Collaboratively written documentation

On: Deb Richardson Answers Open Source Doc Questions

After building the help browser, the next step would be to build an easy-to-use integrated authoring system. That's a bit more challenging, of course, but not unrealistically so. The easier it is for people to write documentation, the more documentation is likely to get written.

This is a great idea, and well-implemented, I believe it can become a very useful tool for writing the doc.

We can consider it as a kind of "Content Management System". Any author (and it should be easy to be one) can come and edit a doc (of course, there is versionning) or start a new one and these can be review by all or specific people (editors...). After some favorable judging (to be defined), the doc can be part of the public doc release and so on.

At a more basic level, this kind of thing has been done a thousand times on the web (there is even a problem set part of web development course asking to implement just that cf. http://namin.arsdigita.org/dev/p sets/ps3/home.html) This is really just an outline of what a content management system should be.

By keeping everything nicely in a database, we can generate all the interfaces (XML, HTML, etc.) from a single format.

I'll try to work on this. If anybody wants to join...

Since the price is the same, I would go for Window

On: Dell to sell laptops with Linux preinstalled

Since its the same price, I don't see why one would go for Linux. I would go for Windows and then partition the drive for Linux.
