I suggest that we have quality control on the information. Such as some standards to follow. Not preventive on the information side, only on presentation on information.
IMHO, quality matters when it came to attracting audience. Users will have trouble in digesting information if it is in a shape of mess. And one more, is about abstraction. We should prepare categories that makes sense, and ask contributors to hook their documentation in the right categories. Search and navigation should be more easier this way. I hope that this will not be centralized in terms of who can contribute. But we have to have some trusted party to oversee the quality of the article presentation. Just my 1 cent~ p/s: can we have a 'bottom' posting style on this mailing list instead of 'top' posting?
