How few pages would I need to encompass the whole beast that is the policies, practises and implemented MediaWiki software features?
That is if I took the time and effort to commit the present state of them to
a fixed format, such as a "beach-reading" ready computer printout from an old matrix printer, 80 columns, 36 or so lines (the old 2000 characters per page, or so, format)?
A second question. Is there a list which pages I should print out to have in my hands that immensely valuable, but essentially ephemeral object? (it really goes without saying that the reference work would stay current all of minutes or less)
I am carefully not broaching the subject of what I would have to do to comply with the GFDL. That doesn't really interest me at all, or perhaps to put it differently, taht would be a beast of a totally different colour, and is welcome to stay within its own worm-can.
