Debatable, I know many (myself for one) who've never needed to use one yet. On the other hand, if it would be a better information outlet than the SF forums and jGuru FAQ (and more frequently visited/maintained by the developers), then why not. > The idea is to remove all documentation from CVS, and put it in the wiki > (look at Hibernate website). Which documentation are you talking about? The stuff that's included in the distribution? If so, would this then be maintained in the wiki instead in future? How will the build scripts include the docs in the dist zip if they're not in the source? We need to have an offline copy of the docs in there, not everyone is online all the time they're coding with xdoclet. And what happens when the wiki docs are updated? How will they be versioned? At present, people can fetch an old version of the source from CVS based on its tag, build it themselves, and have a complete set of documentation with it. How would they do that if the docs are only on the wiki and are no longer relevant because they're talking about a newer version of the code? > We would appreciate your experience and input on: > > 1. which wiki to use ( http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?WikiEngines ), currently under > consideration are moinmoin and coWiki > 2. where to host this wiki I wouldn't have the faintest clue since, as I said, I've never needed to use any of them. You've yet to convince me of the need, though. What's wrong with where the docs are now?
