Re: [Op-torch-general] wiki doubts and questions

[Tyrus M. <ru...@ma...>]

Thanks for responses David and Tim,

   I started this thread not so much out of any 
worry regarding  the current work in progress, but 
from a previously acquired interest in finding the 
right tools for commentary that is document 
centric along the lines of RFC's and  things like 
technical manuals.
  It appears that  *backtalk* is still being used 
for the Zope book
http://www.zope.org/Documentation/Books/ZopeBook/2_6Edition/view
   but it seems to me that comments in some 
sections have been occasionally purged in the past 
as if management may have become overwhelming for 
the reasons that Tim mentioned. The zope book is 
an example of a document that can attract some 
heavy comment traffic.
   I wonder if they have some fixes that have not 
yet joined the sourceforge repository 
...particularly regarding an approval holding 
system for anonymous comments submissions?

Re this from my starting post:
  "at the least, embedded comments should be 
clearly identifiable  by more than a character bar 
and  probably by color rather than mere font 
....which was the case with the old backtalk"

  is there any way to configure Zwiki to colorize 
comments added into an RFC document without 
bothering a human administrator?
