Thanks for forwarding these thoughts to this list for getting feedback.

The issue, that forks look official but aren't cannot really be
prevented. Already now anybody can fork or put the documentation to some
own repository, webpage, blog or whatever. Google is the first instance
to finally get to the documentation. If newcomer folks know
docs.typo3.org or typo3.org we can point them to the right direction.

In general, I'm totally +1 for easing the workflow for non-coders that
don't have a proper Git/Gerrit setup (with commit hooks, public keys, etc.).


All the best
Olly
