I'd have to suggest though that it's not as intuitive as it once was. Even a search on "documentation" returns no results (for me, anyway).
Can there not be a documentation panel to get quick access to each product's documentation? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Vincent Massol Sent: 19 December 2007 12:44 To: XWiki Users Subject: Re: [xwiki-users] Documentation?

Well that's not fully true. You can't compare with before since before we were only documenting one product and now we're documenting the platform and all the products... > I remember the previous one were the first you found were all the > features that XWiki has.

Past users of xwiki.org should go to the http://enterprise.xwiki.org since the previous version was only documenting that. Then you should be able to find all you had before. Back to your feature-oriented documentation idea. Do you have any example of web site in mind that do this? (I mean websites with more than one product). Or any idea how to implement this? OTOH all the sites I know that have more than one product do it the way we do it on xwiki.org: - http://apache.org, http://jakarta.apache.org - http://hibernate.org - http://jboss.org - etc We could show all the platform features on the main page since all products share these but I don't think that would be a good idea since we would then not be able to present the different products (not enough space). I guess what I'm trying to understand right now is why is it difficult to pick the product for which to read documentation about. Would you have any insight into this?
