section", so to speak, where they can collaborate on various proje= cts where a wiki would be an asset. It seems to me from the discussion here on the list that it is to centraliz= e documentation (- the official docs), so that gentoo can point to the wiki= and say "If it's not in our docs, maybe it's in the wiki". I may have mistaken the actual purpose of the wiki, but then by all means, = correct me :-) --=20 Zeerak Waseem --oyUTqETQ0mS9luUI Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.14 (GNU/Linux) iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJLv2LoAAoJEBS1NNgpgWuWHbcIAJdz8m06ixxSjRPSJ5JNK5k1 SrYqoy9cK0kQCs6mfc8/dOkU86P3gApRx2/WssIB6KJnCVANVkEdtVJl6EQJBuM/ hzeg04siQ4vG9lLY3XKubLmrgkZEcPhZLvlTLtnv/q9Nrwj7MCdziZRbzBpmA6R+ ZqEwoHrWaLy+mTYpmYCKTD9Dgifj0eD7QmTN1mYent3Dc9mZuseRRuxuM73STn7j raiW3cyRD6hA5chPrZUQfG6vjuxPUEsGXuwoweWoIwT7Y3mtchpjIGzKE8qdxSCx 3Je/yobzB2+/X/Y1ymGyAYqa4A/Tc4EhzeaKNeO0Z6nAU+IFeWWa7lm5ghKEos0= =5OwC -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --oyUTqETQ0mS9luUI--
