So would I. The wiki is only temporary... See my comments below.

That's the ultimate goal. However, I don't have a broad view of the doc
system. Right now the page is a only a bunch of tips and tricks gathered on
irc and this very mailing list. It is not at all in a stable state and I don't
feel expert enough to write such a text in the guide, not speaking about my
bad English. In particular, I'd like some expert of the build system and
ReST/sphinx to check that the tips I give are correct. Moreover, aside for the
tricks in my opinion the most important thing on the page are link to short
and extended description on the format that I don't want to (even can't ?)
copy in the Devel Guide.

I was hoping that starting the wiki page, I could get some help on expanding
it, or at least get some re-reader. I have chosen the wiki as a communication
mean to build such a doc because anyone can edit and improve it. But it seems
that as a consequence no-one does :) The trac / patch system seems not to be
interactive enough... Any suggestion ? 

Cheers,

Florent
