Hopefully people with subversion access will be disciplined. But I think you're right, it should be someone's responsibility to oversee the wiki and keep things ordered. I think this page demonstrates that:
https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/Guidelines/MaintenanceGuidelines
It that a compliment or not ;-) (I'm sure it can still be improved!)
Can we copy a snapshot of the wiki to the (definitely read-only) Boost site with every release?
My original plan was to just use the wiki, but I think you might right. By using snapshots, viewing the page will be faster and it'll >allow people to freely edit the wiki pages. The workflow would be something like: edit the page, ask on the list for a review, if >accepted the website manager imports the snapshot. Sounds okay?
Yes - though I'm not sure if we need formal reviews - just asking on boost-docs list if anyone is unhappy might do as well. And if only we could get the releases more often, we can just snapshot "where the docs are now" - in the knowledge that complaints will be dealt with 'next time?. Paul --- Paul A.
