[Nix-dev] NixOS-Wiki alternative. Was: What license does the content of the nixos wiki and the manuals have?

[Rok Garbas]

talk to any tech writer... wiki is _NOT_ a documentation. it is the most
perverse form of somthing looking like documentation. the only thing that
wiki can be good for is to fill the time gap until "real" documentation is
produced.

i would rather see the discussion why things from wiki are not in manual,
or how to extend current manual with a collection of tutorials.

and i couldn't care less about which tools do i have to use. although i
would vote -1 for hackyll with requirement of 1G to download a simple
static page generator.

but i understand that we as developers rather talk about the tools and not
the content of documentation :)
