Another thing with the TinyOS wiki is about its content management, I
strongly recommend to separate it into sections (i.e.: TinyOS version
1.x, 2.x and future beta x.x :-) and related topic).
I guess many people who use Ubuntu will agree that
http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy wiki is somehow useful because
you can find what you are after in a clear and relatively short
description, rather than going through the entire page of documentation
similar to TEP-XXX.
Also, is it possible to divide the mailing list according to the version
of TinyOS? It is a bit annoying that you have to look into which version
people is using when you try to answer people's questions or search for
an answer.
I guess this will be a good starting point to make this mailing list to
be more effective.

The TinyOS gentoo-wiki is a valuable resource for installing TinyOS on

yes, you're right - I just sent it as an example... we shouldn't post
non-gentoo information on the gentoo wiki..
would be, where would we start a general-purpose TinyOS wiki? How about
a wikibook http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Main_Page ?
or be hosted on tinyos.net servers?
Matt Welsh and I have been talking about doing exactly that. He's set up
an initial page, which people are welcome to use:
http://www.eecs.harvard.edu/~mdw/tinyosdocs/index.php/Main_Page
He's currently in Ecuador deploying a network; the hope was to start to
get things rolling when he returns.
Our goal was that the wiki would be hosted at Harvard. The tinyos.net
site is hosted by Berkeley, and the Debian packages are hosted by
Stanford, so we thought that further distributing the administration
would make it easier for new resources to join and also make it clear
that it's a group effort.
