But wrong, hmmm, no. Open source culture is all about diversity. And it needs to be dealt with. Of course, one person prefers to edit docbook, the other prefers wiki. One considers xml as binary data, the other thinks xml is not geeky enough, etc... But what really matters is, how can we improve the integration of all those aspects. Like i said in a different mail, it is not about either using one or the other, but maybe trying to improve the collaboration or even merge of the existing solutions. I prefer "Scrubs" over "Friends", but that doesn't make me an enemy of the "Friends" episodes. The webteam tries to integrate a better water carrier job since quite some time now, with not that much success overall. And believe me, we are open to anything. Stating wiki markup is not what i like is not helpful. Stating what you would need is more helpful. The markup is not a question, as i assume any dev should easily be able to adapt.
