Yeah. A wiki isn't the best way, but better than nothing. Probably writing a documentation based on the XML Guide format Gentoo is using is a good start. > As for API docs, there are none at present; and there are no plans > for any stable docs, IIRC. > > As for a developer website, what kinds of information are you looking > for? All information I want is on the page [1], but the mentioned API documentation would help other people to find easy access to portage-development. This is the only improvement a "new" portage site needs in my opinion, since writing something like this needs a good knowledge of Python, easily asking someone to volunteer for it isn't good. :) Chris [1] http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/portage/index.xml
