Well, I personally dislike forums (and mailing lists), because what one
gets is a huge pile of mostly useless or even counterproductive or
clueless posts with some more interesting ones hidden between as a
needle in the haystack, with usually not much means to do any cleanup.

With wikis you can have the same (if noone cares for cleaning up), but
you at least have a means to clean up, if you like.

I see that there is some learning curve for users not used to wikis, but
it is maybe not as much of a problem as it was 5..10y ago, because
nowadays many people have at least used some wiki now and then.

Other than that, try google. :)

Somehow funny to read Microsoft ADs advertising how great standards
compliance is. And what does "sfu" (see url) mean again? :)

Cheers,
