Hej! Zegnat - no, Swedes are exempt, they speak better English than most Brits I know...
Point taken, but I guess there's different ways to document stuff - snippets of example <pre>code</pre> in place can be handy (put somewhere like http://snipplr.com/) so it's more permanent; the odd screenshot or two can help; and I personally want to start doing screencasts because clients can't read
My thought was more merely to encourage each developer to sit back and say "OK, if I hadn't just coded this myself, where might I need to do a little more explaining to someone looking at this 'cold'. I appreciate that's more work, but the warm fuzzy feeling would be priceless And in the same way that an email received via a form is more predictable to read than a free-form one, setting out 'issues' in a regular order might be possible?
Also, there are people like me who could have fun creating more complex templates once we 'get' the plugins and could incorporate them more easily - one of the reasons I like GS is because I'm really more of a front-end kinda guy
I know it's still early days, but GS is now pretty popular as the cms "Lite" choice - thanks in no small part to your multilevel menu methinks Speaking of which - I can't seem to get the animation effect to work, I must be missing something. Now, if only there was some documentation...
;P
