Hi,<br>
<br>
I think the version issue can be simply handled by including at the top
every wiki page a checklist of versions for which the instructions on
the page have been checked. So if you import old tutorial text, only
the gvSIG 1.1.2 box would be ticked. Once someone has a chance the
instructions can be checked against the latest version and either a
tick is recorded against its version number or the text changed to
reflect what is different. If the tool is totally revamped and separate
page could be developed.<br>

<pre wrap="">I agree that there should be a Wiki. Especially if everybody contributes what they have already written there should be a basis for expansion in no time.
In addition, many tools work the same way in 1.9 as in the older version so there should be nothing wrong with extracting the tutorials on these from existing documentation.
I recently produced this Survey and GIS guide available here:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://openarchaeology.net/project/survey-and-gis-manual">http://openarchaeology.net/project/survey-and-gis-manual</a>
It is based on gvSIG 1.1.2, but one task is specific for 1.9 and most other chapters are transferable.

Maybe a good idea is to put hands on the wikis. Certainly a 500 pages books is a hard task but if each us write one or two pages we can reach a 40 pages booklet in no time.
I myself have some wikis (in Spanish) here [1] and there [2] to help out my students, some have already been translated into English [3] by others but, as far as they don't have tons of text, I myself can do an english version that can be proofread easily in doowikis.

The Wiki, for gvSIG, would be really useful.
Wolfgang Qual and others proposed it in the past but, in the end, this
suggestion has never been applied.
Luckily for us, gvSIG's development is proceeding so fast that any
tutorial proposed becomes outdated in no time :-)

A wiki is just the right documentation tool for such a product! We could build a gvSIG wiki on wikidot real fast. In fact, unless someone wants to say why not, I'll set the w(iki)heels in motion...
