it's not just "that we're all missing a key portion of RMS'
announcement".
1. rms isn't god, jesus, buddha, or any other religious leader we are
to follow.
2. despite of 1. - it's a good idea.
3. most people here (at least i expect so )
have contributed to open-source in the way of providing code,
testing, patches, hardware-resources. its the way they are
used to work.
but gnupedia in the meaning of rms's anouncement depends on
articles rather than on technique.
of course it would be nice to have programms capable of converting
various formats. but this is only an sideeffect. their are
millions of people out there who don't need an doc-converter
because they are using winword.
<key-sentence>most peoples here don't *want* to fulfill rms
announcement cause they are used to play with containers but
not with content.</key-sentence>
write articles - convert them into different formats (html, txt, doc,
latex,dvi -whatever you like). include the name of the game into the
title. interlink articles. make them readable, downloadbale or even
editable.
it's so easy.
of course it would be nicer to have marked-up-informations.
<title></title>
<article></article>
<date></date>
<author></author>
<topic></topic>
<target-group></target-group>.........
it also would be nice to have a kind of common template and
article-structure.
but only in my dreams i see windows-users structuring articles
according to content instead of appearence. and you can't build up such
an projects with only 10 % of all users.
