Many thanks to the team that made this possible,
  Specially to those who are driving it, as well as those making their 
contributions "quietly".


I am "only" a user and very much appreciate all the efforts done by you guys in 
your spare time; in a very professional and timely manner.


regards,

Andre

I would like to do a collaborative edited document, preferably online. Anyone 
want to suggest any special technology. Choices are:

* Existing format = tex  and use GIT to edit it
* Wiki pages
* Google Docs
* Other ?

I know John will frown at me for saying this, but I think editing it with Tex 
is great for techies, but I would like to see manual contributors who are in 
the user space as well as the dev space, and an online edited system will 
remove all barriers to entry.

Thoughts?

Yes I am putting this to the User team rather than Dev, as I think there is 
many users could contribute to the manual.

BTW. You already have access to editing the wiki, so if there is any FAQ, Data 
file questions/answers, preferred setup, ability to share config files etc, you 
can already do it on the wiki.
