Here is some fire for the thread David:
Dave Whitten (thanks David!) has been working on setting up a wiki linked to the WorldVistA sourceforge code repository. It has been up and running for a while in test mode. It is clearly a good time to enlist more hands to help with its birth. From a community perspective It would make the most sense to "integrate" the documentation with the code....so suggestions and volunteers to modify the sourceforge pages to provide "one stop shopping" will be most welcome. The worldvista.org and hardhats.org sites can then be updated with the appropriate links
We can start by adding Kevin's work to improve the installation documentation.....Nancy you've got some stuff that's in draft I think that could be added too.
At this point anyone can create an account and there are no restrictions on editing....if this proves to be too liberal we can change the permissions etc. The URL....which will be simplified is:
http://openforum.worldvista.org/~forum/index.php?title=Main_Page
It would be ideal if two people would volunteer to coordinate and manage the documentation wiki...and here is a challenge....it would be great to have at least the current body of documentation loaded into the Wiki in time for the Boston meeting.
Cheers,
Joseph

The use of a Wiki has come up A LOT (a large part by Kevin and me).
So... can we fire this thread up and get some action items?
As I've stated before - I can offer up my services for setup and hosting but we reached a point where the group agreed that "HardHats would be the best medium". If we stay true to that statement, can we get an ETA?
If not, could I be of any help?

Hello,
I have been following the list over the past month or so. Things seem
to be heating up over the past week and I feel I know enough about the group
and its projects now to contribute.
I have installed Vista on my Internet exposed Linux server and have
worked through about 80% of the installation process.
My background is somewhat unique in that I am a chiropractor on staff in
a FQHC in a small rural city in Northern California, management is very interested in what Vista can do. I am also a Linux professional and
teach all Linux System Administration courses at the local college. Not being
a programmer by training I can hack myself out of a jam in most
interpreted programming languages.
I am still trying to figure out all the different facets and
organizations of this project and how they all fit together....
One question I do have.
Is there a wiki or collaborative documentation project for Vista?
As I was working through the Installation manual I noted some
inconsistencies, order and or relevance issues in some of the steps. It might be helpful
to start such a resource. Mailing lists are great, but you have to keep up
and reference the pearls of wisdom as you see them.
