Hi,
I looked into how wikipedia organizes specific content areas. They use Portals
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Portal
"The idea of a portal is to help readers and/or editors navigate their way through Wikipedia topic areas through pages similar to the Main Page. In essence, portals are useful entry-points to Wikipedia content."
Sounds exactly what we want to achieve i think. For an example portal have a look at this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Linux
They even have ready made templates. The only thing our wiki instance is missing is the ParserFunctions extension. I talked to Frank and he is looking into that.
I think it's a great way of organizing our developer documentation and once we have the extension and the templates in our wiki everybody can make use of this technique. I also think that the policies around these portals look very good and we should adopt them too.

What do you think?
