Anthony, thank you for pointing me to web2pyslices, I just registered there. 
I knew it before and it helped me out a couple of times. But it is not 
exactly a wiki or? My point is that I see web2py and the web2py-users 
gaining more momentum. Groups traffic increases and the rather unorganized 
information there with some really informative threads if you know what to 
search for. 

I think it would be useful to have a wiki that is organized similar to the 
web2py book and also tightly linked with it and with the web2py-users group. 
The idea occurred to me when I saw the recent thread where pbreit posted his 
excellent fabfile example. This example got me going with fabric and I 
immediately downloaded it to my computer. However it would be great to a 
have a wiki with e.g. a deployment section in the same fashion of the book 
where I could just insert a link to pbreit's post and maybe even my own 
adapted fabfile. 

Basically its just about organizing the information a little bit better and 
make it more accessible to beginners. And since I think writing a good wiki 
engine is almost as difficult as writing a good web application framework 
I'd suggest to go with one of the good systems that are already there like 
moinmoin or wikimedia or a more minimalistic one. I believe it would benefit 
web2py and I would like to contribute. Presumably a wiki could fill the gap 
between the group which is quick and pretty unorganized and the book which 
is great but cannot be up to date always in every aspect of development with 
web2py.
