What I meant by reworking the front page of the wiki is more than a splash page, just a bit less than right now: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Quaid/Two_prong_wiki_main_page I see the wisdom of what has been done on the front page with the wiki in the state that it currently is. - Karsten [1] Kbase or whatever it is: important that it's easy to create articles, easy to categorize, easy to cross-link to other relevant articles, etc. The Docs Project toolchain is not so easy to use. Although the guides are gaining in breadth and depth, there are always going to be matters of time, brevity, and scale that need to be served by a $small_article_machine. The latter could be a wiki, another type of CMS, a kbase, etc. Right now, it's the wiki. -- name: Karsten 'quaid' Wade, Sr. Community Gardener team: Red Hat Community Architecture uri: http://TheOpenSourceWay.org/wiki gpg: AD0E0C41
