I would rather give everyone svn write access. Synchronizing
on the same code base is far simpler (and less labour intensive)
than syncing using some kind of wiki.
The wiki approach works only well if people work on well seperated
taks, with clear interfaces. But we have to design a driver
from the ground up.


The wiki page could be a gathering place for documentation. eg:
1. A page to summarize what they are doing - to let others see how
they can contribute or help out or work on bugs. Once we start
offering the boards, these ones will also want to encourage bug fixes
and review submitted code.
2. until we get some bug system worked out, a place to note known issues.
3a. A place where different ones could add info/instructions for how
to compile that driver for their  distro
3b. link to compiled drivers for those willing to test the drivers on
different systems.
