Yes, that's what I mean.

I would have to agree with Edgar if the end result were a wiki page 
scraping bits from all over the net. However, as a development tool I 
see nothing wrong with it. From my perspective this is useful up until 
the point where it's declared "ready" - at this point this needs to be 
copied into a more permanent location (an upate stream comes to mind).

In which case (I think) you can have your cake and eat it too: An agile 
tool for the development stages that everyone can edit and the "usual" 
permanent location that people are used to.

Cheers,
