Hi Betrand,
I think the question who can edit the wiki is a more general one and
actually I like it the way Cocoon handles it. The Cocoon MoinMoin Wiki
has no access control whatsoever and this means that the barrier for
contribution is much lower than here in Sling.
I know that the Sling website is built from the wiki, so this is a
sensible issue, perhaps we could have something like a scratchpad wiki
space that is completely open and keep access to the main wiki tightly
limited to committers.
As much as a like to write about Sling in my blog, some pieces should
go to the Wiki, for others to check and refine if things change.
regards,
Lars

I'm +1 on giving write access to our wiki to people who are active in
the Sling community, after a committer's vote, and once these people
have a CLA on file with the ASF [1] (As a Cocoon committer, Lars does
have one).
That access would be subject to the usual rules for committing code:
people have to revert their changes if a committer opposes them (with
justification), and for "big changes" we'd like people to ask or hold
a vote first.
There's no official concept of "wiki committers" at the ASF yet, so we
might want to limit this "experiment" to the Sling incubation period.

there's so much happening here ;-)
