Osamu Aoki edits the Debian Reference etc. This is another possible
model for Doug's ideas. There are many contributors but the editor
produces the final document.
A mixed system might work well. Individuals produce small articles on
specific topics. An editor uses these as source material for a major
article. The major article would then have a consistent flavour, but
contributors still retain "ownership" of their own artcles. Contributors
would be able to continue to maintain and develop their own articles.
This would help in process of revising the major document.
Chris,
If we were to have a page clearly labled as GPL, would you be able to
spit out an html of a wiki page any beter than we could pull off with a
browser?
I'm not quite sure what you mean. The wiki page is already HTML - the
source code is the wikitext. If you use DocBook, the web page is HTML
and the source code is the SGML/XML.
Here is a GPL wiki page (the licence notice is in an appendix):
http://newbiedoc.berlios.de/wiki/Beginner%27s_guide_to_Vi_Improved_%28Vim%29
Here is a dual-licenced wiki page (the licence notices are at the top):
http://newbiedoc.berlios.de/wiki/Aptitude_-_using_together_with_Synaptic_and_Apt-get
They are just web pages. You can view them in a browser, print them,
download them with wget, etc. Note that if you do the latter two, a
different CSS is involved so you see only the plain article and none of
the website stuff. Thoughtful design by Mediawiki eh?
