I'm sure the wiki will make people come quicker to Indigo, that's a good thing !

However I didn't see discussion pages, maybe we will need a wiki forum to discuss topics, what do you think Radiance ?

First of all, thank!!!

Cansomeone add some links into the main wiki page pointing to various resources like tutorials, manuals, etc. ? Then everyone could add some stuff. For now I don't know from where I should start!

How do you create a new page in the wiki?

OK, wiki is started.
To edit an article, it's easy : click on the link from the homepage, and then on "create this page".

Just my two cents : in order to make it readable and clear, it's very important to respect the wiki syntax, e.g. making sections and subsections when you write an article, so you get table of contents automatically.

I think Deus already managed to create the sub-sections following the doc templates.

Well, I don't know what is the best way to organizee sections, this is just my try.Fell free to add or remove sections.

My next entry : an updated tutorial for blender-->indigo, with the great, sublim, marvellous blendigo exporter.
Too bad we can't use too much html code to get a more fancy look...

I don't want the reference manual on the wiki, particularly the xml reference.
Some things just need to be written by me :)

Ok, it will be on a pdf? Maybe we can only put a link to a page that explain where it is.

And some things just need to be written, dot :) Any input from you is the most wanted, Ono, and even if you edit and then lock a page it's ok to me, since you the best know what we should know.

But as long as you are busy with something else, we need to feed the beast a bit, there are already some undocumented features in it and that's an improvement IMHO.

However could you precise your idea Ono ?

My opinion is the quicker there will be content, the more impact Indigo will have upon users. I have to agree with Radiance that a wiki is much more flexible than a pdf, but one does not exclude the other.

Sweet dreams, take care !

@Radiance: well, drBouvierLeduc put the most work on it, I wasn't expecting such good work that soon... Did he ask you about page templates, with backlinks and everything set up ? He told me he will...

Cheers !

Edit: shortening the page.
There is a mismatch on the page SCENE XML FORMAT between sections 1) and 4). We have:
blahblah
This was changed.
