Hello! I am in the same boat as Giacomo. I have found some typos and confusing language on the Vala wiki and am wondering how I could be able to update it. I created an account but find the wiki pages immutable. For example, https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/Vala/ValaForJavaProgrammers seems to have been written when Java was version 1.6 and some things have changed, for example lambda support. How would I go about updating this page? Also, I have found a lot of the example code to a bit underwhelming. Lastly, I have found the unit-test-driven learning format to be a very nice way of learning a new language (ex: Kotlin Koans [1]). Would something like this written for Vala be in-scope for the Gnome Vala wiki?
