Ok, so hearing all the opinions, I tried using the K12LTSP wiki (powered by phpwiki). I do not know if it is phpWiki or what, but I created my username (that took awhile as it doesn't have good instructions). Then I wanted to create a nice page on the Dell GX1's so I could start a nice Wiki page on that... Well lets just say I will be starting a new topic soon if I get the mediaWiki (the thing that powers Wikipedia) working on a test server. I absolutely think the phpwiki is horrible, and think things could be better somewhere. Since everyone seems used to mailing lists (which I hate...because I hate email and all the work involved in cleaning/organizing..gmail helps...still 20-30 emails a day ICK!) I would like to persue the Wiki side if possible. So, I guess I will see how branched out this community/mail list is. I found it via K12LTSP, so I am not sure if I should try and get a better wiki going for that or what. I will see once I am sure I can get a "better" wiki running. Thanks again for you inputs. <div>On 11/14/06, William Fragakis <<a href="mailto:william@fragakis.com">william@fragakis.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">On Tue, 2006-11-14 at 12:00 -0500, <a href="mailto:k12osn-request@redhat.com">k12osn-request@redhat.com </a> wrote: > Consider digest mode. Quickly scan the topics you want to read and chuck the rest. There are usually 10-15 posts per digest that I receive unless it's a slow day. I vote elist and wiki. Forums are great for hobbyists but a lot of us have schools to admin and need the collective brainpower when disaster strikes. I host a couple of forums, I'm a forum kind of guy, which are great but for this task, I must say, the list works better. A wiki would better organize our collective experience than having it spread about 10 different threads and the poor newbie hamstrung because they didn't enter a good search string. For example, if they search audio, to get audio going, every thread that someone posted a portion of their lts.conf would show up, too, even if those topics were about screen resolutions. regards, William > One more positive side about forums is that I can subscribe to a topic > that > I want to follow.
