[Erp5-dev] ERP5 Wiki

[Jean-Paul Smets]

Hi,

Based on multiple suggestions and advice, we have setup a wiki for ERP5. A 
few of us have been testing it for a while and I think we are happy with 
the result: it seems we can now produce more contributions and documents in 
shorter time with this wiki than we used to do. So, the ERP5 Wiki will 
likely become the official ERP5 community site.

The wiki was guided by the principle "Less is More" (should I call this 
Sebastian's principle or is there a reference ?). So, it focusses on what 
matters to most of us: download, documentation, screenshots, demos. 

There is also a section discussion and a resource library section for those 
parts which are useful in a second phase. This part is a bit hidden.

I wrote a short guideline for contribution:

We are going to start feeding it from now with documentation.

JPS.

PS. we chose moinmoin wiki because it is python based and because we found 
that it had excellent usability (it has already been used a lot by many 
free software projects). One interesting feature in moinmoin is GUI editing 
of pages and of drawing. You can have a look at:
