I think it takes about 4 days before one can start writing pages to a wikibook. In my opinion, having a crowdsourced book out there is one better way of learning how to use Kannel (and user lists such as stackoverflow are best for questions). There are times integrations with application platforms becomes hard with Kannel (especially if you just read their documentation)... some budding programmers want to see something actionable. Later, we can have links to example applications (built off any imaginable platform: django, rails, and PHP, and others of course) --> this can be hosted on github (ref links to github will be stored in the wikibooks).
