An incredible useful recommendation:

If I click "here" I get a security warning either on my PC or my N800. So far so good. Ok, now the page tells me there is an old wiki. Fine. But where to go for wiki lessons and answers ?
The layout of the page is -to be really nice- terrible. It reads "This page was last modified 08:26, 19 July 2008"

Next I click User documentation: (Security warning again) and I find 21 documentation pages. I rest my case.

Can we please keep the ITT Wiki ? The ITT wiki is useful for end-users: the Maemo Wiki is fine, but limited and aimed at a much more technical audience (or incrowd).

Just for the record: I appreciate the Maemo Community 's work very much. Without this work the N8X0 series can’t survive. And the products are Excellent ! I certainly do not want to complain about the Maemo Wiki Pages. I understand very well that if I want to use the Maemo pages I should invest more time and effort. If I can find this time I certainly will. But right now I am just a simple end-user.

Last but not Least. I did notice, General, that you are one of the most active contributors to the ITT and I do respect your contributions. Most of them are helpful, however sometimes very detailed and technical.

I would appreciate nonetheless that “Senior Experts” would limit themselves to their expertise. Answers like : “Go to Wiki”, or “Do a search”, or "This answer is wrong" don’t help the Maemo community or the ITT community. You can’t control end-users or Newbies!

May I suggest, General, you update Maemo Wiki first, or even better: harmonize both wiki’s, before you make such a reference ?

I can only hope that the ITT Wiki remains understandable for “dummies” like me ! It is now and I appreciate the content, even if it is not always up-to date (Neither is the Maemo Wiki)

It crossed my mind that the ITS should not be accessible for 'Senior Members'. Just joking of course, and I appreciate that most of the senior members do consider their audience !
