Has anyone started compiling a single list of pointers (or done a  
survey of sources) for basic OSGeo project documentation?  From a  
marketing perspective it would be nice to know the state of  
documentation for: install/compile, administrators, new users/getting  
started, advance customisation, related books, etc. - for each  
project.  Then we could all be a bit wiser when, myth or not, people  
critique FOSS as not having enough useful documentation.

I put together part of a page here, and quickly added a few test urls  
to feel out the idea.  It may be overkill or it need some tweaking,  
but you are more than welcome to add your favourite docs here or hack  
this wiki page to make it more useful:
