Thanks for doing the experimentation. Could you try and put together a test tutorial on any subject that you feel able, iOS for instance. Your experience with this will give us an idea of how they might look and how quickly/easily they can be put together. It might also be useful to attempt to copy the contents over as a straight joomla article to see how easily one can do the equivalent in joomla. > So is the plan to flesh out what you have on Joomla site (downloads, about, > screen shots, pr etc), then move everything in the documentation section of > the current site over to mediawiki? This has been my initial plan of action. However, I am starting to wonder if the ability of Joomla to handle creation and editing of content within a browser is not so different to that of a wiki so it might be possible to do everything within Joomla rather than have a wiki and a main website. A wiki does have it's own advantages though so I'm torn. For the average end use they just want easy and quick access to information, downloads and support, whether it's in a wiki or not makes no difference. For those populating the website(s) it's a different set of needs. This initial experimentation stage is really about trying to flesh out what is possible and what might work well for us. I don't know the answers until we've done the leg work. I'd like to get a firm direction within the next week as we really need to start pulling across content and building the new website.
