Francis, you're absolutely right on
all accounts.
Of course, it's also worth mentioning that doc is a great place for the
community to make contributions :)

Hey all,
I'm trying to learn databinding; I'm working in release 3.4.2, and the
only documentation I can find is the Wiki.
This is not really that helpful to me, as the Wiki is for the current
release, which is quite a bit different than 3.4.2 (as near as I can tell).
I'm also a bit disturbed that there seems to be a culture in Platform UI
about documenting things in the Wiki, rather than in the actual product
documentation (the ISV guide). I really don't think it serves our
clients
for two reasons:
1) The correct version is not captured (as related in my comment above)
2) People should not be expected to try to find stuff in the Wiki, I know
when I need help the first place I go to is the product's help. That's
where the most complete and accurate information should go.
I know it take some extra effort to do this, but it's really not all that
bad, and it *will really* help out our clients. Our stuff is hard
enough
to use even when well documented.
Thanks!
Francis
