[OSGeo-Edu] Why not use the wiki? My reasons... let me know if I am off in my thinking

Hi all-

I had a few moments while on a travel break to check email.
I'm not sure where Ned, Sasha and Maili are based on all of the helpful insight
that you've all provided. We really appreciate the energy and interest.

Quoting Markus Neteler <neteler at osgeo.org>:

So regarding document management and delivery, for any particular educational
module could we:

1) Use Subversion to store the latest release and new derivatives in process;
2) Use Mediawiki to somehow create pages with lots of relevant associated
categories (e.g., GRASS, Edu-Beginner, etc) and then develop some main search
page that describes these tags and then have it find metaentries with links to
the subversion files?

If I don't have this right, can someone suggest how this could be done?
Don't know when I'll be online again...
