I am not that sure if it is that appropriate.
(see
http://wiki.org/wiki.cgi?WhatIsWiki) Allowing everyone
to edit site contents requires the pages to be maintained,
so that advertising and other unwanted, probably illegal
stuff is removed. On the wiki pages at
http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?WikiWikiSandbox one can even place
pictures which is quite precarios since someone could place
illegal ones. Sure, the changer's IP address is stored
but it seems a lot of work to trace somebody which can be
identified by it's IP address only.
Further I don't think that it is that good for storing
config parts for fvwm because users will hardly find
something, since it will be just to much.
I'd rather if we collect config parts, like button setups,
titlebar decorations, menu definitions and fvwm scripts, and
place them together with a screenshot and description on the
web site.
Having them fully maintained ensures higher quality and
saves the user time (and nerves :-)
Regards, Uwe
