I was just thinking about what's happening now in the Python
community. A well-known Python developer dumped all of the official
documentation into a Wiki / content management system, and the
community is busy filling in gaps, and adding new information. I
realize that the Python community is a a few orders of magnitude
larger than Chicken's, but perhaps opening up the docs for community
editing might alleviate the burden from Felix and the core developers?

Just a thought,
