One does not need a wiki for that. Just give everyone SVN access (or whatever revision control system is in use). A wiki means that people are forced to do text work inside of a web browser. That's not what web browsers were designed for. I want to use *real* text editors and not that toy "editor" which is offered by current web browsers, and which has virtually no editing capabilities and where I will lose my work whenever the browser crashes or the browser window is closed by accident. I know that there exists mozex and alike, but these are nothing more than workarounds that will get in the way of productivity sooner or later. > A wiki with a comments > system would seem to me to be the most useful way to go. A wiki as an *additional* place for users to make comments, exchange suggestions, etc. might in fact be helpfull.
