A key thing is that no ONE person makes
contributions. Lots of folks write or edit material or both. The
more people who contribute even a small amount of learning or teaching about
something they have done, the more the reference work will grow. Further,
people will only write about the things that interest them, so the content grows
accordingly...initially with big gaps and perhaps not a lot of organization, but
eventually growing into a valuable work.
A couple of us had compiled some outlines of things needed
to learn about AB. This was done over a year ago and is thus somewhat out
of date. Nonetheless, this could be an organizational starting point and I
could dust off these old outlines and see what it would take to turn some of
them into Wiki pages---but it would be nice to see some positive suction,
hopeful comments, and an indication that some folks would contribute some
original content. Think about Herman's tutorial from way back, on
AddtoComposites. Effort like that is the kind of contribution
that would make a wonderful, information-rich AB Wiki.
Ken
I guess the big question, Who is going to volunteer to do all
this
work on the wiki site???
There is already facility to add comments to
the online AFL functions
that is clearly not fully utilised as it takes
someone actually
writing something to add. We cannot expect TJ to do all this
work and
keep AB moving forward.
No point running around getting things
planned if nobody plans to do
the effort of entering to the site.
If you
plan to have everyone write and add their own thing, then
forget organising
unless someone is prepared to do the organising.
It all sounds good, but
so far very few people have ever come forward
to do the work, and then
continue to do so for long time to come.
Yes I am negative about it, It
is good idea............. but.
