I looked at the documentation on the web page and eventually figured out how to use the Wiki editor. When someone asks a question about something that is inadequately documented, it would be a good idea to encourage them to improve the documentation. After they have been given an answer, they can be given a link to the Wiki sign in instructions and links to the right document(s) to improve. After they have mastered the subject their question was about they can edit the right spot in the documentation.
The examples don't appear to be editable so that is a problem. Some of them could use some additional commenting. The Quick Start Guide is not available on a web page to be editable. Only part of the full Reference Guide is on a web page. The reference guide is apparently generated from the source files so I'm not sure how you would integrate user added documentation to it. --- Robert Osfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On 8/27/07, Smeenk, R.J.M.
