Well, then, perhaps it's time the LDP changed its ways.

The LDP was formed many years ago, before most nerds could pronounce
"wiki". Its processes were based on assumptions that were appropriate
then. Are they still appropriate?

I'm intrigued by the idea of a set of links to external documents
(wiki or otherwise) that meet standards of reliability and
readability. They should be labeled as external links, like many
organizations' links to external documents. These would supplement
existing LDP documents. Isn't hyperlinking to external documents
rather the whole point of the World Wide Web?
