---- '''From GPS re: the message board''' [GPS]: A message board might be useful as a companion to the Tcl'ers Wiki and the Tcl'ers Chat. The *golden nuggets* of information could be preserved on the wiki, in a hopefully easier format to navigate. Tracking many conversations is just too painful without a more structured display. As an alternative we could have a standard response of "use news://comp.lang.tcl instead," and pull in the good posts from there (as CL and others already do). ---- '''From [LV] re: prefix in the titles and multiple questions per page''' [LV] I prefer NOT to have prefixs in the titles - makes the titles far too long and wordy. I also prefer multiple questions on a wiki page rather than one question per page. However, I do also prefer that the questions be related to a common topic. Finally, I highly prefer seeing the questions moved to relevant existing pages, when possible - for instance, if the question is about [foreach], then that's where the question and answer should go; not, in my opinion, to some new page. New pages should be reserved for new topics . ---- '''From [RS] re: putting questions at the bottom of a page''' [RS] The recent rush in low-info page creation disappointed me. We had a tradition for years that, for instance, people having a question about [grid] just put it at bottom of that page, and some or more helpful souls answered it right there. Seems better to me than adding a hierarchy of not-always-obvious concepts on top of precise questions. ----- '''From [LES] re: the add comment feature''' [LES]: I don't understand the question. The absolute majority of wikit's pages are but a long series of comments. Does this proposal mean comments on the comments??! Or a "read-only" section segregated from an editable section?!! Or what? ---- [MAK] - Date is not nearly as important as figuring out what the majority of wiki users want and thus pissing off the fewest people. [CMcC] Yeah, the vote finishes when it finishes. It should be fairly obvious to any reasonable observer when that occurs. ---- [MAK] No, this is not the same thing at all. That is used as a note of what has been changed on the page, like with a CVS checkin comment, not to add notes to the page its self. ---- '''And finally: an explosive picture and a little wisdom''' [http://www.gulfcoasttechnology.org/images/explosion.jpg] One should not rush ... to solutions before understanding the problem
