Leaving aside the issue of what the best platform for sharing the info might be. If nobody knows it's there, the kick-assingest wiki server the world has or will ever see is not going to address my suggestion in the slightest.
Well, to be fair, I thought I was trying to address that by suggesting that there should be a "top level doc project" - individual projects could point up to it just as easily as it could point down to them, but it would be a clear "docs portal" for everyone. I know not everyone agrees with this assertion, but I think all the projects on macosforge have more knowledge collectively in common than they think. I then look laterally to the success of projects like wikipedia, which has a knowledge base and contributing community far more vast by comparison, and cannot help but think "hmmm.."
Just to refresh, there needs to be a link from the main MacPorts documentation site to the how-to's. As a first step, it's awesome.
No disagreement at all. Links are cheap, people! Use them! - Jordan
