THIS is the info I'd like available, although I will miss the witty exchanges between Helen and Dmitry!!
<SNIP>
I use SVN, and I am NOT a wiki professional, but I get the feeling a small amount of editing, cut and past is a wee bit easier than looking for/fixing conflicts in SVN. I KNOW it's easier than CVS. I am NOT a CVS fan...
>I think this thread (http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/firebird-support/message/98946) is EXACTLY the kind of thing that would "cut & paste"....OK, Dmitry's out-of-context comment at the end that sent me back therapy could be left out. But, a little chronological order, cut out the junk, leave Helen's "out on a limb" comment for emphasis, and BOOM....wiki.

> conflict resolution with a click (restore older, delete, undelete, etc.)This comparison isn't apples-to-apples. My HDD wiki entry doesn't need to have correct grammar, syntax or spelling; I don't have to slog through the work of others to manually resolve conflicts. I copy/paste it in chronological order, warts and all; someone else can clean it if they don't like my grammerification or misunderestimate my spelling ability...
