TBH, I don't think we _need_ to move anytime soon. I'm probably the main person looking after the wiki, and it works relatively well. While we didn't get as many contributions from community as I would like, that part is working too.

So there's no burning need to do it, I just thought it's good to be aware that STW is a dead end.

For the time being I think we're good to stick to what we have, especially that I do agree that doco migration is a big undertaking, which most likely can't be automated and incentive to do it in the first place is low.

Agreed.

As a public disclosure, my interest in OSS is nearly zero. By
principle I dont want to invest any of my time in what's not code. I
have no interest in people using my stuff, and could as well make
MR3/4 a private repos. Unless there's corporate interest in buying my
time to add documentation, sample and whatnot, I dont see myself doing
it...

After seeing Linus talks, I understand this is not an uncommon
position to take..

Sorry if it sounds harsh, it's just the sad realization that OSS wont
pay my bills, wont pay for my retirement and won't even afford me some
desert after dinner.

But, assuming that we'll replace screwturn wiki, who'll move the
content? If we use the website move as baseline, will take more than a
year to move the content from media wiki to a new plataform...

Still leaves the question of what shall we do next?
I see that mozilla is successful in using media wiki. I'd be +1 to
just use Wordpress..
thoughts?

Low friction is also a huge benefit.

I tend to agree that all existing ones I've used more or less suck.

I hate wikis in general. Not only for our usage, but for my company
and everything I had to use. And the reason is the entropy. It quickly
becomes a dumping ground of info without structure. You'd have to
actually have someone making sure things are structure, links are
created to enable some level of navigation.. it's hell.

Confluence is the best in this space, but it still sucks. I guess we
need to weight the trade off of less structure/ ease of content
management (since apparently this is the only benefit).

Just a note for you guys, the ScrewTurnWiki (which we use for Castle
documentation) is being discontinued

http://blog.screwturn.eu/2012/06/05/goodbye-world/

While it doesn't impact us in any meaningful way short term, I'm open
for
suggestions as to what's next for our documentation.
