sorry for my delay in answering.
Eh... since I just added the pages yesterevening, I don't think it was
much of a delay :-)
Do you have a suggestion for the name of the page? (It doesn't have to be
in the group Devel/).
I'd just call it
http://wiki.lyx.org/DevelDoc/Suggestions
I'd like to put things there and then someone more familiar with
documentation just puts it in when docs are updated.
I'm neither completely against the name nor for it. What would you see it
used for? I think that if you come up with a paragraph describing the
purpose of the page (we'll put that paragraph on the page!), the name will
come as well.
Here's a start:
This page is for users to add suggestions for improving the
documentation.
What more? Some concrete examples perhaps of what/how to use the page?
Also we could use
http://wiki.lyx.org/DevelDoc/FAQUpdates
E.g. I ask something on the list and get a answer that solves the
problem. I'd then just post the solution on the
http://wiki.lyx.org/DevelDoc/UpdatesFAQ
and it could be found and referenced to in the ML and included into the
docs. We could even put this in the signature of the mailing list: Has
your problem been solved? Then consider writing it into:
http://wiki.lyx.org/DevelDoc/FAQUpdates
to help others.
Or can we use http://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ for this purpose?
I like your ideas, but I think using the group
http://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ
is better. There is already 47 pages in that group:
http://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ/FAQ?action=search&q=FAQ%2F+
I wonder if one of those pages might be suitable. There is for instance:
http://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ/Unsorted
and
http://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ/Unsorted1
which are quite big.
A lazy solution is to move everything in FAQ/Unsorted to FAQ/Unsorted2,
and then ask people to place answers in FAQ/Unsorted.
Finally, there's the page FAQ/Unanswered.
It's a bit of a mess really, but I think we should keep the FAQ in the
group FAQ.
/C
PS. I like the idea to have the ML include a link to the FAQ.
