Yeah, more I think about it probably needs to come from Software
Manufacturing either as a url or as member in .DOCLIB. Each group
would be responsible for their FAQ and Software Manufacturing would
assimilate into IBM speak for distribution.
If there was a wiki, we'd end up with everything written by the
most persistant posters. Not necessarily the most knowlegable.
And the history would likely get rather ugly.
Haven't the discussion gone away from the topic ?
FAQ is not official documentation and need not to be 100,00% accurate.
It can contains simplification, etc. Otherwise there will be very few
entries - the rest will be inaccurate, incomplete or nobody will do it.
The tool and organization are not so relevant, usually FAQ is simple web
page maintained by single person or few persons. Such person puts new
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s. However it can be wiki-like mechanism as well.
IMHO the most important issue is nobody will put new questions and
answers. It will be empty. ...and then it will be accurate <vbg>
The same with engine: wiki has disadvantages, simple webpage has
disadvantages, but it's still better than NOTHING. This is what we have now.
