Isaac,

While I respect (tremendously) the great work that you have done, and 
continue to do, I would like to point out that there are quite a few 
users who would like to support each other in a more collaborative 
effort than they can do through the formal documentation.  I understand 
you not wanting to fragment the documentation across multiple sources, 
and I agree.  The wiki would simply be a way for the user community to 
gather and (more importantly) *organize* the random topics that pop up 
here on the mailing list more than once.  I don't see this as a 
fragmentation.  It has it's own purpose separate and distinct from the 
official MythTV docs.  As a matter of fact, anybody contributing to the 
Wiki should consider whether their contribution would make more sense 
being in the MythTV docs first.
