I also think this is a great idea and was kind of what I was hoping we would eventually do with the developer section of OpenACS.org. It would provide a way for improving the access to documentation for each package. The idea would be this:
Each package, module or piece of the OACS would have its own page with links to the packages documentation, SDM page and download page. In addition, there would be a place where bookmarks to revelant threads in the bboards could be made. This would all be in the interest of providing a central location for users and developers to access information quickly.
The flow might work like this. A developer is interested in the categories module. He goes to developer.openacs.org and is directed to the categories page on the site. At that page, he RTFMs the docs on categories. Not finding his answer there, he goes to the bookmarks section and can view all the threads that have discussed the design, problems or other issues related to the categories module. Not finding his answer there, he posts a follow up question on one of the threads or starts a new thread on the bboards.
Does that make sense?
