thanks for your input. I think this is quite valuable. To which degree
do we need to care about taking over stuff from the wiki into our real
docs, if a user without iCLA contributed it?

Let me give an example: If a user writes a short example code snippet
(whatever 3-5 lines) which we would consider valuable to have in the
real docs, would he need to sign an iCLA?

Toby
