The WPMU functions pages generally have pretty slow development (you've
probably noticed!), I guess because it's a bit of a specialised area, so
it's great to have another keen, young contributor on the scene! There
was a flurry of activity a couple of months ago which I think has died
down a little. Perhaps your enthusiasm will rub off (I'm meaning on me,
as well as anyone else who's feeling guilty about not contributing very
recently, here). And I don't even mean any of that as patronisingly as
it sounds. I guess you're Ctsttom.
I'm a little concerned that the 'Family' section you've added to some of
the functions (I presume the plan is to add it to all the function
documentation given it's in the template you've made) is going to be
difficult to manage and could get pretty unwieldy while not being the
most helpful thing in the world. I know quite a few of the main
functions, and some of the MU functions, include a related functions
section. What's the advantage of splitting related functions up into
these specific family sections rather than the less specific related
functions way?
I notice also you created the WPMU Functions category which is basically
just the same as the WPMU Functions page. While I appreciate it's
helpful to have them all in one place, I'm not keen on the near exact
replication of the two (and, to be honest, in my opinion there aren't
enough MU pages to make the main category so mind-bogglingly complex
that the new category is strictly required). Looking at the main WP
function reference /page/ the added value of that page (over the
Functions /category/) is that it groups the functions further and adds
more narrative. Did you have plans along those lines for the WPMU
Functions page? I'd be interested to hear other people's opinions on
that -- perhaps I'm just too used to the way things are now to see the
benefit here :)
Apologies I've rattled on for so long. As I say: it's great to have
another MU contributor and I just got excited. My estimation is that
we'll get to the end of documenting the WPMU functionality just in time
for the WP3 launch party ;)

Hello
My name is Tom and I just wanted to introduce my self..
I was frustrated with the lack of documentation in the WPMU Functions
section so I decided to work on the section so far I have done a fair
bit and I am continuing to work through all the functions.
I was just wondering if anyone would like to review my changes so far
to ensure I am doing things right and give me a bit of feedback about
what I have been doing.
Kind Regards
Tom Lynch
