It already paid for Worg, there are now many contributors, Worg's documentation is well formatted and rich. See: http://orgmode.org/worg/ Org-mode is famous for being very easy to learn. Actually, it is so easy and useful that non-emacs users are coming to Emacs thanks to Org. The real barrier is to learn the basics about git (or dVCS in general). Which means my grand-mother cannot send patches to ELBB. But AFAIK my grand-mother is not using Emacs anyway, and she doesn't contribute to its community-based documentation. Yes - and wikis are already functionning quite well for specific purposes. The idea being ELBB is to have a public portable database of Emacs-lisp code and documentation. Portable means that anyone can read it offline locally on his computer, public means that anyone can host a mirror and fork it. There are many advantages to this. For example, since ELBB is mere text and you have a local copy, you can grep among all the code contributions and fetch for something you want. Since ELBB contains elisp code you can simply add (add-to-list 'load-path "~/git/elbb/code") to your .emacs.el and have all the code contributions available in Emacs. Another idea: there is a code/ directory: someone can write a script that goes through code/, fetch all the commands, and update the file "command.org" in org (TBA) so that this page always reflects the last contributions. I think emacswiki is good for that - and will always be. I think ELBB can be useful for other stuff. I don't know all of them.
