[Bf-docboard] Wiki

[Stefano Selleri]

Well,

after long discussions it seems that switching to MediaWiki is the more advantageous option. Not a simple mediawiki, but a slightly personalized mediawiki, so as to ensure a good structured editing and a safe documentation.

David and the other guys around the Blender Wiki book are very willing to help setting up and writing, so I hope than now they joined docboard we will have a steady update of documentation and attract more and more writers.

After all let see what happened to the last update.

1 - Olivier wrote it,

2 - I merged the XML

3 - Baldassarre found some typos

4 - Eric Merged it

5 - And it is still only in the CVS, not online

With MediaWiki the process would have been

1 - Olivier wrote it

2 - Baldassarre corrected it

And it is always online

(With Open Office is not a solution here, the workflow with OO would have remained the same)

I also believe working offline is quite possible, formatting tags are very easy.

I expect, in the following week(s) to set up the Mediawiki, importing current doc and then opening it.
