Hmm. If the version on zope.org is not canonical, it shouldn't be editable (annotatable, yes, but not editable).
Agreed. But I don't have access on zope.org to change the permissions on the book. I have no idea if the workflow even supports such a state.
Indeed. I don't think the BackTalk feature has really helped all that much, people just abuse it :-(
I disagree, having edited a chapter for the 2.6 edition and working on one for the 2.7 edition, many of the comments are invaluable.
I'd really like to see documentation maintained like other sources, using a revision control system (Subversion would be ideal, but CVS would be a step forward, IMO). Having yet another place to go doesn't help.
+1, a couple people volunteered to help me with appendix B and it's been a pain coordinating that "by hand". As always, lack of time is the big problem. -- Paul Winkler http://www.slinkp.com
