I think that's a good idea. People can propose questions to a coordinator, and a volunteer can answer the question, including code samples. Of course, we could probably also harvest a bunch of the most frequently asked questions from the mailing list to start with. I agree that an answer should, whenever possible, be a complete working example. (Preferably one that is as small as possible while still completely answering the question). > and up to 1001 questions or more, with full answers, and notes. > with sections for the totally beginners. I would suggest a from-the-ground-up tutorial. The documentation doesn't provide much help there. When I was first learning, I had to spend hours looking through the source code and researching on MSDN to figure out how things work. (I have not looked at the current wiki - perhaps it has already addressed this concern.) Also, since wiki-spam has apparently been a problem in the past, I would recommend requiring registration to edit the wiki. I know that some wikis provide that option, although I don't know whether MediaWiki does so, since it was designed for the anybody-can-edit approach of Wikipedia. If we do require registration to edit the wiki, we'll need a question submission form for those without editor rights. Anyway, I am willing to provide some answers. I am a student with a heavy schedule this semester, but I'll do what I can. Exams will be in mid-January, and after that the next semester is supposed to be lighter on classes (although I'll have a major project I'll be working on from home). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
