Hi Robert,
For documentation it sounds great. May I suggest that the 'Unofficial DynAPI
Helpsheet' be the first to be ported onto such a system. I've had alook at
wiki-wiki.com and it looks straight forward enough.Perhaps then the
'helpsheet' could be something of a testrun. The advantages seem obvious,
hopefully eventually all relevant Q and A's would end up there and would
save us all and new users a lot off time searching the list archives.
Blessings, Darryl.
Any help getting this started, please let me know.

I was thinking more about the documentation, no so much the matrix.
Its actually very easy to maintain since anyone can maintain it at any
time. The way our docs are now only a few people can change it and
rarely do because they don't have the time or patience. It does
require a level of trust, but it uses mysql and you can easily revert
to changes if people screw with it.
I've been following webmacro.org and since showing of the wiki docs,
they had such a positive response that they turned the whole site into
a wiki site. So, I think it could be of good use to us for those who are
requesting better documentation (there are plenty of them, including
me).
