    99How does a group of people review a design in wiki format?

    11 Like updating any document, updating a wiki design and implementation document as the project evolves will require some reorganization and continual efforts to keep the wiki up to date, i.e., reflecting current decisions.
     11Like updating any document, updating a wiki design and implementation document as the project evolves will require occasional reorganization and continual efforts to keep the wiki up to date, i.e., reflecting current decisions.  The wiki documents work done and decisions made primarily for later maintainers that may need to revisit certain decisions or add features.

    1313Besides learning a new way to document ones work, there are other issues.  Andrew Lincoln Burrow  [[http://orbit-lab.org/attachment/wiki/Internal/Rbac/RbacResources/p77-burrow.pdf Bur04]] states "The open and collective authorship of hypertext is the basis of wiki. It was pioneered by Ward Cunningham in the Portland Pattern Repository as a means to discuss software engineering strategies. In essence, wiki provides a model for collaboration, because it removes many impediments to shared authorship. However, it does not represent and restrict access to a document, and is thus not in a position to model the movement of a document from a narrower to a wider audience. Where creative ideas are at stake, this is often a barrier to the use of wiki."
