Sorry, this entire discussion and the following one should have been in the
documentation mailing list.

If you can't organise a thread how can you organise the documentation?

Documentation is important but keeping it up to date comes at a lot of cost
in terms of time.

Some people say they spent a long time writing new documentation - Where is
it? Post a link and see if the core team will include however TYPO3 remains
one of the most documented systems I have come across. Perhaps you are not
finding the right documents?

If you want to update an extension document, just edit the .sxw in the FREE
to download OpenOffice and email it back to the extension author. Easy job
done.

The new typo3.org remains difficult to use and may be the main reason you
are struggling.

If anything useful comes out of this thread it should be this - If you
really need more documentation write something and contribute it to
wiki.typo3.org yourself instead of expecting others to do it. These pages
are indexed by Google (so you can just ask Google to help find them again)
and the wiki pages do not require you to log in or fill out lots of forms
so it should not affect your busy day too much.

Mantra...contrbute to wiki or update the .sxw yourself. 

Enjoy
Matthew
