Don't just "wait" - try something. The test forum that got set up is *something*. Not much is happenning there, and I want to play with it a bit more over the next couple of days. (The color scheme is a bit weird, but that's not important right now.) What I'm trying to say is...if you want to start a documentation project - just do it. OpenIndiana in a community project and so there are no "decision makers". In a way, everyone is a decision maker. So, if you want to do documentation, start collecting it. There's a lot out there. What wiki software ends up being used for it (if any) is not really relevant to the project start. Jeff. -- FORTUNE PROVIDES QUESTIONS FOR THE GREAT ANSWERS: #19 A: To be or not to be.
