What about a wiki? I personally don't like forums because I prefer the
content pushed onto me and then let Mozilla do its magic with sorting
and stuff. When I do have a problem however I first do a google unless
there is a wiki present. Nine times out of ten, when users can post
their own answers and help evolve documentation online it helps
everybody, keeps everything organized and is usually much more up to
date. BTW that also means that the main developers don't have to worry
about keeping documentation up to date :-) That alone should be worth
it hahaha.<br>

Specifically, I would go back to the suggestion of a collaborative website
for documentation. Collecting info and organizing into Howto's would reduce
the number of times people ask the same questions. Also, the documentation
could grow as quickly as the project. Unfortunately, I don't have a place
to host it currently. Ideally, the list would just be for issues that
aren't already addressed. Any one else interested in this?

I don't buy that. I think that people are much more likely to check out
documentation linked to directly on the site than they are to utilize
Dr. Google's resources. Even if you google, the results can be
confusing. Also, some people aren't quite sure what question they need
to ask, and some entry-level documentation would help that.
