I don't quite understand.
You subscribe to this very informative list. How much are YOU paying
the people who are letting their lights shine in this list? How much
are they demanding?
As I see this, Wiki is based on the same generic principal: the inner
need to help, the inner need to let your light shine, or (probably
most common) a combination of both. Maybe also (as I have experienced)
you learn by sharing, because then you have to formulate what you
think you know. Which I see as a good thing.
So, FrameUsers, Wiki and Open Source is not such a bad thing, I guess.
For that matter, the Internet was really created this way, by sharing
information. And FramaMaker would be dead without it.

I've been asked before what I thought about wikis in a software
documentation environment. I suspect that the only reason
Anarchipedia works at all is because there exists a large population
of educated types who are willing to contribute and who are able to
do so because they are writing their entries on someone else's
nickel. Probably university souls who would otherwise be preparing
lectures or grading some of the few papers that students still claim
to write. Or maybe they are just avoiding their tedious chores.
I'm dubious that folks in most development environments have the
leisure to dawdle around in a wiki when they have their own workloads
to get through. Or am I misunderstanding the charm of a wiki? It
sounds like a mechanism to convince other people to do my work.

There is something fascinating about science.
One gets such wholesale returns of conjecture
out of such a trifling investment of fact. - Twain
