OT: Cakewalk Wiki

Jim Wright has proposed on more than one occasion that we start a user-based "Cakewalk Wiki". A Wiki is a specialized website where end users are allowed to contribute to the content. The Wiki is not a forum and it is a replacement for www.project5.com, it is a special place for us to work on our own documentation and tutorials and tips as a community. It would include sections for all Cakewalk products, probably starting off with Project5 and perhaps Sonar.

Jim has offered to set it up and host it and Mike West (who hosts Sonorama) has also offered to do the same. Both would need some help from all of us forum members in order to build up the content.

Look at this thread for more info: http://forum.cakewalk.com/m.asp?m=471500&mpage=1&key=

Anyone game and willing to contribute their knowledge to the content?

I am super high speed at work and finicky slow dialup at home. I know where you're comin' from.

I would chip in any of the PDFs or any future writings that I post to my own site so that they also exist on the Wiki.

Anyone else?

A FAQ would be good. Also, the tip jars.

Hey I'm still game, I just hadn't heard from anyone.

I already know pm wiki but I wonder if media wiki might be more appropriate.

Well anybody drop me a line mxw at sonarama.com if I least get a few votes I'll get started ... ??? ...

Hey I'm still game, I just hadn't heard from anyone.

I've watched this thread with real interest, but I'm really hesitant to commit to something that I've not sure I can deliver on. Things are really picking up for me here, and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future [3-6 months]. I might even have to drop off the volume of input here at the forum.

As much as it pains me to entertain the thought of actually sticking to a schedule, that indeed may be the only way out. You guys are welcome to anything of mine that's already out there, and any new stuff that will pop up from time to time. I just don't want to make any promises of deep involvement that I'd be unable to keep.

Just a quick question, though, from someone who doesn't fully understand the mechanics of this: How do we go about directing those in need of the info to the WIKI in a reliably consistent and obvious manner? [And please don't tell me that the solution is a curt RTFW ...]
