we would want a single person or a strong team to take responsibility
over a document and refine it to the extend that end users would enjoy
reading through.
this is poosible in wiki
The process is probably geared towards invidual contributors with
cooperative feedback and revisions rather than everyone jumping in
and editing portions of a single document that a wiki system would
promote
Wiki system does not promote happzzard editing ......you can set it so
that only people in particular group can edit or configure a workflow
around it....It has support for revisions,unlimited rollbacks, content
expiry, discussions, talkbacks etc...its a very dynamic process
...designed for sole aim for cooperative documentation writing
I can suggest another alternative for documentation can be a good CMS
....I have been using CMS called typo3 (
www.typo3.org) for a while ...It
has built in workflow, Richtext editor, XML support, Dynamic Conversion
support
