Oh, COME ON. At Wikipedia, we have problems getting contibutors and it
was found out is was all about markup.  I hate Wikipedia table markup.
It's HORRRIBLE. Even more crampy than plain HTML.

And Stepano, I'm not arguing for not using a template engine. I think
I've made that clear on my first post. I'm arguing against having a
special markup for the content and expect that to be simple enough for
mere users to contribute. Success stories, etc.

It isn't. Same with git access or having to install another set of
tools. And especially if they are hooked to python/perl/tcl/lua
whatever, which are preinstalled pretty crappily in many many Linux
distributions, putting in another hurdle for contributing.


Please, let us make this as easy as possible. Web based mostly. If there
is an alternative path to push/pull content, okay. But there should be
one simple, web based path people who just wanna give their 2 cents can use.

Kind regards
