I think that could be useful. Alternatively, we could educate people about chicken-install -r I'm a little worried that the egg index would become too complex or overwhelming for first-time users though. > 2) For each egg, a link to > "http://wiki.call-cc.org/eggref/4/<EGG>/discussion" or some such, to > encourage user feedback, feature requests, etc. That seems like a good idea, but we've had discussion pages for the entire duration of our svnwiki use, and to my knowledge nobody ever used them. Because of that I didn't build discussion pages into qwiki, since it would be just another unused feature I'd have to maintain. > Where's the tool that generates this page live, anyway? I'd guess somewhere under chicken-eggs/maintenance, but I can't find it.
