Will Wikis make the traditional forms of documentation obsolete?
Hie People,   I have started working on wiki lately and have
fallen in love with it. My organization has made a collective
decision of moving all end-user documentation on wiki. While we
haven't yet stopped sending the PDF's we have certainly stopped
making framemaker books. The content available on wiki is
everything. While it has certainly helped us get the user/client
comments and feedback faster than earlier versions in frame
books, I am not really certain if we will stop using the earlier
formats altogether.  Do you believe that moving to wiki will
make the traditional formats of user documentation obsolete?

"on paper" is a document, that application works "in this way".
If it doesn't,  customer can report a bug. If we have an online
(so easy to change on software producer side) documentation,
there is no point
