[Bf-docboard] Do we need a Blender Manual?

[Kesten Broughton]

my ideal learning support is a video tutorial, with a table of contents
with time markers into the video.  However, from a maintenance perspective,
it's so much easier to change a few lines of text than to re-record part or
all of a video when blender ui changes.  And it's much more friendly to
download an entire wiki to hardrive than a video lib for people who have to
work offline or have bad connections.

No doubt about it, wiki is an essential tool.
