Stefan,

This is good to now. Thanks Eric!

by everyone without barriers"

I'm not sure what the best thing is either. I'm sure this is a problem
that many open source projects deal with. I will say wikis tend to be
very scattered. I sometimes feel like I have to really sift through
the wiki on a projet to find material of benefit. Maybe this is the
advantage of having a central portal through which online
documentation travels.

Maybe we have another user and/or programmer that would volunteer to
help us in this regard? I could set up a simple HTML template. Then
the volunteer would only have to add the <p> elements with the text
content.

It sounds like Jon is willing to work with us, though I don't want to
be more of a burden on him than we already are! :]

I will throw my own limited documentation efforts behind whatever
solution the group decides to pursue. I'd like to know what Peppe
thinks.
