There have been a nice gentoo SoC project, which is a ajax xml editor
for gentoo's specific xml doc syntax.
The result is amazing (still has some bugs however..). Read all in his
blog entry: http://summerofcode.wordpress.com/2006/09/29/ beacon-02/
on-line demo: http://guidexml.soc.gentoo.org/guidexml/editor/
Next year we can propose a project for SoC to adapt this to livedocs :)
Looks promising! Imagine, while viewing the manual you spot a place that
should be modified... so you click the edit button in your browser, edit
the text, submit, then reload the page seeing the modification show up
immediately. Is this simply a fantasy or will it be reality? Only time
will tell! :-)
thats exactly my dream :) I would go even further: allow everyone to make
changes and send the patches automatically to a queue. To commit a patch we
would only need to click on a accept button.
