Yes.  It is not a wiki until you have urls that reflect the page
title, easy linking from one wiki entry to another, etc.  These are
fundamental wiki features and you won't get any significant content
until people can use it easily.  A wiki comes with some high
expectation of its features, and ours does not measure up.

You have made my point for me.  There will ALWAYS be technical issues
that need improvement.  That is axiomatic for any living open-source
project.  What we lack now is an infrastructure and commitment to
documenting the software in step with its changes.  Can you show me a
truly successful, long-term OS project that does not make
documentation a top priority?

Your metric is flawed.  All you can say for certain is that a growing
number of people were interested in web2py at some point in time.  You
cannot tell how many have left in frustration and now use other
platforms.

Warm regards,
