[Tres Seaver, on Sat, 22 Apr 2000] :: I think changes to wiki to make parsing simpler are likely to damage :: WikiNature; I would be willing to be convinced otherwise, however. I agree completely; however I wasn't suggesting changing WikiNature, but rather looking to create a new NotWiki -- something informed by WikiNature, but which would be more useful in the particular case where the "audit trail" of the discussion needs later to be repackaged into something else -- documentation, specifications, whatever. A. Wikis are non-linear. That's good. B. Documentation is linear. That's good. The question is, how do you turn A into B when the time is right? The answer is you don't. But maybe you can with something that is NotWiki, but WikiLike. A. Good Use Case for Wiki: * Free-ranging discussion about Extreme Programming on the Extreme Programming Wiki. * Eventual product: The Wiki Itself. B. Questionable Use Case for Wiki? * Using Wiki as a documentation source for Zope APIs. * Eventual product: API Documentation.
