My fear with having that piece of documentation in a wiki is that we won't be able to deal with people asking for comments/clarification or just discussing things about certain parts. This means that there would be absolutely no moderation at all, and lots of people will scrawl their personal opinions directly in the Guide. The only way of holding the quality of the Guides is by paying attention to Wiki notifications. Perhaps its just me, but I personally tend to ignore these notifications. If we have nobody to actively watch for changes contributors have done, moderate, correct and discuss them with them, I forsee the quality of the guide will decrease. If there was a group which would do that, it would work. However, my experience of the available manpower among us MOTUs tought me something else in the past :( I think we can agree to disagree here. May I propose to have a vote in launchpad for that? -- Gruesse/greetings, Reinhard Tartler, KeyID 945348A4
