There has been action, but it takes time, something which we are short
on atm.

Agreed.

I am happy for the official docs to be in sitemgr, plain text and PDF
available from docs.phpgroupware.org, and the wiki as a dev platform.

Not if it is hosted on docs.phpgroupware.org it won't ;)

I do not support the use of tikiwiki as a repository for our docs.  We
should use tavi (which has been ported to phpgw).  I would also like to
see us use a whole phpgw install for docs.  PDFs and plain text in the
vfs etc.

I do not support the use of a phpgw domain which points to a site which
does not use phpgw software.  I also have some issues over the accuracy
of the information which is in the wiki.  I have corrected this and my
changes were removed.

A summary of the meeting will be posted.

This will be considered at the time.
