A good new feature would be to allow user contributed notes in the refdoc.
Indeed, I agree! PHP was where I started and the user contributions in the
PHP doc was priceless. We could solve that with Disqus
disqus is certainly a quick solution, but i wonder if it is good in the long run.
i am concerned about having content that is valuable for us in the hands of a 3rd party.
ideally a comment system would ensure that the comments are under a sharable
license (eg CC-BY-SA) so that comments can not only be moderated but also
modified and improved.
at least it appears that disqus has an export feature so it should be possible
to export comments if needed.
