Examples, examples, examples, including scala.
The scala-lang site is a bit daunting. I think you'll get more
traction on Lift if you help people to get to grips with scala as well
as lift. I have no idea whether I'm a typical newcomer, but I have

Hi Chas,
Glad to see that there will be some time spent expanding and refining
the Lift documentation, good docs are definitely the sign of a well
run project. I am one of those lurkers you speak about, so I thought
I'd speak up and give my input.
I would like to see explanations on creating

Hello Charles,
Wow! Too lazy to register?! IMO, registration is a one-time event and is
needed to combat spam / bot activity. Rather than having a system where
people complain / suggest alterations, we prefer people to just get on and
change them... Power to the people!

Richard, its a shame you feel like that. Your comments about examples are
noted, however you must bear in mind that both scala and lift are young
(relatively speaking) and a lot of the applications that are out there, are
behind corporate firewalls (including mine) - so don't be fooled into
Thanks, Axel. Will take this under consideration.

to grasp the versions/release/snapshot/pom dependencies.
Various articles use various version numbers when building examples.
I, personally, got lost.
Hello List!
I might as well share my thoughts about docs.
I think as with Scala and Lift you should try to beat the best that is out
there. And from all the user made language/API/framework wikis I have seen
the one from a now pretty unpopular game is by far the best:
Tom,
Thanks for this link! The Second Life wiki is very interesting, and
makes it obvious that one can do a lot with MediaWiki. I'll definitely
spend some time exploring it.

James,
This looks more like about $20, but I'm not complaining. Your thoughts
mirror mine in many ways. #4 is a very good idea. Even just a list of
what is needed. Folks could add to a documentation wishlist, and then
anyone who thought he or she could tackle an item could just do it.
