Hello, I am currently buried in another book project which has a few chapters denoted to using xindice. I might be interested in ( barring publisher approval )of donating some documentation to the effort, any reason why xindice doesn't have a wiki ?
The FAQ is a bit stale, a wiki would allow for more tactical info to flow to the developer; just some anecdotal evidence based on 10 developers who I use as a technical peer group on the book. - 9 out of 10 developers spent more then 2 hours finding out that the latest version of xindice commandline tool is included in the /src download only. I think this information is buried somewhere in the doc - 10 out of 10 developers indicated that the xindice with the webdav extension was immediately more useful just by the fact of having a usable web interface, on average toke a couple of days for them to discover the 3rd party xincon based implementation. Yes a simple search of mail list for webdav would have revealed this, though sometimes programmers don't know 'what' they are looking for...they just want some sort of browser interface - 7 out of 10 asked about schema validation I am happy to host such a wiki, on my own systems. Cheers, Jim Fuller
