Hi dmb.
I appreciate your well thought out comment. If your not going to
participate and change what you don't like, that's on there, then a
comment is the next best thing.
In response to your concerns.
Firstly. I can tell you I'm the only person to have edited the MOQ Wiki
in possibly more than six months. I can also say that while I did not
ask the questions on the Questions section I saw nothing indicating to
me they were folly (a good perspective to take) and so responded to them
according to my own understanding. I claim no moral authority on the
MOQ and understood while I wrote my answers that if someone didn't agree
with what I had written they could simply change it themselves or
complain about a response on the Discussions page for that page (every
page has one). The last and worst option would be that someone not
participate at all.
Anyway, if you like I'll remove the Questions page altogether if that's
what you want? Or the offending questions? Or have you got some
questions you'd like on there? Actually, please tell me questions you'd
like on there!
Not having attended the first ever MOQ Conference it appears a shame to
me that the events of more than a year ago now, are going to hinder what
I see as something with as yet completely untapped potential.
Right now for me though, I would like it to be as friendly to newcomers
as humanly possible. So your feedback, if that's all there is, was
welcomed.
Cheers for now, I've got some MOQ Wikipages to create!
David.
