There is a web site called Wikipedia,
which is an open-source world encyclopedia. Anyone can initiate/author a
topic, and all of the peers, who know something about the subject, provide peer
review and editing, thus ensuring that topics remain and evolve to an accurate
description of whatever the topic is.
I have seen the Wiki software (user
friendly editing and posting type software) used for another open source topic
(although I can not remember the topic).
What about a Wiki style Amibroker User and
Application Encyclopedia---written and updated by all of the users here
qualified and motivated to write an “item”. Tomasz might find this
to be an excellent and time efficient way for him to see a comprehensive “encyclopedia”
on Amibroker emerge. OTOH, he might spend more time correcting items which are
incorrect than he saves from seeing a “manual” emerge from the
users.
Just a thought….
The Wiki Site is listed below.

imho, The most useful to the greatest
number of new, current and future users would simply be well-written
documentation organized in chapters by specific topic.
The advantage of well-prepared
printed/electronic information is that users at all levels of
expertise can cut-n-paste examples and work through the material at a time
convenient to them, at a place convenient to them, and at a pace convenient to
them.

Thanks Joe. I remember seeing information on the
thread about the
conference last year (it was about when I started
using AB) but I
didn't know it was an annual event. I'll give it
some thought.
