Hi,

If the docs package is in user/*, then it's cluttering up the application manager and you need twice the amount of effort to get it promoted to Extras. If it's not in user/*, then the user has yet another invisible package sucking up space.

I see definite potential here - especially if we require a standard docs
template that people can follow & just fill out, the way Bugzilla
provides a bug template.

We'd need to have an easy way to augment wiki pages with things which
are vital in docs like screenshots, though.

Cheers,
Dave.
