I have pretty much the same reservations against Wikis as Brett does;
it seems more productive if people would just use python-dev to ask
questions of the "how do I" kind (and probably of the "do I really need
to" kind as well).

I don't mind somebody collecting this information into whatever place
more permanent and accessible than a mailing list archive; I think
I would normally add them to the developer FAQ instead of to the
Wiki, primarily because I can memorize the location of the FAQ better.

Martin
