So what is so wrong with the WW2 docs?  I was able to build the Wafer
Weblog with it.  While I was actively working on the Expresso framework
we got hammered by user for the same reason, they said our documentation
sucked.  Problem was just throwing more "documentation" at the website
wasn't the solution because then you ended up with all of these poor
flowing documents.  It is very hard to write good documentation!! After
having worked with many frameworks myself I feel that the best thing
that could be done to help out newbies is one, have good javadoc.  That
is the easiest because the issue of "flowing" is not an issue.  The
second would be to have a good example.  When I was working with the
Maverick framework I used their friendbook example as about as much as
their API's.  So the webwork team could go off and create an example
(great!) or you could steal one that already exist from someone else
(hint Wafer).

Subject: [OS-webwork] docs are important

All,

Ouch:
http://www.depeupleur.com/blog/TT_blog/archives/000019.html

We got zinged there -- Jason, thanks for the good followup. Let's use
this as 
impetus to improve the docs!

I recently started working on the WW2 docs and I'd be happy to help out
with 
XWork if someone could give me cvs commit & Jira access to that proj.

Anyone interested in taking this over?

Cheers,
