Most developers are bad in writing documentation with either system. The only thing the current system brought, were inconsistencies. Look at the site. It's ugly, it's inconsistent, there are a lot of different styles on every corner. Actually, I don't think, that it's going to be worse if we do anything. Said that; of course we'll try to keep the process as close as possible to the current one, it's of our all interest ;-). But if we can make things better, we *need* to change stuff. Which is a good thing [TM], simply because the current site is *really* ancient. nd -- "Das Verhalten von Gates hatte mir bewiesen, dass ich auf ihn und seine beiden Gef�hrten nicht zu z�hlen brauchte" -- Karl May, "Winnetou III" Im Westen was neues: <http://pub.perlig.de/books.html#apache2>
