Hi Linus, this is really cool! For me it is much more likely that I contribute to the developers wiki than to the cookbook, because most of the time I'm working on computers that have a web browser but no subversion client (and a checked out ArgoUML copy). A similar situation with the mailing list: I have not always access to the registered email account, so I'll try the web version (forum), if possible.
