I'll respond to a few of these with my understanding.

I think there is room for a separation, and I would want to know what
I was targeting if I was writing a page.

Advanced users (as defined by mpb earlier) don't care how to commit
patches to the scripts cvs. Devs don't need to know about
PrepareProgram -t (because they already do). Remember, "advanced
users" just means people who are comfortable with Gobo, and can write
a few Recipes or submit a bug report.

Sounds like the wiki will just provide information on *how* to do
these things. e.g. "If you encounter a bug, please go to
bugs.gobolinux.org and fill out a report. Don't forget to include
which version of Scripts you have." etc. From mpb's reply to Carlo:
"The Wiki doesn't have to do these functions, it merely has to tell
advancesd users where and how to do them."

There should definitely be a roadmap targeted at potential and new
users, to help them get excited about what's coming, and realize that
Gobo is headed on a good path with active development. If the devs
find it useful to have a separate roadmap, one of them will make one
:). The reason it's in community is because that's the category that
new and potential users will be hanging around in.

The person updating it must manually put in the date they made an
update (unless Nick can work some template black magic :) ). However,
this is only supposed to apply to a major check/update by an
experienced member of the WikiTeam, so it seems having a manual tag is
the only way to distinguish it from a random edit anyway.

The process of viewing a list of all the "last updated Mar '07" pages
is automatic once the tags are in place.
